How desperate would someone have to be to make a user just to agree with them? I don't see it happening.
I agree with this.

Orkeo, you must be a pretty smart guy, because all your posts are insightful and well-written.

Getting two people on the internets to agree is easy.

Getting all of them to agree on the same thing ?

You'd have better luck herding cats.

I have no opinion on WC. I've never seen any of them, let alone played against any of them. I see elements of blow-hard-ery on here, but tbh, ALL groups will have those types.

As for sock puppets. I like sooty.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).

Getting all the regular people on the internet ain't so hard. Getting gamers (IRL or on this interweb thingy) to agree on anything is like herding cats.

Signed on the the WC boards and haven't been flamed or bullied, but I haven't posted anything yet. Actually, they've been kinda quiet the past few days as I can tell. Is there a secret board?

What are you talking about.

It's not that hard.

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

*gasp*

People can't possibly have the same opinion, can they?

Accusing people of making alternate accounts to support their own claims is about as immature as doing it yourself.

I'm just incredulous that this thread hasn't been locked yet.

Any thread involving sock puppets must also include some reference somewhere about pie. Make it so.

Ummm, so three accounts are questionable out of the thousands of accounts, thus requiring a thread about us in general should be more mature acting?

How about just hit an alert to the mods and let them handle it.

I guess I'm peeved at myself for actually reading what turned into a useless thread.

No earth shattering, thought provoking quote. I'm just someone who was introduced to 40K in the late 80's and it's become a lifelong hobby.

You'll have to steal mine from the washing machine. I'm sure it sends them to some netherworld.

Then again, that could be how you steals them.

Okay, this thread has gotten pretty far off-topic (I'm not sure it was ever even on-topic), so it is being closed.

If you are ever "concerned" that someone is creating multiple accounts purposely to stir up trouble, contact a moderator or administrator.

We can check user's IP addresses and it is pretty easy to identify when someone has created multiple accounts.
