sedrosken,
I suppose that some informational clarity to the members I have mentioned would be helpful. This forum operates under the guise that members use an alias. Beyond that, there are a few here we can consider imposters. The phrase "sock puppets" has been used before in regards to these criminally illusive users. Therefore, here is a list and commentary regarding the members I mentioned:
MEMBER: Tannin
STATUS: Imposter
True ID: Tony Wilson
Mr. Wilson's cantankerous and wildly arrogant personality has caused this elderly man to hide behind the cheeky alias Tannin. Although, tannins are astringent, the word blithely hides the real man behind the peacefulness of a fruit.
MEMBER: Tea
STATUS: Honest
True ID: Tetley Cuthberta Tea
This dear girl is the genuine article. If you need a confidant, she's your girl. Her honesty in all matters, including Tannin, has been a welcome addition to the other superlative members on this forum. As her middle names implies, she certainly adds a brilliance to this forum that no other member can match.
MEMBER: Buck
STATUS: Imposter
True ID: Buckley Winchester Russel
Although Mr. Russel uses his first name on this forum, it is merely a decoy for the aloof, mostly unsympathetic drunk that this fat git really embodies. He realizes that a name like Buck seems harmless, and thus hides his true identity behind it. Violently stupid is an understatement.
MEMBER: Bartender
STATUS: Honest
True ID: The Bartender
Yes, this is what I do and I'll gladly serve you any beverage you request (proper ID notwithstanding).
MEMBER: Cougtek
STATUS: Imposter
True ID: Charles Michel
In an attempt to escape the realities of politics, Monsieur Michel hides his Belgian roots behind his Québécois alter-ego, Cougtek. His violent temper was craftfully trained under the Belgian youth movement, Jeunes Réformateurs Libéraux de Jodoigne. Hence, his public personality of smiles and kindness, compress his deep-seated anger into violent reactions that come alive on this forum through the parables of his life as a demanding computer technician.
MEMBER: Handruin
STATUS: Imposter
True ID: Handy
He is a true master with a Stiletto (and I don't mean heels). The jobs for which he has been contracted makes me wonder if he does not host this site from behind bars. A computer geek? A programmer? Nonsense. A front for the true talent that impairs a decent man. How else could the cost for this site be covered?
So, a short list it is, but it helps you see the imposters you should avoid. With the two honest ones listed, you must add the many outstanding members on this site with which you should feel safe to interact.
Although I do question, sedrosken, why you hide your real identity, Ross Ndeek.
