Discussion about the Suspension List

Quote: Wizard

For the benefit of me, as well as others, here my hall of shame of members who have been suspended since 12/25/10.

Member	Suspended On	Number Days	Reason	Suspension Ends
bjgod/blackjackgolden	12/25/2010	Life	Multiple identities	Death
Martin	12/25/2010	5	Personal insult	12/30/2010
JerryLogan	?	7	Hijacking and personal insult	?
mkl654321	11/28/2010	5	Personal insult	12/3/2010
JerryLogan	11/28/2010	5	Personal insult	12/3/2010
Chuck	11/13/2010	Life	Insulting the Wizard	Death

The list implies some kind of equivalence between myself and JerryLogan, which I consider to be the highest insult. Also, inaccurate.

Gamblers who stay on the right side of the bell curve make math geeks boil in anger.

Umm, no. I'd fall into your "math geek" category, but I'm also on the right side of the bell curve. I'm quite happy about that, actually.

There's a big line, however, between being on the right side of the bell curve, and suggesting that one can *move* the bell curve toward the right. Effectively, a system huckster is promising the latter.

How? You can see it shows Jerry was suspended twice and you once.

Dont you think you were a bit harsh on christmas

Nah. Jerry has been hit for multiple offenses. You have been stung once in what was essentially a "both of you go to your corners and cool down" episode. Plus maybe a warning, I think.

I'm still stuck on that issue I raised a couple of days ago of not understanding how both of you can correspond with me so politely and intelligently yet brawl with each other like a couple of spoiled six year olds. (And if anyone considers that a personal insult, I will apologize for it -- I just thought it described the situation reasonably well.)

Dont you think that you were a bit harsh on christmas!

Golly. Looks as if yet another poster is deliberately trying to get banned. Are these clowns all posting from the same IP address or the same MAC address?

As I said before, looks as if its going to be a tedious process.

Okay then

I'm getting a new IP address late on today since I got a new card for christmas so I thought I would put the one I am using now to full use before I switch! Which means I can finally start posting on www.blackjackinfo.com again..........

Well, Wizard, when you encounter a spammer as blatant as this, I suppose that suspending and banning are not sufficient punishment. When you have his location established, I suggest you consider contacting the authorities and pressing criminal charges. That would be a hassle, but it would likely get the attention of others who would consider such obnoxious behavior.

After much though I think that the wizard is kinder than most of forum sites that block IP Addresses after little or no warnings.. So I guess the wizard is actually a King among kings by the second chances that he gives unlike many other people in his position...
