Btw, Markso, is there any way to make smilies work in sigs?

[MichaeltheGreat]

W4c's a DL, so he won't be needing the signature feature anyhow.

[SuperSneak]

He might need it next time, you know.

Nice detective work, Mikelock.


Or do you prefer Mikeford?

Or Columbmike?

I see you as sort of a Sherlock Mike, really...knowing 287 different types of pipe ash and all that....

I wonder how they find out who is a DL?

[Immortal Wombat]

The fact that an "ozzie" was trying to get a quote about virginians into his signiture can't have helped...

[Urban Ranger]

He's a chieftain, though...

[Immortal Wombat]

Spellings, political stance and general attitude are all good give aways for someone like Steve5304 but I think IPs are logged, so unless you swap ISP every time...

Oh yeah, and Saddam is one of only three people to spell "by", "bye". The other two are Steve5304 and his DL Warrior4christ
Not that I'm insinuating anything at all...

[Ceci n'est pas Snapcase]

I thought Steve and Saddam were a bit too similar... I was just about to ask how Saddam knew the fact that I was a European...

And I always switch ISPs every time. Or at least log off and log on to recieve a new IP adress, though usually the former.

[MichaeltheGreat]

I have a neat little tool under development which will make it much harder to get away with. The benign ones that aren't too flagrant aren't a problem, but the flaming/trolling ones, and those which try to get past a serious ban are worth hunting down.

Sneak a benign post in here or there in the on-topic forums, and it's easy to build a "history" that won't be immediately noticed.

Other than screening new accounts (and some of those are toasted before they ever post, if they come from repeat customers), I personally don't pay attention to registration date and post count as a hunting criteria.
