Title: Are sock puppets allowed on Ozpolitics? Post by bobbythebat1 on Aug 8th, 2012 at 11:31pm
I have noticed that longweekend58 is posting under
a new name of gold_medal. He has failed to admit that he is using this new sock puppet. He seems to have a gold medal in fallacious arguments as can be seen from the FORD R.I.P. thread where he has posted with both names & is constantly using both the straw man fallacy & the argumentum ad hominem fallacy. http://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1342560772/480#480 Are people allowed to do this on Ozpolitics? I thought that freediver checks people's ISPs to see that new members are not doing this? There are also many other people who have multiple IDs. |

yes pretending to be someone else that supports his or her own arguments is a pretty desperate tactic and should be stamped out in the name of fair debate :(

Hi Nail,
yes - it it also means they can vote twice in a poll. How can that be fair? |

bobby and nails.. nails and bobby always agreeing with each other... now that smacks of socks..
were ever one pops up there goes the other.. and you worry about others... I thought a sock was when someone used more than one ID at the same time.. if they change their ID whats it got to do with anyone else????????????????????????????????. I changed mine a long time ago I got locked out of the system and the only way back was to get the powers to be to fix it for me.. its nothing to be ashamed of.. I would be surprised if longy changed his name as he couldnt careless what you lot think or dont think about him. you are making accusations...isnt that also against FD rules. |

Title: Re: Are sock puppets allowed on Ozpolitics? Post by Spot of Borg on Aug 9th, 2012 at 8:23am
longy didnt change his name. His name is still right there in the memberlist.

You are not allowed to use multiple accounts to get around bans. Other than that, I don't really care. It is a pretty low thing to do, but I am not going sock hunting.
You shouldn't care either. I get accused of having socks too - Avram and several others have been accused of being my sock. It all starts to get a bit childish if you care that much. |

Title: Re: Are sock puppets allowed on Ozpolitics? Post by Deathridesahorse on Aug 9th, 2012 at 3:02pm
It's all about behaviour: any adhominem should get a warning: 3 strikes and you're banned!
simple!! Changing names means nothing after that... once the original online personality is gone then the socks can't pile up with pollution. NIP IT IN THE BUD OR CALL IT A SHAM FORUM I SAY!! ;) ;) EFFICIENCY BREEDS SUCCESS, 3 STRIKES AND YOU'RE OUT, DO IT OR DONT' DO IT! END OF!! ::) |

I dont know what you mean... who gets banned for life???..what I have seen they come back usually better behaved thank god.. but why more than one ID I dont get that at all.. but if its their choice whats it got to do with anyone else.. I notice its always the lefties that complain about this???.. and yet they support someone like THOMO who claims its wasnt him at the brothels.. or pinching the money?????????? so who was it.... another sock? :) :) |

Come on everyone -
we have to get over it - freediver is not interested in chasing down sock puppets. I can't say I blame him - he probably has better things to do. cheers bobby |

What is it that you say we 'have to get over?'
Does that include the issue of a banned ex Member regaining access to the Forum via some other nick? :-/ |

You don't actually need multiple accounts to have mutliple IDs. For example Political Puppet has given himself a new look a few times, and is now Saul Goodman - all with the same account.

Matty is currently in New Zealand avoiding the carbon tax. His return will be thunderous.

Title: Re: Are sock puppets allowed on Ozpolitics? Post by Karnal on Aug 11th, 2012 at 5:42pm
I agree, Karnal. Matty will return when Mr Abbott sweeps in in an election victory that will make the leftards useless for a thousand years.
Hopefully, Mr Abbott will give Matty a job to reward him for his efforts. |

Pansi, Matty would never lie about something as serious as receiving sexy texts from a hunk like Mr Slipper. Also, if I remember rightly, Matty is married. I wonder what happened to the wife. Wife number 2, that is. Maybe Woof Woof knows something about that. |

yeah right... you appear at the same time, in the same places, saying the same things. And if that werent enough, here is the coup de grace. It is simply not possible or credible that two posters could have 100% agreement with each other on every topic when some of the positions are cringeworthy and infantile. That is, when they arent just plain wrong and embarrasing. You are the same person. |

Aussie is right, if a member is banned why should they have the right to post here under a different ID? I bet long weekend will hide under his rock and not answer this seeing as he is doing precisely that.
