I'm Melie. You guys got me. ohmy.gif

Right.

Elba is NOT Melie. Melie is Melie.

Although this may have started out as a lighthearted attempt at humour, it's gotten out of hand.

A "confession" that places any other member in the line for an account ban and for derision by other members aware or unaware of the joke isn't funny. At all.

I'm just glad that Melie has been so forgiving about the whole thing.

I'm closing this and putting an end to any further rumours whilst the mods discuss just how hard we could throw the book at someone over it all.

I'd put a smiley here, but I have my serious face on at the moment.

Oh, alright - _smile.gif

Topic Closed.

Sorry, I come from the better be safe than sorry school. &shrug I guess that seems terribly inefficient to some of you, and I'm sorry about that. It's just how I am.

PS - I am trying to look at everything.

locate those ip's
if they're really far from each other, then obviously they're both legit.
it would suck as hell if a real melie came back to find out that her account has been banned because elba has made a joke.

To some extent, I do agree about the multiple account rule. The problem is intent. If you want to have one account for community posting and another for submissions, I think that's fine. I can understand wanting different names for the two. The problem is that more often than not, people make multiple accounts to evade punishment, to spam, etc.

Anyway, yes, I'm looking at that Thomas. This situation is retarded. I shouldn't be having to spend my time (that I honestly don't have right now) researching this. The nice, respectful thing to do would be to send me a PM explaining a few things. I guess that would be too much to ask for though.

Edit - doughnut, I did that a bit ago, that's why "Melie" isn't banned right now. xD

You can't just ask Elba to try to message you from Melie's account? Hm. On another thought, she probably wont bc she doesn't want that account to be banned.

While we're on that note - nquack was me, guys. I just thought it'd be really fun to typeee like disss huh.gif huh.gif huh.gif.

You know, there's no reason to be sarcastic and condescending. I think that I've been one of the most lenient staff members, that I've let people get away with a lot and that I mostly find the humor in things.

So thanks, I really appreciate your attitude.

I'm done with this whole thing for now. I've got better things to do than to get this type of flack because I'm being patient and fair.

lol, I wasn't trying to sound condescending and if I did, I'm sorry. The sarcastic part at the end was me making fun of the situation in general, not you.

At the end of the day, guys, just bear with us. Let's resolve this particular situation before we dive into a big review of the multiple accounts rule, or anything like that. Although, for the record, I think it should remain in place.

Yes. Tama kept insisting (for some reason) that Melie and I were the same person. So I just made a topic to play along with him, but I thought my sarcasm in my first post was obvious. Also, the IPs definitely wouldn't have matched shrug.gif

Yeah. & I apologize to you, Melie, I didn't think it would go this far. I thought the admins would check our IPs and realize I wasn't being serious.
