Title: ANN (and me not being there)
Post by: Holley on September 01, 2004, 05:17:22 PM

Just a note to say that I don't post of ANN.lu, apparently someone's been there pretending to be me, and has been behaving like a butthead.

Thanks to Ryu for the heads up on that.

(I have nothing against the site, I just find the layout confusing ... plus I'm onn too many boards already!)

Give one of the moderators a mail, and tell them you're being impersonated. All impersonated posts are removed.

Is it really someone impersonating him, or just someone who has chosen to use the exact same "handle" since ANN doesn't really have a way to secure usernames?

KennyR is right. They should also be able to track down the IP that's making all the posts.

The posts have been removed - anti-Peg trolling to excess I gather.

You can post there without registering, which is probably whats hapenned - not sure if this gets the IP address recorded or not (?) but I'll ask :-)

I don't really care who did it really, just wanted to point out that it wasn't me, in case anyone read it and took offence.  I've now posted there just to confirm what Ryu already said to defend me.
