Why would you let him post when you know he's the guy who you just told he wasn't allowed to post for two months?
Because without positive ID, we don't know until he posts? Because, as corny as it sounds, we're supposed to be better than he is?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
How would that not happen?
I always think those are the peeps that code, stompy feet, keep up with Natter, and everyone else always knows from way back.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

John, do you mind if I riff on this for my tagline?

The username picked would cause confusion, whether or not it's the same guy. The email sent to him didn't assume anything.

The price of freedom is being nice to dickheads until we've got enough real evidence to nail their asses to the wall. With rusty nails.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's moot. All the e-mails are bouncing. And I do think that we have precisely every right to avoid confusing IDs. Anyone registering as connie niel should also be asked to pick something else to avoid what is certain to happen when they post.
And that's all we did.

Just on a purely administrative note, we don't allow people to sign un with the name "FUCKERS", do we?

Didn't Thomas Paine say that?
