As expected mover, shaker, and all around nice guy Peter Johnson has registered here under his usual moniker, jonsopet.  Now we're almost certain that he's also registered another account going by the name rubystein.  This is one of his usual methods of making forum administrators love him so much.  If we do let him in be warned that he will cause arguments, will be obnoxious, and will say a lot of stupid things.  If we don't let him in he'll just keep registering accounts with funny names and invent elaborate back stories to try to pretend he's someone else.  Either way he's a funny guy and keeps us entertained.

As the moderator team it's up to us to decide whether to activate his account or not.  So let's vote.

The trouble is he cannot keep out of trouble.   I had to remove posts between him and another member on ACBO before it blew into a full verbal argument.  I did not even give it a chance.

Maybe we could give him a very strong warning but I do not think it would matter much.

There's always the option of activating him and have his posts approved by us before they are live.

Whatever is involved in him being here though is going to end up as more work for us...........

But if he's already here reading and posting as rubystein what motivations has he for registering as his own name......

That's deceptive from the get go.

I haven't voted yet.

I suspect that the other account is for one of his other personalities.  Uh, I mean to use when the jonsopet account gets banned because he is an ass.

OK let's put it this way (just thinking out loud here).

What has he actually contributed to on other forums with regard to content or images????? I can only think of one and that's number of posts.

He makes stupid/outlandish statements and refuses to substantiate anything he says, supposedly sourced from some so called 'expert' who he simply can't name or attribute the info to, very rarely says anything constructive, avoids answering questions, never posts any pictures, in other words he is a negative influence, and so I voted accordingly.

What we need to remember is just who we are dealing with, he is a serial pest of the worst kind, I can only think of one other forum person with a similar reputation.

Look at the time he's made us waste so far just deciding on what to do with him.  If I could, I'd dump a giant truckload of horse s**t on him. Finito!

Yeah! Right! I think he needs a :mafia: visit. :icon_evil:

He will no doubt eventually do something that gets him banned. He's signed up on CCF over a dozen times, each time acting in exactly the same way and been banned each time; after a couple dozen posts it's not hard to figure out who his alt-IDs are, even if you don't notice a matching IP.

The question is, do we let him in anyway? Judging from observing his past behaviour I am reasonably certain he is incapable of changing his attitudes, not without divine intervention anyway.

I'd vote for pre-emptive nuclear strike. Take out him and his army of clones.

Are any of the moderator team here unfortunate enough to be on his list of people he knows the e-mail address of? I'm not, but rggoodie is. Each time he gets banned from CCF he gives RG a good blasting.

I doubt that would make any difference to him. He obviously thinks he's got some sort of 'right' to even be brazen enough to apply using his original ID.

Shovel him up and ship him out.   :icon_arrow: :icon_arrow: :icon_arrow:  :icon_arrow: :icon_arrow: :icon_arrow: :icon_arrow: :icon_arrow:

OK, that's 3 Nay votes.  He's banned.  We'll watch the other ID for action until we're certain it's him and ban that one too.  Thread closed.

Thread reopened. FYI Mods.

It's been brought to our attention that Peter Johnson may be posting under the alias "runway". We may have to watch this member carefully.

Watching the patterns of posting and the comments made I tend to think it is probably him.

Looks like PJ has reverted to his 'old' form by the looks of his last 2 posts, getting a bit aggressive.

He's been an ass the whole time he's been here.  I tend to delete most of his better material before most people get to see it.

Maybe he should be given a final warning then if he keeps it up remove him from members list and block his IP address.
