And a fourth warning has been issued to KirkSkywalker, for originally calling Leon-Caboose a crybaby, in the Reason for a Death Star thread, on page 9...

Therefore, KirkSkywalker gets banned for 2 weeks...

And after checking things out and learning that SarahStar is another account for KSW, SarahStar also gets banned for two weeks.
Warnings and Bans apply to individuals, not accounts, so an individual with multiple accounts sees warnings being added up from both accounts, and all consequences of these warnings are applied to both accounts equally...

You are, but it's endorsed by the staff.
Time for the pills now.

I'm not sure what KSW was trying to pull with the SarahStar sock puppet account. Perhaps be extra annoying? Have an account that would allow him/her/it to stay active after the KSW one got banned again, or actually trying to have a "me too, I agree with him" fake supporter.

I think it was just to avoid possible bans, to "reset" his counter, in a way...
SarahStar did appear before his last ban had ended, after all...

And he didn't even proxy in? He must have known he was going to get caught.

See now i would consider what he did to be what they call a "sockpuppet".

Proxies are not foolproof means of going undetected as a duplicate account, but no, KSW/SS did not use a proxy IIRC.

To be fair, KSW/SS wasn't marked as a duplicate for several days. We don't automatically redflag duplicate IPs here.

For future reference, ban evasion is in itself an immediately bannable offense adding to the term of the current ban. I did think to put that in our enforcement policy.

While there's a strong possibility of an attempted ban evasion here, there's nothing absolutely certain about it. So for now, I think I'll error on the side of fairness and assume the SarahStar sock was stupid attempt at a "me too, I agree with him" fake supporter.

I agree with the fairness, since SarahStar appeared not long before his 2 day ban would have been over...

Two additional warnings for KSW:

In the « What’s accepted in SW canon » thread, the « put down the hashpipe” image in response to Mike’s request for proof of what KSW said, about
RoTS contradicting or precluding elements of the TCW animated series
.

In the same thread, called Lucky “Lucky-duck”.

As always, anyone feeling this is unfair can appeal to either Mike D or JMS...

I concur here, with Praeothmin's action, which I myself felt would not be appropriate to do more than report it since the insults were directed specifically at me, and it would have looked in poor form by having me issue the warnings. I was going to give him a warning for his remarks in "Pro-Trek or pro-Wars?" debate for this roundabout insult directed at Praeothmin:

KirkSkywalker wrote:
Praeothmin wrote:
KirkSkywalker wrote:But it wouldn't be FUNNY....
But it wasn't...
This from the president of the Jerry Lewis fan-club....
ROTFLMAO
To which Praeothmin replied:
Praeothmin wrote:

ROTFLMAO
What kind of reply is this?
You're not making any sense...
KirkSkywalker then make this remark:
KirkSkywalker wrote:Neither do French people when they laugh at his movies.
This is in my opinion KSW making a jab at Praeothmin's French Quebec background. However in a PM to me on KSW's behavior, Praeothmin was quite gracious in asking me to overlook this incident. If I misunderstood that, please let me know, and I'll issue him a warning, and probably a ban since KSW has exceeded his limit.
