Peanut Gallery Commentary on the Staff Log of Bannings and such like.

There's a bug in the system wherein we sometimes see CloudFlare IP addresses, which are not the true IP of the person. Some posts still come through with their true IP, and we have to just happen to check the IP for that post, and that's what eventually happened.

In this case it involved a bit of detective work in admin CP. They would have likely been caught eventually regardless. Sooner or later someone will catch on by posting style, etc and then it's just a matter of time.

Plus, they apparently had a meeting this morning and said, "Hey! Beccs isn't here. Let's ban him while she's away!! She's been wanting to do it for the past week. Heh. Heh!"

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"

I guess it's not a sin to intentionally deceive people and lie if you're just doing it to us heathens.

Some of em are just crazy, I think.

Not sure how you were left out of the loop Cathoo. Here's my copy:

MEMO Wrote:Meeting Minutes:

Item #1) Any further attempts to overthrow Tiberius will be met with fierce opposition and possibly beheading. (Looking at you Iroscato)

Item #2) Beccs is currently away, make sure all bannings happen before she gets back. The mess she leaves is undesirable.

Item #3) Junior Junior Junior mod vorlon13 has once again requested to perform the Staff Physicals this year. There will be an opt out form passed around. Sign and return by Friday.

Hey Vorls, is it true that when you insisted on performing full cavity searches last year, SC asked for seconds in case you missed something the first time? Dunno
No God, No fear.

I like being thorough.
