For teh record, Petrucci and i were trying a few things out on Saturday with announcements and stickies and i forgot to re "Announce" teh topic when we had finished.

Its back now and was only missing for 3 days, other than that its been there since the site oppened in 2003 and was altered somewhat to make it clearer in March 2004. It has ALWAYS been at the top of general discussion and the muppet rooms as they are the most frequented areas and they have ALWAYS been very imaginatively titled:

**TO BE READ BY ALL USERS BEFORE POSTING ON PASSIONFORD**

So if you didnt.. well..

Why would anyone attack you?

1) Why would you want one? Tell me a GOOD reason to have 2 usernames that doesnt involve you remaining annonymous for ill purpose?

2) It wastes more database space and makes the place that bit harder to run and manage. Imagine if all 14000 members had 3 each Instead of 14000 profiles and e-mail addresses wed have 42000

Every society needs rules, be they on housing estates or computer hard disks... without some rules there would be anarchy. This place runs under rules written by my own fair hands, so yes, sadly, i do know them all Mr Fenner

I would like to post from home with my real name but from work with my net name.

Posting from work with my real name would caue trouble with my bosses if they knew how much time I spent here (or other sites) if any of them were watching

They dont know what car I have so the sig wouldn't give it away.

Part of my work involves being on the internet.

Having 2 windows open isn't against any of my work rules, but having 2 usernames is against yours, so I can't do it.

At least it was a good honest genuine reason

No worries

Not really wanting to get involved but......

The cause of all of this seems to be to do with glass eye?

My question is.... as he/she has already admitted to having an already active username from around the big crash of pf, and is now using the infamous Glass eye profile, should he/she not be banned as well????????????

I had to use a second one so I could PM Pet and get my original ones password reset.

Deffo not for mischief!

If it's still there, can a mod remove MOOSE 130 AGAIN please.

wrong,,mr penguin watch out for batman

my old username that was lost before the big crash over a year ago is still available for anyone to use now for the record,, i do have a second user name and the moderators do know this and that was
glass eye again
i used this as i was banned unjustly a few weeks ago and could not post so i used this new name to complain and was then allowed to use the original glass eye name once more.
so to recap,, i am just me myself and (glass)eye
