Hmmmm... the irritation has yet to quit... maybe another approach should be taken "Don't be affended by my frank analysis, think of it as personality dialysis..."
"I know, I know about popular..." LOL... just having some fun
But if you haven't seen it, Wicked is definately a show worth seeing! (If you didn't like the song, give it a fair shake by seeing the set up to the schticks!) Great acting and some fabulous singing... a most excellent show.

Just out of curiosity, how did the whole srn347 saga end? He's been posting a lot over at the worldrps.com bull board, and one of our members just found your forum and this thread.
I don't mean to dredge up old business, and excuse me if I'm resurrecting a dead thread. However, I was struck with the similarities between our beloved Bull Board and this forum, as well as with the circumstances (especially "posting in dead threads.") A lot of our members feel the same about our forum as you obviously do about yours. A little cross-community communication can't be a bad thing. Besides, I imagine a handful of our members may find interest in your riddle forum...
Any information greatly appreciated: how did it end, was srn banned or warned, is the problem still going on, did the admins get involved, etc.
Thanks for your time, and think three!

He was warned repeadedly that his disruptive behavior was not appreciated. A non-binding community vote/poll was taken (with srn347 participating), and eventually the board administrator (William Wu) stepped in and banned him. (The first few posts on page three of this thread are probably a reasonable summary of the way that ended.)
There's a strong general suspicion that he's recently resurfaced under the nick of temporary, but if so he's been far less disruptive this time around and so temp is (sometimes grudgingly) tolerated.

He was warned repeatedly and when that didn't help he was eventually banned. Of course it's hard to really ban someone. I'm confident he's back under another name (a rather blatant example here). But he's not quite as bad as before, so I'd say it helped.

I thought this thread was locked? Anyway, I see master rosh has joined the wu forums. Srn347 is apparently your apprentice(or so I heard). Anyway, it ended the same way kaiji ended. To be specific, he was cruelly and unjustly banned. Kaiji was just left with debt and pain(about 6 million yen and 4 fingers cut off). however, unlike kaiji, the good guy(srn347 in this case) actually gets another series with a better ending(if there is an ending).

There was nothing cruel or unjust about it; hence why you're the only one that thinks it was, because you're him.

If he is 1 and I am 1, we are 2. If you think he is me, you think we are 1. You think 1=2? We are quite similar though. best friends actually. Also, just like I used to watch this forum from afar, I do the same with the rps bullboard(see the bridge for a link).

Rosh is not Srn's master in the context of this forum (if only because this isn't an rpg forum and such relations don't exist here in the first place). Nor is Rosh responsible for anything Srn did a) before he knew Srn, b) in places where he has no responsibility or control.

You mean after how long srn347 kept silent there, and he lasted the week(as did I here). And yes, I can add some extra zeroes, but if I was going to I would have already. Also, srn347 was apparently unbanned, but something doesn't seem right. He has no posts, he is a newbie(I know his posts weren't deleted), and he emailed me saying his password was changed so he can't even log in. Which one of you staff is the one who did that? Why mess with him? How could you bring him any lower after banning him?

By my calculations you only lasted 6 days 4 hours and 2 minutes. Now 168 hours is not equal to 148 hours and 2 minutes. You did well to last so long, but I feel as it can be seen you don't have the control. So maybe a longer period of banning should be enforced on you so you can show your control.
The only person capable of changing another person's password is Mr. Wu.

I doubt William had the time or inclination to unban him. More likely is that srn's IP number has changed in the last half year or so. Or perhaps there's a natural time-out to a ban; in any case it's very doubtful there was any intent behind it.

If an account is deleted, the posts remain. If a new account under the same name is (re)made, the old posts are not re-attributed to that (new) account.

Well, considering none of us can do that (except our admin who's otherwise occupied), I would have to guess none.
If srn wasn't the one to remake that account, then someone else did; and then naturally he wouldn't have the password.

We could try and tell on him to his mother. But really, he doesn't rank high on my list of people I want to waste effort on one way or another. You're overinflating his importance.
And if you think banning is low, then you lack perspective. It simply says that enough is enough. He had ample chances to improve his behaviour, and took none.

Time is relative to space, and srn347's space from the forum wasn't constant, so can anyone tell if he was off by 12 hours?
