In this instance, I had less patience than you Harold. I gave him 30 days to chill out and re-evaluate his coming on here with an agenda.

Heh! 30 days? I'd rather see him gone at his own hand, which I fully expect would have been the result of my post, but I'm good with your decision, as it gives him time to reflect on his agenda, as to whether it belongs here, or not.

I fully expect he'll just disappear, which is fine with me.

I'm sick to death of the smart mouthed individuals we seem to be attracting of late. I'm going to start eliminating them at the slightest provocation, and I'll do it publicly, so others can see it gets them nowhere on this board. Here, we play nice with others, we don't wave the red flag in front of the bull.

Come here with the intention of learning and sharing, all politely, or don't come here.

I was told this "Bigbraintheory" guy was somehow using my IP??!?! I'm not even sure how that is possible. It's been a bit since I have logged in due to a second new baby in my house. I really don't think it was possible this person was close enough to me to get into my home wifi. I'm sure their is another way, just didn't want anyone to think I would say crappy things on the forum. I don't role that way.

The records at hand do not support that accusation. It may be in your best interest to explore your source to determine what his/her agenda may be.

EDIT:


I stand corrected. After being advised by another, I took a second look and found that Bbt did, indeed, post from the same IP, although that isn't reflected by an opposite search. I have no clue how this happened. but if he returns to the board, he best have a good explanation.

My apologies.

I am making this post so those with an interest will see the Edit, above.
I expect each of us will be accountable when a mistake is made, and that includes me.

There are sites on the web, the so called "dark web" that will allow you, by proxy, to appear as if you are connecting from any IP you wish to use.

Finding someone else's public IP is a bit tricky, but can also be done. Some times it's a simple as getting an email from someone, or getting them to visit a web site you control, etc. And of course the simple "war driving", riding around with a laptop and software to ping all the wifi AP's in range.

Although doing so for the purpose of posting rudeness as someone else seems a bit childish.
 
The Dark Web and dark net, consists of web pages and data that are beyond the reach of search engines. I'm not sure you can pick and choose an IP address to use, also not sure anyone wants to go there. :|

Hello, Convo from 10 years ago! I am just doing my reading on this forum and enjoyed the last hour immensely. This thread took a "dark" turn didn't it?!
 
So..yet again like others before you, you fail to see the problem.
It's not just an easy answer which you want. Can't happen. You have not even touched the surface of this forum as a resource so don't go there.

Read and learn what you are doing please before that Amonium nitrate makes another statistic.
Like everyone else, you justify your qualifications and defend your abilities instead of stepping back and looking at all of our answers to your inquest.

For starters, what did you start with and what steps you did to come to the conclusion that you are at a loss for what to do now? This will help us help you.

B.S.
...It is the humbled one who admits unknowing and begins to learn...
Sassy comments. Not justified. Regardless.

Why are you reviving an old post like this, and at the same minute you register?
I have now been reading this whole thread and there is nothing sassy or unjustified about his post in my eyes.
The OP was completely out of line.
He was given a lot of advice and reacted by biting the hand feeding him.
 
No, your were not.

Dredging up 9-10 year old comments, and adding nothing thing to the conversation says a lot about you, however.

Drop your ego when you login here. That is my best advice.

Time for more coffee.
 
I was not the one the one talking about the ammonium nitrate.
No but you were the one calling an old comment sassy, even if the comments seem completely warranted.
I hope you will heed galenrogs comment to you.

Both of you Moderators need to chill.
I’m out of this fiasco.
I’m in several forums and have never seen such arrogant sarcasm.
Much to your liking, you can have this forum. I’ll stick to the ones I’m in that treat people equally and professionally and know how to speak to one another.
Cheers

Just guessing wildly, I kind of suspect Steveo and the OP to be either identical or at least very close.
Just my guess though.

He signed up and posted his first defence post at the same minute.

Nothing wrong with that, as long as one keep a civil language and are willing to learn.

Yes that was a very adult professional reply

A bit late to welcome you, but you are welcome as long as you adhere to our rules.
You definitely know how to make an entrance, that is for sure ;)

You need to grow some thicker skin.
If you come to a forum like this, you WILL be corrected if you are wrong.
If you misbehave we will address that too.
What we do in here can be dangerous and if people do not understand what they do, they can injure themselves or others.

So if you are going to stay, we ask a few things from our members, study the book about refining jewelers scrap by C.M.Hoke,
next study the safety section and the section about dealing with waste.
Next search the forum for what information you need.

When this is done most members are ready to start asking questions to what they do not find or understand.
