quote: ORIGINAL: tazzygirl Which is why blushes posted "real" identity. Correct. We don't all have to "out" ourselves here. But it's nice to know that we're not arguing with 12 people who are really only one. (if not in their own mind)

But which is "real"? That used most often? This I would say would be my inclination, but is not TheRaptorJesus a sockpuppet of another, I have it in mind that I have seen this said. Yet he is a persona independent, and is equally "real" as is any other, is he not? Oft have I seen the words "I have been here for ?? years beneath other names". Is the persona discarded less "real" than that but newly assumed? We all have the option to create ourself anew through such a medium of anonymity as is offered by this forum, and thus however might we know who is the "real" and who the "fake"? However might we know who is the typist for each username? These are the issues that concern me when such a topic arises, also that such accusations cannot be shown to be real, and do but foster distrust and animosity. These are emotions of ill health to be avoided are they not? Be at peace Aneka

Ok, here is the difference. I am going on vacation to somewhere near Greedy lives. We are going to see each other. We talk to each other on the phone. Now, if I were...say...someone pretending to be someone from another country, who would presumably have an accent, that wouldn't go fade away at times, it would be difficult to maintain my persona. (if I were not that person) But...since I have friends here on this board, a couple who even work with me (and speak with me often)...welll..then it becomes more difficult for me to maintain my pretend self. So...some people are real.... and some are pretend.... some can prove who they are and some can't. Then again there's always cam. (but it'll cost ya) ; )

barelynangel -> RE: Dirty Socks and Those Who Wear Them (12/8/2011 9:44:00 PM)
And then there are people like me -- i rarely talk to people off the boards, i have allowed very few people on these boards become close enough to me to remotely go from online to phone. I don't cam with anyone. I have been here for years and always under the same nick. Am i real -- i would suspect no -- not to people i haven't allowed to exist in my life outside of these boards. Am i a participant in an anonymous way in discussions on the board -- yep, that's why i am here. I also have never seen the boards as a place to be social or to make friends etc. I have made friends over the years but that was never the reason i came here - i love discussion and its a mindless way to past time for me. The thing what most people who do the double duty thing don't get is it's not easy to change your style when you have an automatic style. So while you may be able to do it occassionally or get away with it for a while, eventually the facade starts to meld with your automatic natural style and people become suspect. The problem is the people who utilize socks in a mysterious way and in a secretive way, think they are smarter than everyone else so they think they will get away with it and play everyone for fools. they don't get that eventually, they are recognized -- maybe people online can't say with absolute proof, but the recognition and familiarity shows through. angel

Ok. Ok. I admit it. I am the one who typed the stuff for the cats who own Greedy. But I swear, they told me what to say. Well, not really told,...kind of...demanded...so... sigh

I have never seen Raptor deny that name is a sock puppet. There are a few more than readily admit to that.

Is the persona discarded less "real" than that but newly assumed? Hiding behind false names to make attacks is what we are speaking of. Many have new names, many have also posted on the profiles or their tag lines what names they were before. That I respect. What I do not respect is when people dust off an old name to slam others, then run and hide like children giggling behind their mommies skirts. quote: We all have the option to create ourself anew through such a medium of anonymity as is offered by this forum, and thus however might we know who is the "real" and who the "fake"?

I have the integrity not too. quote: These are the issues that concern me when such a topic arises, also that such accusations cannot be shown to be real, and do but foster distrust and animosity.

We have four cats, three dogs and five fish. I never ever have to talk to my own self any more. (unless I want to...) But my disturbing hobby has more to do with talking to men on the phone and "making" them do things that they'd "never" do on their own...[:-][8\|][;)][:D][:D][:D]

quote: ORIGINAL: LaTigresse Exactly and you and MP are the perfect example of two people using the same computer where neither is a puppet. As for the IP address thing........I use 4 different computers on a regular basis. They could ban the IP of one but then I could just get on another. Also, I know for sure that one of them does change IP addresses regularly. The other three I don't know because they do not need to allow other computers access. We actually do have two. It's darn near a requirement for him to have one should he get sent anywhere away from home. Even going away for a week of training somewhere, he's got to have computer access. He knows far more about the IP address business than I do. Could it be evaded? I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard with somebody who knows what they are doing. Just seems a shame that folks think everybody else is an idiot when they are doing it.

I vote OTHER. My girl everhope and my ex christycougar both use my network to log into collarme. IP throttling/banning would mean only one of use could use my network.

quote: Hiding behind false names to make attacks is what we are speaking of. This I agree is not a thing I find appropriate, yet it is not a thing I find a worry, a name that has appeared with its creation to attack is most plain and thus of no consequence. I also find the speculation on such in public to not be appropriate. As has been said elsewhere, one has no knowledge upon which to base such a claim, only suspicion and rumour. It is but gossip. Be at peace Aneka

socks dont bother me (but then no one has any reason to use a sock with me).. and i dont use a sock myself.. [;)] I find most socks funny and the not so funny ones usually tend to say what many people already think, imo.. but if someone is a dumb shit then a sock speaking its mind about it isnt gonna change the dumb shit anyway.. it can be entertaining tho.. getting rid of socks isnt gonna change the drama level here, imo.. only way to do that is people stopping with their childish personal attacks and insults, either voluntarily or by enforcement

quote: ORIGINAL: Toppingfrmbottom I read on fetlife where it's not possible to permanently ban Ip's because they are ever changing. Thats not the case with Bvroadband in the UK. The majority of users have a dedicated IP. that said, some Broadband privders have a generic IP. Dial up is different as you get a random IP each time you log on.

OttersSwim -> RE: Dirty Socks and Those Who Wear Them (12/9/2011 6:43:29 AM)
I have to say that this whole sock issue has sort of made me feel sad about these boards. I really wanted to believe that there were 4 hot lesbians in Canada....and now I don't know if they really exist, or are just the figment of some 57 year old dude living in a basement in Cleveland. That is part humor, and part very real sadness at how silly all this has gotten. For me, this now deeply colors with suspicion the previous threads in which we have had good discussion - like the Transgender thread. Was any of that poll stuff even close to being real? What about all the other threads that they participated on? How can anything any of them have ever said be trusted or believed? Same for Arpig...NS...AneNoz...and God knows who else... And it now leaves me wondering why I am even wasting my time here. [8\|]

When Cheri first questioned her faith, when her friend was brutally murdered (I googled and read news reports of it so i know that was true).. and the sadness, grieving, questions about her faith, those all seemed very real to me.. seriously, how could she be a sock puppet? If she is not then none of the others are socks either.. I think this whole suspecting everyone is a sock puppet thing is out of control!.. [8\|]

Hillwilliam -> RE: Dirty Socks and Those Who Wear Them (12/9/2011 7:12:49 AM)
Tossing a thought into the sock puppet argument. I think a lot of the accusations of sock puppetry come from a few people thinking. "There can't be this many people that disagree with My Divine Righteous Thoughts." Since there can't be that many people that disagree with my obvious correctness, it MUST be one person who is creating multiple personalities in a pathetic attempt to deny my absolute superiority." If that pissed you off, then I'm probably talking about you.

tazzygirl -> RE: Dirty Socks and Those Who Wear Them (12/9/2011 12:01:48 PM)
Nope, not pissed at you, Hill. I only question one. Dont know if its a puppet or not. Stories dont jive. Bleh.... its now on hide. Best way to deal with that.
