We should have a forum event
August 28, 2022 at 9:01 pm
We each create an alt troll, post whenever we can, and under our real accounts we have to figure out who the trolls are, accurately link the troll account to the real username.

I see you've started already.

This might just possibly be the worst idea in the history of ideas.

Isn't that sort of thing against the forum rules?

Forum rules, what are those?

It sounds a bit like "mafia", but without wholesale quantities of stinky socks.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Let's have an in-person forum meeting in which we find a person to be a proxy for us for the event where they imitate us personally, so it's really a meeting of proxies.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

This sounds expensive.

It also sounds like a plot for a Latvian science fiction movie.
