Hehe you don't have to spam to get above settler.

I think whenever someone is near a new title they up their activity a bit.

War4ever · January 25, 2003, 18:42

i think a level called DD should be created....ming deserves credit for the name

Double Deity, only he and Mark G are anywhere near it anyways.......

it would set them apart from the other spam, er posters

Yeah... right...

Banned members do NOT appear in the member list

Your DL is still in the data base.

Give it up AH, the evidence has been presented... and the judgement has been made... and you are just looking sillier everytime you claim it isn't you. But if that's what you want... go ahead I guess... Even though it's tough to look sillier than you already do

Alexander's Horse · January 25, 2003, 19:16

Well I just wanted to check this poster's details since you keep bringing it up.

Ming · January 25, 2003, 19:27

Why bother... you made them up...

Dauphin · January 25, 2003, 19:47

You two are getting a lot of post count mileage out of the phantom poster.

Skanky Burns · January 25, 2003, 20:04

They probably planned this before-hand, to keep the distance between themselves and those lowly Emperors.

Alexander's Horse · January 25, 2003, 20:42

I know - its bizarre - Ming banned a newbie.

Just making yourself look more and more silly AH... Anybody that has seen the proof just laughs at you.
Maybe it's time to post it all again so other people can join in on the laughter. Your DL's first two posts ever on this site were indeed classics, but just a "tad" obvious

DrSpike · January 25, 2003, 20:45

Kudos for persistence, but turn the record over Horsey, we know he was your DL.

Alexander's Horse · January 25, 2003, 21:22

What proof? Basically you got someone who gets similar IP numbers as me, presumably using the same dial up ISP, and made the mistake of posting when I was banned. Hardly convincing - Admit it - you just ran with an off topic rumour.

You think I don't know how to hide a DL?

The disturbing aspect is some innocent nobody got permanently banned and is probably still scratching their head about it.

ixnay · January 25, 2003, 21:43

Alexander's Horse · January 25, 2003, 22:06

Consider for a moment if it was you who were banned like that and then have a good laugh about it.

Identical IP and servers... and the first post was made right after you were restricted, and it defended your actions... and then only posts when you are restricted...
Did he post on topic first or even off topic... no, his first two posts were long winded defenses of you...

I rest my case.

The funny aspect about this is that you really think somebody is going to believe you.

But not IP number - come clean Ming. I never get the same number twice, why would he? I use Australia's largest isp - about 70-80% of the market. Surprise, surprise, someone else here uses it!!!!!

Not true. That was years ago iircc. And only one time.

Quote:

That simply isn't true, that poster posted nothing about me when you restricted him - show the posts. There was no defence of me, he just happened to post at the wrong time. And I believe that poster has posted on topic. My theory is he reemerged for the launch of Civ3. I've seen him on the civ 2 forum.

Quote:

Which is falling apart, so it probably does need a rest.

Some of your posts here have been quite misleading.

Ming · January 26, 2003, 03:41

I showed his first two posts he ever made earlier in this thread... go back and look at them. They were talking specifically about YOU and your restriction... amazing that he posted right after you were restricted... about you... and with IDENTICAL IP addresses and server..

Give it up... you just look silly.

And yes, he only has posted when you were restricted. Anybody can look up his posting history

spartak · January 26, 2003, 05:26

How can you look up the posting history of someone who doesn't appear on the member's list?

Yeah, like anyone else would be silly enough to use Telstra.

Crap. Those are not the 2 first posts he ever made! He's been around a lot longer than that.

So what? Is everyone who posts after me my DL? And you have mislead everyone on this thread by making it look like those posts just happened and that was why he was banned. So dishonest of you, tut, tut. Those posts were made 1 or 2 years ago!!!!!!

Quote:

and with IDENTICAL IP addresses and server..

Yes, just like several million other Australians. Again, so what? Bigpond has several million customer with IDENTICAL IP addresses - WOW!

No you look silly, your "case" is full of holes

Quote:

Wrong again. I have seen this poster online and posting when I have been. Its like the big lie - say it over and over and someone will believe you eh Ming!

And yes please - post his posting history. And then tell us how many posts were about me. 1%? 2%? 0.03%? Did you post the only posts that were ever about me? And reading the posts btw, they don't seem to be about me at all!!!

The fact is you acted on rumour rather than fact and you never asked me.

MrWhereItsAt · January 26, 2003, 10:04

Erm... where is this going?

Dauphin · January 26, 2003, 10:06

Perhaps Ming could send the guy an e-mail and see what response he gets.

Rasbelin · January 26, 2003, 10:13

I know. I still wonder how AH is going to explain that.

Dauphin · January 26, 2003, 10:24

If he can get a hold of him, he and AH can post simultaneously and have a conversation to disprove Ming.

I'm sure AH can find someone out there who would be willing to use the DL's account to exonerate him.

Well the second statement shows why the first would prove nothing.

Hmmmm... his join date was 12/7/00... and following is the first post he made based on his posting history on 12/8/00

Quote:

Can a new guy comment?

I saw this argument. Mr Ming asked them to stop and after a couple of parting shots each they did. Ming just asked them to stop nicely, he didn't seem ticked off, he didn't issue a warning or threaten bans or anything, and they complied pretty fast. So it looked like it was all over.

Then a long time after it was over and done with, like about 4 or 5 hours later, the Mark G guy comes online and brings the long dead thread to the top and bans the Horse guy! My conclusion was the Mark guy did it because he likes the Lancer guy and doesn't like Alexander Horse.

Is that a problem?

And this was posted right after your little run in with Lancer that got you restricted... Hmmmm... he joins right after you get restricted, and posts this as his first post.
He doesn't post on topic or off topic first... he joins up and his first comment is that MarkG doesn't like horsie.

Yeah... identical IP addresses from two different servers that you use... not one, but two

Aren't you doing the same thing

The big difference, not matter how many times you deny it, no one will believe you

I posted his first two posts here... they kind of sum it up nicely. And the rest of history is like following your restrictions history. THE ONLY time he has ever posted is when you have been restricted. And then, after he doesn't post for a long time, he magically reappeared the next time you got restricted. At that point, I did the IP search and restricted your DL.

Quote:

The fact is you acted on rumour rather than fact and you never asked me.

One... why would ask you? "Hey AH, is this one of your DL's"....

And second... I restricted him based ON FACTS, as I have pointed out above.

So deny all you want... try to claim that it wasn't done on facts... make yourself look silly... I don't really care.
Your DL is toast, and that's a simple fact.

And yes, finding a friend of yours to pose as Rimmer so you can claim you are both on line at the same time would really prove nothing... it would just be another lame attempt on your part... just like your DL was in the first place....

Rasbelin · January 26, 2003, 13:44

Ming,

wouldn't it be clever to close this thread as Horsie won't give up and this has gone quite off-topic?

Alexander's Horse · January 26, 2003, 19:07

I agree, this isn't getting us anywhere.

Dauphin · January 26, 2003, 20:02

I could have told you that two pages ago.
