Quote: NathanTakes a deep breath. Here goes my confession. I'm Tasha on another website. :)
If I was warned about “stirring the pot” in reguards to another forum (not sure how my post did that but it’s not a big deal), then this post is certainly worthy of a ban.

Quote: AxelWolfI'm not sure that he was calling you or anyone in particular old-men.
I'm pretty sure he was referring to Aristotle, Socrates, and other "Ancients," as he and I had a somewhat lively (albeit brief) exchange on the relevance of the writings of the Ancients, i.e. of the "old men."

I know you want us all to ignore this, but it seems as if we are too far down the rabbit hole for that.
Let's see this thing out and get a conclusion and if possible. We may never find out the truth 100%, but I feel that we can have a situation where she is left with no outs and we can be 99% whats really going on.

You're a stubborn guy aren't you.
We know she's leading us down a blind alley, a dead end, a cul de sac, a wild goose chase. Not getting closure on this is going to frustrate you/us, no end.
If/when we nuke Nathan, there will be grumbles, if we don't there will be grumbles.
This is massively -ev. We are not approaching the 'must hit' moment, we are sitting here losing while Andrew Nathan is laughing his her arse off.

Quote: OnceDear
If/when we nuke Nathan
Why do you even bother to write 'If'.
I mean, it's a foregone conclusion.
That would qualify her for the max amount of PC protection; those who question her claim will be seen as mean, racist bullies.
Clever, clever girl, she has us chasing our tails and biting our own flanks.

I've read that suggestion elsewhere. Nathan does indeed portray herself a certain way. However, that will have ZERO effect on how she is treated.
If she had portrayed herself any other way, she would still be here. If she infringes the moderators interpretation of the rules ( still a decision for the moderators ) his/her treatment / penalty will be the same.
As a FYI, I might be in the minority in that I do not care if she's a 300lb male in his mom's basement, laughing his arse off at the debate his 'character' is generating. The 'character' will receive consideration for the behaviour of that 'character' under this forum's rules. Nathan HAS lied, not of itself against the rules.
Other actions are much closer to infringement.

Maybe I mistook his intent, but I interpreted that he was saying I'm not a man of my word and wouldn't reward an honest confession.

More like, under one scenario we have a forum with no Nathan and way less activity and forum visits.
On the other, we have Nathan, who has broken no rules, takes abuse without complaining and forces nobody to read her posts and a handful of obsessed posters stalking someone they don't know.

Pretty hard to look foolish when you're respecting and complying with the rules as they are published in trying to moderate this. We're working hard not to be arbitrary, but also to act in the best interests of the forum.
It may be the rules need to be examined for possible revision. It may be current rules are sufficient. But I've spoken many times about guidance and gray areas complicating things on other decisions; no real difference in this case.

By now it is obvious without a doubt Nathan is not who she is portraying herself to be. The only thing it accomplishes is disruption and conflict. Personally, I don't care either way. I still stand by my vote to make her a mod. What could it hurt?

Out of your last 100 posts here, how many do you think were gambling related? 10 or 12? So how does one decide what's inane? I dont even look at most of the topics you frequent.
Why can't everyone just view what they want and stay out of the others and let that be good enough?

Nathan now posts solely in one thread, and it’s titied Nathan’s corner. She never posts blogs. Thetefore, anyone who doesn’t like her or her posts is one click away from being able to block that thread and it’ll be like she doesn’t exist in their world. That’s one of the reasons Mike gave her that thread to post in.
But instead , it’s become a thread that not only doesn’t seem to be blocked by many , but also is constantly posted in by others and is always high on the recent threads list. If you don’t like her posts , why haven’t you blocked it ?
Quote: 1MatterToMotionAdvice is the noun. (But you were probably kidding.)
Yes good catch
In my mind, Yes she was also Kendry, again willing to make a small wager on it, but not sure how to prove it.
So here is where I get punished, but I do believe most everything she posted is true and by no means is she a troll. She is simply, using a word I grew up with, slow.
To many of us it is hard to believe, but there are people like her out there. She works at Walgreens, making next to nothing, lives at home and visits casinos. She thinks they are the way to a better life with imaginary winnings playing low stakes. She is not smart enough to understand what Axel suggested and was the person WoV saw.
The stories that we see as fantasy are her everyday life. She is an moron to use a better phrase.
Amazing that many see her as a long term troll playing a game. I see her as a simple low IQ person living the only life she knows. Not sure how so many intelligent people on this site can’t see this and look for the conspiracy theory there.
We are on a site where banned members come back time and time again, for whatever reason. But in this case we have a member who has come back after being banned and now has infatuated members with their stupidity. And it’s a debate on how to deal with them.

Moron was, in my (and Boz's) lifetime, an accepted medical and psychological descriptor for a person of a particular mental capacity. I'm quite sure, within the context of what he wrote, that Boz was using it in this way.
However, it is no longer an accepted descriptor, is noted as archaic, and is now considered a slur. So, it was not a "better" word to use. I am asking that no further posts in any thread here use that word; it will be taken as an insult from this point forward.
Thank you.

Notice, we(me) have Asked this a number of times and she has avoided the question.
Ya, I know, it's not a requirement, but she says she is willing to meet up in person and talk on the Phone. But not Sype, or send pics. I find this a bit suspicious. Something isn't right.
I have a feeling she knows she can't because the gig will be up.
Perhaps she Is she pretending to have a low IQ for trolling. Her writing isn't bad, It's just mostly pointless and strange.

I agree about the writing style. It isn’t moronic or uneducated at all, certainly not what you’d expect from someone mentally slow. Proper grammar, sentence structure.
I think it’s the stream of consciousness style of her writing that tends to be annoying to read. She constantly types verbatim what she was thinking back and forth in her mind and puts it all in quotes.
That style is extremely unusual , I’ve not seen anyone type like that before. And it leads to posts being two to three times longer than necessary to get the point across. And often times the point is just something very simple.
Maybe a drunken, abusive father or boyfriend or brother beat her upside the head one time too many.
Maybe she flamed out from too much crack.
Maybe she's fairly smart but quit school at age 13.
Lots of possibilities; only one true answer.
