*sigh* Do I think it could be Kyle ? Of course. Especially as everyone seems to know about his last login. But, as I've said many times, if everyone who shows any sign of being 'unusual' is immediately accused of being Kyle, then doesn't that mean he's been allowed to change this site for the worse ? I'd rather live in a world where people are judged on their actions. If he's Kyle or not, if he starts trolling, then he'll be treated as a troll. Until he does that ( the signin notwithstanding ), if he's Kyle or not, if he's civil, why should he be tarred and feathered on an assumption, no matter how likely it seems ? How would you feel if you joined an online forum and were immediately accused of being someone else ? That's my main concern, to try and make sure people are given a chance around here.

I applaud the sentiment, but... the post was worthless. Even without considering Kyle's history of trying to introduce new "personalities" without putting any real effort into it (answering questions on the forums... asking questions on the forums...), you've gotta admit that the post served no purpose beyond subtly suggesting that Aussies can't spell - and i'm sure anyone interested can find that out elsewhere... ;P

Ok, how 'bout this: he's been allowed to change this forum for the worse. Do you really disagree?

stringname="" Aharon Gold-somethignrather 1.0 (3 votes) I can't think of every name, but you may have run into him it once or twice. Basically he's a troll. If you plug one hole, comes up somewhere else and pretends to be a newbie :rolleyes: Roswell

Why not? Jesus is a common name in Mexico. A surname could be anything (Bush, Wood, etc). My surname, Selormey, in my language means "God Loves Man". Best regards, Paul.

I choose Hell. At least I'll be getting some while all the angels are comparing the luminosity of their halos.

Oh geez... No one, absolutely no one, would be called Jesus freak. For a start, they would not allow it to be put on his birth certificate (you cannot call a child something offensive, for example if I was a Mr. Burner I could not call my child Nigger or Jew for [I would hope] obvious reasons). Rama's name is perfectly valid in his culture. That you can't see that, but defend someone who openly insults LOVE!, is honestly very surprising.

OK - so Kyle is the only person on the *earth* who would consider calling themselves 'jesusfreak' ? Seriously ? I didn't say it's not him, I said we can't know for sure, and I said that if we treat anyone who looks unusual like this, if we become hostile to anyone who is new and doesn't immediately fit in 100%, then surely we let him win ? Here's another question - if someone joins the site, and acts in a civil way, who cares who that person is in real life ? I don't care. So, why attack someone on a suspicion, before they have done anything to deserve it ?

On a professional Windows programming forum, pretty much yes. When a new account appears with a name like that and then proceeds to post only crap in the Lounge and Soapbox, including fine examples such as this[^], there is very little room to make a mistake. And to be honest, if you do make that mistake given they match the template, does it really matter? I do appriecate what you are saying but there are only so many times someone can call fire before this sort of thing will happen.
