I like Orphaned Chinese Pigeons. Hell to go with the OCP theme, I dig Omni Consumer Products as well. They brought to the public such wonderful homicidal law enforcment robots like Robocop 1 and 2 as well as ED 209.

I remember when Tony used to start shit on here, I would sometimes wish homicidal robots would run amuck in Tony's neighborhood.

Wait.....what was I talking about again?

I remember when Tony would say something that he knew would get a rise out of everyone stateside... and then act innocent and not understand why the anger.

Whatever happened to this Tony person? Didn't someone recently float the theory that Tony and Captain Choad are one and the same?

He was finally banned (about 6 months later than he shoulda been) for all his hate speech.

But you can only ban a specific username, correct? Nothing could stop him from coming back under a different name and posting again. Of course, if Denny or Brian realized it was him, I'm sure they would address it or at least fire off a pre-emptive warning, but I'm just saying "in theory".

There are ways around that such as the Server or IP address

Denny let us know that the ban on his IP addresses was carried over during the creation of this board.

Basically, anyone banned for life on the old board is banned here as well.

He is real. Bendis and I each met Tony when we were signing in Australia. I hadn't read many of his posts on this board, but he did post on my Kabuki messageboard and I read those. His posts on my board were pretty enthusiastic and sometimes in copius amounts, but nothing rude, controversial or problematic. They were always civil and usually questions about the work.

When I met him, he seemed like a nice and very respectful kid. Probably 17 or 18. And it seemed like he was very involved with his artwork. I remember him showing me a very touching and moving comic story that he wrote and drew about his real life situation of being abandoned as a child. As a baby he was left in a basket. Fortunately a family found him and raised them as thier own, but it seemed like he had some issues about it that he was working out through his artwork and his autobiographical comicbook stories. Not knowing where he came from and that sort of thing.

I related to his work and appreciated his dedication and boldness in laying all his personal stuff on the line in a story like that. He was very genuine and open.

That is my limited first hand experience with him. I hope he is doing ok. I haven't seen his posts on my board for a while.

Yeah, there's not that many Australian posters here, and as a result of their domain IP, it'd stand out and be fairly unique to those who can view such things.

So, they'd have an early warning system in place even if he were to log in somehow with another provider or what not.

I wouldn't worry about him getting around the bans, however.

Interesting to know. For whatever it's worth, anyone with a decent amount of networking knowledge can easily skirt around a block on an IP address. If someone was banned, and they wanted back on badly enough, they could get around it.
