I kind of feel sorry for duct tape. Always getting implicated in crimes.....if I ever get banned, I'm using "duct tape" as my new nic!

[Dolphy]

She was asked to use just one account...so she is still among us?

[Jrabbit]

Like a ghost?

I'm no good at this. Unless somebody tells me, I never know if someone is a retread.

[Krodg]

That would certainly be interesting.....like Sybil....

Yeah. Like...if you don't like this theory, I'll give you another one. BTW, did you read the Admin's post to countryconservative?

[Jrabbit]

Yes.....I'm befuddled. How many user names are allowed? I've been this rabbit forever!

[Krodg]

Unless somebody tells me, I never know if someone is a retread.

Unless someone signs in with the screen name 'duct tape' and then we will all know it is you!!!

[Dolphy]

I never know either.

[justche]

not one in the same. Someone else has pointed out that bridgette and country conservative are the same. it looks like bridgette's account is still open.

I have no idea about gingersnap.

[cherry]

isn't countryconservative really Bridgette?....if so, she is a near legend here for her extensive and valuable work on many threads,and I say that knowing that her and I have butted heads a few times...

hope everyone is happy now that two people are banned.....geesh....

[Krodg]

She was asked to use just one account...so she is still among us?>

She's banned and I had nothing to do with it.

[stlnative]

HERE IS MY STORY...

I am so angry that I have to post this to clear my user name!

I signed up with my real first name, which has a unique spelling on September 21, 2001.

At the time I never knew what problems it would cause me later on down the road using my real first name on FR. I also made the mistake of building a FR profile page.

My real name and first FR name was "brigette"

I ran into some problems locally with someone that overheard me talking about my membership at FR. This person who overheard me is a far leftwing nuts case that lives in my small community. They have been harassing me here in my community.

I asked JimRob to change my user name but that I wanted to keep my original start date with my new name. So JimRob changed "brigette" to "stlnative" - unfortunately I had no idea that previous posts under "brigette" would roll back and would show my new username "stlnative". So the name change did me no good in trying to hide from this local left wing harasser in my comminity.

I emailed JimRob to ask him why my old posts rolled back with my new user name. He told me there was no way to avoid it and that I needed to sign up with a totally new account and that he had no way to change my start date on that new account.

So I decided to sign up with a new account and I told JimRob what that new account name was when I sent in my donation to FR. That brand new name was CountryConservative. I let a few trusted FR friends know of my new user name. I did not feel it was safe or would help my cause if I posted publicly on FR why I made the change and who I was in the past, if I did this then this leftwing nut case would also know.

Then some FR people started calling me a troll due to my new FR start date - The Rippersnapper figured out the name changes and decided to post it publicly. So Rippersnapper destoryed my cover and I know this leftwing nuts case now knows exactly who I am. Again Rippersnapper felt that they had to list all my previous user names in a post on this thread. I emailed the Admin Moderator trying to explain to them what was going on without having to go into great detail. I asked them to remove Rippersnappers post that had all my names in it. (I now wonder if Rippersnapper is the local leftwing nut that has been bothering me here in my town)

The Admin Moderator decided to ban me under my CountryConservative name. I guess they did this because they felt I had been using and posting under more than one name since I signed up with the new CountryConservative name. This is not so I have only been using my new name since I signed up with it, but it is now banned and I am back to using my stlnative name that was change from my real name.

I have emailed JimRob, Rippersnapper, and Admin Moderator.

I have 2 choices now... One is to leave FR completely so that this leftwing nut case cannot follow my posts and harass me anymore on what post. Or I can again sign up with a new name and continue to be called a troll.

Not all people who have new names are trolls. I also know I am not the first person on FR to be found and harassed by some leftwing nut. I was not trying to hide from other TRUE FR people. I was trying to hide from this leftwing nut that found me on FR and who lives in my small community.

If this leftwing nut does not leave me alone I have no choice but to go to my local police and report them. I will do this if needed. I am sorry if some of you felt you needed a full explanation on my name change or that you  thought I was trying to pull a fast one on some other TRUE freepers.

I am sorry that I had to post this on Natalee's thread - but now people think that I have several user names and that I am using them due to the Admin Moderator last post to me under CountryConservative. I am not gingersnaps or anyone else.

The Admin Moderator banned the CountryConservative user name that I have been using for the last few weeks. They might as well continue to keep it banned since they have no way of fixing the start date on it to reflect 9/21/05 - besides the cat is out of the bag and the leftwing nut knows my current and past FR names. - Thanks Rippersnapper and Admin Moderator.

hope you don't leave.....it matters very little to most true freepers how long a person has been here... but, we all know that the "troll" term is thrown around a lot,mostly by people that can't argue their point any other way.......try signing up but don't post for a while, and get by the "newbie" stage...

but don't let this crazy nutcase dictate what you can and can't do....

good luck.....

[toldyou]

Good post!

[Krodg]

Why are you screaming? If you really had a problem with someone stalking you, you would get off line and contact authorities.

[whitedog57]

1) Can someone allow Brigette/CountryConvservative back on and end this silliness? I am a professor at a major university and I know how I would be hounded if the Socialist/Communist/Maoist/Stalinist faculty and staff found that I was posting on FreeRepublic; so, let her switch and an end to this nonsense.

2) Couldn't sleep and was trying to catch up on the Natalee Holloway story. No news here, just sniping. This must mean that the duct tape and lake draining turned up nothing.

3) I still cling to the opinion that the poor girl is in Venezuela or a far-away land in the white slavery world. It would partially explain why Juran is so confident that no body will be found. Juran almost makes Scott Peterson look like a sympathetic character!

[cherry]

well, since I seem to be the only one on tonite, thought I would mention what Dan Riehl is saying over at RWV...

he states that he is not sure if its authentic but his source seems to be good, and the source is saying that about a week ago a letter came into Aruba threatening action if Natalee is not returned.....supposedly, threatened the water or food supply or something along that nature....,

FWIW ..............

[justche]

the pond draining is still happening (or last I saw an update) The hair on the duct tape-not Natalee's.

Somehow I too hope she's alive as well.

[stlnative]

I am online (at least for now)... read my red letter post again.

[beyond the sea]

There is a particular kind of woman who loves to pronounce, with great authority, that anothere woman is doing something that makes her a slut. Then they pretend that is not what they said because such behavior to perfectly commonplace. But what they do is defame other women. I have never understood what kind of bi@@@ would do that.

"a particular kind of woman" --- perhaps the defaming woman never had a day's fun in her life ....... or just is one who is envious of the other.

[stlnative]

TexKat and All:
I am sooo very sorry - please forgive me! - That goes for everyone else also, please forgive me for posting this on Natalee's thread.

Krodg:
I am not shouting in my red letter post - everything is not in caps. I never said the person was stalking me here in my community but if it turns into that I will go to the police of course.

I do know that this person is a left wing nut and that they looked me up on FR and are following my posts here on FR. When I run into them the conversation "always" turns into how they think FR and the people of FR is full of a bunch of wackos. Sometimes it turns into an argument when I try to uphold my beliefs. The name change was what I thought would be the easy way for this person not to find my posts on FR anymore, but some "Newbie" freeper thought it was their job to point this out to others on FR (thus letting the person who lives near me "in" on my name change).

It is all pretty stupid no doubt - I thought I had found a quick and simple solution, but SOME people on FR are so hot on the trigger to call someone a troll it is just sickening, then when you try to say you are not a troll then they think you change your name because of other freepers, which in my case was not the situation at all. But that did not stop people from making an issue out of it.

I was not juggling 2 names and I was not posting under both of them like the Admin Moderator thought I was. I was trying to give the old name a rest and I had planned to go back to it eventually after it had a rest, once I knew it was rested enough I had planned to ask JimRob to change it so that after the rest it would not roll back. But now I am back to the old name again with my original start date and this is the name I will use from now on.

I am not sure how far the roll back goes back, maybe the last time JimRob had backed up the system but it might be as long as 6 months.

I am tired and I got upset when Rippersnapper decided again tonight to post my past and current user names once again to make a point that had nothing to do with me or any conversation I was part of today on this thread. I asked the Mod to remove the post and tried to explain to them the situation with a light version of it, instead the Mod banned me thinking I was currently posting under 2 names and playing games with other freepers which I have not been doing. Anyone can go back and see when I posted last under "brigette" which is now "stlnative" and they can see I have not used stlnative at all except for tonight as the countryconservative name is now banned.

That is the honest to god truth...
I don't know why Rippersnapper was doing what they did and I guess they are clueless as to why some people may change their user name. I know I am not the first one that has had problems with non-FR person following them around on FR (it is a public forum) and then bugging them when they are around this person in public.

Goodnight!
