Yeah, so...uh...the lesson here is, "Never upgrade your AOL software." I did. I was unable to access web pages for a week. Eventually, I had to format my C:/ drive & rebuild it. Eight times. I think I've got it now.

What'd I miss? Was Flower Man actually MIB in disguise? How'd that happen? And how'd it get discovered?

Welcome back, Shik.

Mark posted the final question for Sector Beta about a week ago. You might want to give that a look-see. [Smile]

Well, MIB, in his brilliance, used his StarCraft log-in name as his e-mail, not to mentioned typed/talked the same, so me and Omega pointed that out to Charles, who decided to "ignore" MIB's return provided he didn't do any of his old stuff.

Then, guess what ... ? [Smile]

Flower Man was indeed MIB. It was discovered, at least for me, by the profile similarities and the typical MIB little-boy-on-crack posting style. I'm sure that there were other signs, as well.

Other than that, nothing else has happened except for Michael_T promising us pictures of him dressed as Uhura. Then he welched on his offer.

There were a couple posts he made here in the Officer's Lounge which were very reminiscent of the his "Don't Blame Me It Was Judge Dread" phase. I think these both were within the last three or four weeks.

Flower Man may have been a bit more tolerable, but Alexander was still evading a ban that he got himself into. That's not exactly a good way to ingratiate one's self here.

Who me? What did I do? I'm not banned!? Am I?

Hang on, so I didn't star in Episode 1 and light-up the screen with my "plank of wood" approach?

'Yeah, so...uh...the lesson here is, "Never upgrade your AOL software."'

At the risk of sounding snide, the lesson here is "never use AOL software unless you are a complete spaz."

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

How big of a spaz does it make me, considering that I used AOL solely for its wonderful webhosting features for the better part of five years?

Does spaz mean the same thing in Europe as it does here?

Only if using AOL means the same thing in the Americas as it does in Europe.

Well, I don't think it does. After all, using AOL in America means you're a spaz. Using AOL in Europe means one more step in the direction of American world domination.
