I'm not answering anymore posts without trying to google the poster first

[bigtree]

Not really, but geesh! You really can't tell who you're talking to here, agreeing with, sympathizing with, who's been moderating conservative forums . . . and I hate the shit out of freepers. I'm going back into my shell now.

my name's Ron Fullwood, btw . . . and I really do hate the shit out of republicans . . . of course, I could be lying . . .

[ScreamingMeemie]

1. You could be...but what does it really matter if you're agreeing with

me? I never could get that. :hi:

[bigtree]

9. Damn, good question.

I think I'm thinking too much. Back into zombie mode.

[AZCat]

2. There's a real nut with my username...

over at LGF (I think - I haven't looked in a while).


I've always wondered if people thought I was that person. :shrug:

[bigtree]

6. I found a poster spouting some crap with my name, my real name

not my username, and one of the other posters said, hey, didn't you tell us your name was something else? He was so busted. Must have picked it up by chance or design somewhere.

[AZCat]

8. That would NOT be a pleasant experience...

I'm glad he was busted. Stealing one's identity is not something to be dealt with lightly, especially if he was using your real name (as opposed to a "handle").

[JimmyJazz]

3. I don't appear in any google searches

(unless you use my old user name) - does this mean you won't post to me? :shrug:

BTW - in order to influence your decision, I can tell you that not too many Clash fans are on the right - seeing as Joe, MIck and Paul were/are socialists :)

[bigtree]

22. hey, I'm too lazy to google

dial-up snail modem, weak eyes, no glasses yet.

I like The Clash, you pass . . .

Yankee dollar talk
To the dictators of the world
In fact it's giving orders
An' they can't afford to miss a word

I'm so bored with the U...S...A...
But what can I do?

[blm]

4. Have fun with BLM, bigtree. Bureau of Land Management beats lil ol' blm.

heheh.

[AZCat]

5. I've read entire books on you!

Not really - I only got through the first chapters. It was a loaner.

[bigtree]

14. Bureau of Land Management

:mad:

I like reading your stuff blm. I couldn't hate you if I found you laid out in the centerfold of American Spectator.

[blm]

19. heh...I wouldn't mind if some old nude shots turned up of me anywhere.

At my age, I'd appreciate checking out me old hot self again. heheh

7. had a DUer google my posts once, told me he didn't like my politcs

like i gave flying fuck.

[bigtree]

11. hmm, flying fuck

that would be adult search . . . be right back . . .

[MrModerate]

10. Google me! Google me! Ooh! Ooh!

It can only increase my profile, which is the name of the game, after all.

[bigtree]

12. I'm frickin bored with googling mine

just a bunch of uppity, pompous babble . . . even folks with my name have boring profiles.

[Bouncy Ball]

13. Just use your gut instincts. Your radar, if you will.

If a poster sets off your radar, even a little bit, do an advanced search, then maybe google their user name (remembering they might use a different username elsewhere).

If anything comes up, just keep your distance or hit alert if it is warranted. I keep a list of usernames who have set off my radar AND whom I have found questionable stuff on. Then I just watch and wait. They are always tombstoned in the end.

Just listen to your gut. If a post makes you cock your head or think "WTF?" pay attention to that, but don't go overboard.

[bigtree]

15. BB, you're tenacious

I'm a bit lazy and gullible.

[catmandu57]

16. I googled my username

recently and found some foul shit that a freep obviously thought was quite funny, if my skin were thinner I'd be looking for an attorney.

[bigtree]

17. Some creep lifted a DU post of mine on the dead Reagan, got my real name

and posted it on his site, complete with paragraph by paragraph rebuttal, or so he thought. Tripe, but mildly entertaining.

[Longgrain]

18. Google my user name for some yummy rice dishes...

And about a thousand links back to DU.

[bigtree]

23. rice

yummy!

[jonnyblitz]

20. they should change their user names for each forum

not very stealth are they?

[bigtree]

25. they could be innocent

or just arrogant. Either way, I don't want to hear one freepish peep from 'em.

[Bok_Tukalo]

21. Googling Bok Tuklo will get you nowhere

Leave out the "a"

[bigtree]

27. situated in the confluence of the Sukenatcha and Running Tiger creeks

in the Choctaw Nation, without the 'a'. Pretty cool. But with the 'a' it sends me back here. Cool too.

[Bok_Tukalo]

28. It's actually a Choctaw pun on my last name

Good luck!

[mongo]

[Solly Mack]

30. google my name & you get a RW site quoting me from DU and

calling me a traitor.

I guess they didn't like what I said. (oh-fucking-well)
