your back
Hustler came back last weekend as Luis Garcia 2, managed five posts before I banned him personally myself without asking the other mods. He's another who has had all the chances he's going to get. Same with Meelan, have some patience though.
If Meelan has other ID's, he'll easily be spotted. Just get on with the normal business of the forum and leave the witch hunt to the mods. We're on the case.
Sorry we do such ajob in your eyes though.

wouldn't surprise me. Surly the mods can just ban IP's....why do we have to suffer morons coming back under different ID's, only to continue their mindless abuse?
No. Different IP addresses
Because most Internet Service Providers (ISP) use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to assign IP addresses, therefore the IP Address changes each time the computer is connected to the ISP. It would be totally useless to block a single IP address and hope that you have solved the problem. The banning of the complete subnet (batch of IP addresses) could potentially block legitimate users.
In addition, the use of a proxy server would give the person even more control over hiding their identity.

good point. How about we have a policy of reporting consistant morons to their ISP? I think the 'threat' of doing this would be enough to scare of 90% of the morons because it would mean their parents/work place would find out their computer has been reported for malicious abuse. Good idea or not?

First of all, what meelan has done is absolutely unacceptable. I do believe that he might just be a young kid in his early 10s.
However, I really object to his PM being pasted all over the forum. Why? That's because PMs are meant to be private. Though educating the masses in here would be good, what woof has done is to unknowingly give Meelan the cheap thrill that he is seeking. For cases like this, the PM should be forwarded straight to the mods for them to take care of the matter, which they are more than capable of.
In short, by giving meelan the publicity he seeks, it is only encouraging other posters to seek their 5 mins of fame this way.
Nevertheless, I absolutely condemn Meelan's choice of words in his PM to CGGY, and I want to let CGGY know that me, together with most of the forum members in here give him the fullest support in this matter. Don't be afraid, cos nothing's gonna happen to you.
Totally disagree with your perspective . Why on earth should abuse of this nature be swept under the carpet ? . In no way was the sender "seeking a cheap thrill " via publicity" as you put it ,if that was indeed the case he would have posted his garbage in the open forum , perhaps he realised what our reaction would be if we saw such filth and thats why he chose to pm it.
If the original pm had been reported to the mods and the sender had been subsequently banned some people in here (you possibly may have been one of them ) would be asking "What happenend to Meelan 5 ,? he doesn't post in here anymore"
I think it's important that scum are exposed and that members in this forum are aware of what goes on in here .
Perhaps you think that rapists and peadophiles should also have their deeds kept secret ,after all the neighbours might have thought "he was a bit quirky ,but harmless "

Thing is, you said such deeds warrant exposure. To some extent I concur with you.
Though it is indeed highly unlikely that meelan would fullfil his threats, but nothing is for certain in this world, especially when we deal with possible psychopaths. While the risk is low, why increase it by challenging him?
It sounds very defeatist and pacifist, I know. . You should have realised that by making it public, you have invited the public to condemn meelan, and increase his anger towards CGGY, and in the process increasing the risks of harm befalling CGGY.
The reason why his PM has been conveniently posted in public is that we all conveniently assume that he's making empty threats. But how do we know for sure? The risk might be low but it makes not sense increasing it, don't you agree?
