Moderation Questions
The last iteration of the moderation discussion thread was a complete disaster. Numerous attempts to keep it on topic fa
Because this is just posting about another poster which is already bordering on being insults. Such discussions aren't on topic here, and they tend to lead to just yelling back and forth.
However, as jalfrezi seems cool with it, I'll let it go.
In fact no, I'm not at all cool with having my identity constantly questioned like this by these two posters. It's just another form of the bullying they were indulged in with vic.
The rules clearly state, and were restated by crossnerd, that posters are to address the contents of posts and not constantly harp on about posters' attributes, real or imagined.
..Or maybe I'm wrong. 😃

Does this include constantly badgering people on where they live or are from, and/or denying someone's realities?
Asking for a friend 
Someone claimed an anecdote in support of a false claim he was making, and got called out on it.
I judge people partly by the friends they keep.

Lol. I hope (for your sake) that this is performative.
I don't like the moderation rules but if people are going to be banned according to the rules then those rules should be enforced across the board.
Accusing posters of being other posters is srs bidness, guys.
Doesn't matter what you or anyone else thinks of the rules, they are the rules by which people are allowed to post here without getting banned, apparently.
If you disagree I'll let you take it up with crossnerd.
There is no rule about questioning the identity of a poster. The "fact" that it is a form of bullying is something you made up.
Sounds like your issue is more that the poster you are being compared to is almost universally considered to be terrible.

I am not even comparing him to anyone I am just accusing him of account sharing because of different play styles.
He counters "let's use IP" when they might simply play from the same house for what I know.
I accept it might be some kind of extreme mood change though
Did anyone think they were the same person?
None of us did. We thought one lent his account to the other. And the IP trace wouldn't matter that much there, but I don't want to get into the weeds on how I'd handle that. We can move on.
Two people can use the same VPN from anywhere in the world if they want to appear to be communicating from the same host IP, amongst other methods.
Or one could route traffic for the other.
I am not suggesting that posters here are involved in some sort of highly technical ploy to post from the same account, just pointing out that it's not that hard to pass the IP checks.

lol ok now this is becoming more fun. You'll recognise our shared house from google maps - the Palestime flags that adorn the entire exterior are a real giveaway.
Here's what our shared roof looks like now.
I should have clarified that I meant poster A logging in as poster A (before he was banned) would show the same IP as poster A logging in as poster B and poster B logging in as poster B.
Boring!!!!!
I'm just here for the engineering challenges.
FWIW, I haven't seen anything from the Jalfrezi account making me think it was Victor. Jalfrezi doesn't have a lot of sympathy for Israel's situation, or Israeli's themselves; but he has never evidenced the pure disgust and complete dehumanization of (((Zionists))) that was a major feature of Victor's posting.
Plenty of sympathy for the Israelis who don't support their disgusting government, and for all of them who were killed or injured.
Civvies don't deserve this ****. Terrorism is mostly valid when the targets are government or military. Once you start blowing up or shooting normal people trying to get on with their lives you've completely lost the plot.
Pretty sure this is against forum rules (can't say a country is that, even if you disagree with a position held by 95% of the residents of a country).
Nevermind that the current Israeli government doesn't have 95% approval.
How do I know? I got told that by mods because I disagree with female genital mutilation
