Ok, someone is posting as Babelina.
Using my avatar, almost my name, and has my url:s at the bottom, and even the mooning smilie. This is not me.
This is obviously some sick person who have nothing better to do than make other peoples lives sour.
So look closely at the name.
Babelina is false.

BEBELINA is real.

Who are you? Are you insane?


:mad:

I can no longer be here, if all these false persons, with fake identities are allowed to roam freely. :(

I would guess that Babelina is one of the Religious category enthusiasts that don't like your Female Messiah Titleing...

Personally, I think it suits you and they are just jelious that they couldn't think of something so apt.

If you find them causing people concern other than yourself, just get Porfiry to check their logged IP.

I have reported almost every post by this user.
Maybe the removal of this sick individual, probably former Howardstern, Pro. Arturo etc.., will go faster if you also reported them.

Anyway, thanks for your support Stryder. :)

Impersonation shouldn't be allowed nor tolerated.
Using another persons avatar should be grounds enough for ejecting from the forums, let alone someonelses name and url's.
What can we do to help?

I think tht you have reported this to admin allready.
He could give us BABELINAs password and we could delete any of her messages. and yes, admin should delete BABELINA from sciforums of course.
Full support from me.



Stryderunknown
if he/she is using dial-up the best we could do[legally :) ] is to get
her/his ISP. if permenant home connection , yes it would be good.
Lets wait for Porfiry to reply

Thanks everybody.
All I can do is report the posts, and that I have done.
I just hope this person hasn´t also sent pm:s to anybody pretending to be me too.
Why does anybody waste energy on doing something stupid like this? What can I possibly have done to this person?
I have gotten some weird emails that I haven´t replied to, so maybe it´s one of those person, probably the same person all along.
Well, now you know anyway...so you don´t think that it´s me who have totally lost my mind.

Try not to let it get you down, Bebelina. We all know which one is really you. I'm just ignoring the other one because it's childish and immature. That's not what these forums are about and it's bringing down standards. I hope Porfiry can do something.

Cheers,
Teri

Ok, someone is posting as Babelina.


Bebelina, are you real or are you memerex...? How do we know that when some dramatic change in lighting occurs, that your alter ego is not summoned forth to drag its guilt and shame onto the flickering computer screen that begs for words to be hung on slippery thoughts<types faster and faster..>So many shades Bebelina<laughter echoes from the basement>..Ambient seperation...you watch as her hands type<faster and faster>..

A rip off like this is really bad.

Perhaps finally this is the evidence of parallel universes and parallel existence some have been waitng to find?

This imposter most certainly has a beard.
And has several identities here.
Howardstern, Pro. Arturo...and who know who else? You?
A sad lonely person who feel rejected by women.
And sees this as revenge.
And I think it´s very low of you to throw my theories about parallell universes in my face, in a situation like this.
:(

RDE

You honestly don't look good in a pink Skirt.

Babelina???

I know that you are obviously upset for some reason about Bebelina's presence on the boards but I think that is no way to go about it. Now I enjoy fun and games as well as the next person but I think this is takeing it a little to far. The attitude within the posts is basically a personal attack and smear.

Bebelina,
I know this is trying but hang in there. I think that everyone is aware of what is happening and can you see from the responces that you are supported. No need to leave. This will be straighten out in due time. It now resides in Porfiry's hands.

Thanks again for the support everyone.
I will stay. Leaving would mean that "Babe"..wins, and that I will not have.

:)

That's some emotion detector you have there, but Orange????

What? :confused:

It´s sickening with all the ppl who use the anonymity of the web as a screen to hide their own loneliness. Seem to be totally unaware that they are dealing with real ppl.

Trolls, gremlins.. they don´t deserve such fantastical names, call them e-stalkers. Being anonymous gives freedom to act from the heart when one lacks the courage to do so in everyday life. Acting as a ass when hiding behind the keyboard just shows the magnitude of idiocy and lack of character behind the words.

Shape up. Be real, you fool! :(

I completely agree with muliboy.
Something needs to be done.
Where's porfiry?

The imposter Babelina has been terminated. The account has been shut down and their posts removed.

Apologies to the real Bebelina for any trouble caused.

As for the identity of the imposter, I have suspicions but no firm evidence. The IP of the imposter did not match any other user, but then again the IP was from a large internet provider (AOL).


As for the more general concern of single persons masquerading under multiple accounts, here is the current situation. At the moment there is nothing preventing this. The board used to have an 'email verification' step wherein users would have to prove their email is valid (and, of course, only one account per email address would be accepted). Now, I disabled this a while back after realizing that a good percentage (~20%) of new registrants were never verifying their email (probably out of laziness). I determined it was healthier for the site to take the risk that people may forge their emails than it was to lose the 'lazy or confused internet surfer' demographic (a large one). I figured it was easier to pick out the bad seeds one by one when needed.

I don't think there's any need to modify this policy after today.

To those (few) who are using multiple accounts, realize that your internet address is logged with every post. Thus, I know who you are. You are not anonymous. While I have no particular problem with the use of multiple personalities (largely because it is not very common), impersonating another member is simply not allowed. And if I have sufficient evidence, I will terminate all your accounts.

You can delete the account Backslash776..... I did that.... hehehe... We think he is an alien so 776 would be technically higher in rank. So i just fooled around... funny =D

OK, it's alright to imp \777 since he's an imp to begin with. :)

rde,

If she's got a beard, there's your proof.

:D :D :D

;)

So, you're approaching ancient, too? Or just doppler-shifted in a slightly retarded, chronological sense? :p

I was begging to hesitate before I logged in because of childish mimicks. I'm glad you're keeping an eye on things. Bebelina is a good natured person who doesn't need personal attacks. Even if they don't offend her, I don't want to be associated with a forum that does such things.

Thanks again.
Cheers
Teri

Thank you very much Porfiry!

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA....

KOOL...:cool:

bye!

If there was such a thing as a anti-bebelina, a bizarro version, she (or he as it´s the opposite) would be so evil, she/he would have killed us all already :D

The anti-female messiah...
be afraid, be very afraid...

anhilation of both you mean?;) Bebelina and Babelina??


bye!

Now that the imposter has been deleted it must look very funny with all those angry replies. New members must think that we are ALL...insane.

:D

....or inane

I pity these guys with multiple accounts. They must be real lonely people.

BTW, I remember when I first came to sciforums in August it was much busier. Scince then I have seen a steady decline. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me?

You've said this before, Elbaz, and you're totally off your rocker. The average post volume during August was ~100 posts per day. November was around ~150, and thus far in December the lowest was ~200 with the average being being around ~250.

There are always more posts to read the first time you come.
As you have not read any!

Perhaps I shouldn't butt in, but I have a hard time believing that the professor would be the culprit of such a juvenille act. Granted he has a snobbish and superior attitude which is difficult to overlook, but I have found most of his posts to be very intelligent and often quite thought provoking. I compare his posts to bebelina's posts, which honestly have been quite poor and rather shallow.

Riddler

I don't know how you mean about Bebelina, without her posts that try to prove that no matter the topic she enters there is a fuzzy-side to it, everything would get drastically bent out of shape with seriousness.

Her humour in writing is of far better quality than that of some posters who tend to be highly Xenophobic of other posters that are cultured differently.

Admittedly Personal attacks aren't fair... (Sorry, TONY1... There I said it... *Scuffs foot across the floor in a spiralling manner*)
Admittedly alot of us do on occasion say something extremely critical about a persons post(s) or their general understanding of reality and in doing so it does seem to trigger hearty hate campaigns, forged by a viscious circle of repeating retaliation.

(In other words ask Tony1 about the "Turning a Cheek" quote!)

My apologies if I am out of line. I simply meant to say that as far as real science ideas go, comparing the Professor to Bebelina is like comparing a Mack Truck to a VW Beetle.

Didn't mean to step on any toes.

Unless you have Administrator privilages, its not possible to delete any threads but the ones that you originally start is it? I have deleted my own threads by going to the first comment I made after starting the post. I just hit the delete button and poof the thread i started was gone.

As far as shallow goes......


bjl

didn't mean to make you feel that uneasy Riddler I was just pointing that out, because sometimes its very easy to miss words out, or read something with an incorrect understanding.

Yeah I made tony1 angry too. It's not altogether that hard.

:eek:

Surely not!


I don't believe that such a devout christian could get angry.

Then again, he winds me up something ruthless :)

Well, I bet you think that way, since you are such a very, very close friend to both the professor and HS....:rolleyes:

Lol, lol, lol.....:D :D :D

I have to admit, Tony1 does have a talent of stroking people not just the wrong way but with something that causes static.

He's the kind of guy people just love to hate because he likes winding them up.

Personally as much as I hate him, I .... I'm going to hate saying it... Like him, and Sciforums wouldn't be the same without him.

(Just no more Love Letters Tony1 people are talking :eek: )

P.s.
(No I haven't recieved any Tony1 love letters it was meant as a particially amusing joke.)

Come on Stryder, it's too late to take it back!
Your secrets out now :)

Yes, Tony1...you just love to hate him. :D

sciforums is centralizing. there used to maybe less posts in a varied amount of topics. Like psuedoscience. Now there is free thought, and religion as the main post sites, merely because thats where people read them the most, and where topics are raised.

Oh Stryder, please let me have a look at those Love Letters by Tony.

I'd love to read them. Can he write nice? What did he tell you then? Please give away your secret...;)

Is he in real a woman? :p

I think Tony1 writes love letters to Jesus.

Maybe he thinks Stryderunknown IS Jesus.

What about it Stryder? Are you the ONE? Should we be more respectful in our replies to you? :D

Golly gosh, I think probably Tony1 won't appreciate these jokes about his sole reason for living. :D

But then I don't think he visits this thread, so I think I'm safe, phew!!

Cheers to all
Teri

Did anyone mention to Tony that God answers knee-mails? Just curious.

Teri, I assure you he will have a look at Free Thoughts, this weekend when he is allowed by his mummy, or Stryder?Jesus to sit behind his keyboard again.;)

Don't know if he can find the right thread, but hey...let him pray to find to good one.:)
