However BM I disagree that SJ has violated rle #1 with his / their Sarcasm. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcasm Some folks don't like it (sarcasm) and that is fine. Heck SSGA, Burner, me and many others have beaten Fo Shiz into submission many times..:lol:we were being sarcastic
That is a great point. I have a few users on my ignore list too. DeeZee has brought up good points also.
So, if SJ stays, I assume it's okay for the rest of us to create fake names and post under them also? Who is John Galt?
I know but we can make one get a wig and a fake beard. Get some big clothes and put some pillows in their.
Like I've said before (and will no doubt need to say again), I'm a little slow on the uptake on some of these things, but here is what I understand/think the situation to be: 1) Posts from multiple IP's just means he posts from more than a single internet account (wouldn't that be the same for us if we post from home and then post from work or log on at a friend's house?). 2) Steven Jackson is not his real name. 3) He, she or it is not necessarily a 2nd screen name for someone else that posts here, but it is a possibility. Please feel free to correct me if this is incorrect.
I often read SJ posts for entertainment. SJ is an STR icon. As long as everyone understands "he" isn't real then just go with it. Maybe we can include him in the newbie list and have a disclaimer on him...Steven Jackson on this site is fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental. So take no personal offense. SJ is to be used only for entertainment purposes. Comments, suggestions and ideas from SJ are soley for enjoyment and are not to be taken seriously.
I'm relatively new here, so I don't know the history... At first I thought he must be some clown from MTBR. Now that I know a little more information, I don't see the harm of keeping him around...
I have to agree here, some of his banter violates most TOS agreements. I know he's not real, but he has riled some people and even managed to get them banned. Maybe if the was some tiny Fine print in his signature? for example (but smaller): I am not a real person, and my comments are in jest.
<<<<< see my avatar don't like it, ignore is that like the fine print we need for hairdryers in the bathtub... or coffee being too hot???? ok, I just read the wiki on this, now I'm all caught up :lol:
