Would someone in DT please copy my neutral tag before this user’s account gets burned to the ground?  Thanks.

I have excluded two users who are too trigger-happy with neg tags:
Code:
~willi9974
~tweetious


Check the username. Does it remind you the user alia?

Roll Eyes

Get a grip.  No other way to say this:  That is ridiculously stupid.

Or am I Greg Maxwell (nullc in many venues) because I call myself “nullius”?  (Someone actually suggested that, years ago.)


On this subject of the PMs though, if English is not the first language of the sender (newalias) I think it only compounds the confusion. His post history shows he has been active in the German language boards as well

I noticed that.  But I don’t think it is the problem.

Most people are not actually reading his PM—just panicking, and jumping to conclusions without even reading.  I admit that I myself misread it the first time; please see the edit to my prior post on this thread.

but his trust currently shows the following message which might mean he is no longer in control of his account: This user's email address was changed recently

I noticed that, too; but it does not mean much, unless it matches other evidence.  Perhaps the user may be experimenting with his own account security; compare what my prior post said about disabling e-mail addresses.
