For the record: I post with the name Snit. Period.

Why did you stop posting as "Steve Carroll's dog"? I thought that was pretty funny.

Rotten Apple
He wants to hump your leg now.

Carroll is on record claiming his dog posts from his house (well, Steve merely claimed he was "pretty sure" that was the case):

I wasn't there but I'm pretty sure my dog got up to the keyboard and created an entry. You saw that cat playing piano on TV lately, right? Well... my dog doesn't like to be upstaged. Now I just have to teach him about "context" ... -----

The accusation that I post from Steve's house with Steve's IP is just absurd... but it is the best Sandman can come up with to try to defend his buddy.

Sandman
Snit, you used the same account for both Omar and "Steve Carroll's dog". After all these years, you should have known better than that.

Are you saying the same person posts as both? If so, since Steve has acknowledged whoever is posting as his dog posts from his house, then Steve's house is also the source of Omar's posts.

Frankly I find that unlikely - Omar does not have the "tells" that give Steve away.

But here you claim that the posts from "Steve Carroll's dog" comes from Steve Carrolls IP, which means that Omars posts also comes from Steves IP, which is less likely :-D

You are attempting role reversal - and thus admitting you are a troll.
