"Anyone Who Has Seen a Post By Belldandy This Morning..."

It was not me and if you match the stats you will see that.

Unless anyone has failed to notice somebody felt the need to impersonate me this morning, in numerous threads across the forums. If they had used the name then fair enough, but they also used my tagline SDTAGW, which is proof enough that the intent was malicious.

They have made numerous statements, all of which I find to be offensive and in some cases slanderous.

What is more this person was Insane Bartender, a supposed notable.

He has even admitted it saying it was a joke.

Here is a post made by the impostor

Here is a post made by IB before the name change to verify it was him - the stats match

SR has previously banned members whom maliciously impersonated staff and users, though I doubt that this will be the case.

I do not expect Mr Snuggly to do stuff all, after all he's played a part occasionally.

The rules of the forum, that staff are so apt to refer to, state:

PLEASE NOTE: These chat forums are viewed by children, so no bad language will be tolerated. Should you post foul or offensive language, your posts will be deleted and you will be removed from the system. If you persist in swearing, you will be banned. Posts entered entirely in capitals will also not be valid, please use lower case text. Do not illegally boost your word count by quoting other users' posts without adding anything. We reserve the right to ban users from contributing to any part of the site, whether it be for swearing, copying, bullying, spamming or advertising other websites, or any other action we feel inappropriate. Linking directly to illegal downloads ie. music/films will not be tolerated and users may be banned if they persist in doing so.

What he has done is inappropriate and repeatedly, even after being asked to stop.

They are most certainly foul in some cases, all offensive to me.

They contains numerous all CAPS messages.

It most certainly is bullying.

Most certainly spamming.

Of course he's a notable, you'll do stuff all, but I feel other forums users should see what happens when certain people decide they don't like you and your opinions, and how the staff - at least Snuggly - turn a blindeye to it.

Should no action be taken all forum users should not that they can now;

1) Relentlessly name call and abuse anyone they wish, constantly, including staff so long as no swear words are used.
2) You can impersonate anyone, including staff, as long as you find a way to do it.

Have fun, and this won't be the last of this...

I always miss the fun stuff. It's is almost as bad as the time I missed the 'I will lend you kurds and blacks' fighting thread.

It is neither slander not libel.
If our esteemed whiny "victim" had as much intelligence as he does self-righteous fury and tears, he would not be suggesting that

Please don't make this any more difficult. Bell was warned as well, if he continues to act up then similar action will be taken. IB was spoken to before he was banned and conceded politely.

*shrugs*

Might as well do something to get my ass banned then.

*goes off for a smoke and a think*

Trying to please everyone on these forums is impossible, especially when you have personal opinions about certain users. I'm just trying to do the right thing and remain unbiased. Quite frankly, I'm wishing I wasn't in charge of these forums any more, more hassle than they're worth sometimes.

Still, on with the day.

Good point; Bell is probably the only person who would want to see IB banned for today's round of merriment. Yet a fair few people would want a similar punishment for Bell's screaming. It's sets an unpleasnt precedent; complain about someone long and hard enough, and they'll be banned.

Wow, two IBs have been banned, one has joined, another still survives... good.

For how long is he banned? It just seems odd that he's been punished for no other reason than someone got oversensitive and tetchy is all. Especially as he actually had the good grace to explain himself.

Ah well, I understand that y'all have to make tough decisions to keep the peace. Can I call you Kofi from now?!

Wow, Snuggly laid down the law! I'm not surprised though, he got passed his Bar exam last weekend - here's the proof:

IB made a joke using a vacant username.
Bell scweams and scweams and IB gets banned.
Bell quotes, at length, posts without adding anything, and spammed all forums today and he's been "warned"?

That's retarded mate.
