I have an important announcement. Srn347 is not Sm347 from a different computer. Sm347 framed srn347 and got him banned then continually framed him. Surprisingly, sm347 was not banned.

Sm347 made only a few posts. Srn347 was doomed. Even if Srn347 was being framed, he would have still been booted. I'm doubtful due to the way Sm347 wrote, including when he writes his age.

Whether srn347 should have been booted is questionable, but permanent ban was going too far. Sm347 should be banned though, that is without doubt.

He posted only a few times. He has not come back since. Maybe he will mature in time and will be suitable to rejoin the forums. Who knows.

Even if srn347 posted more often, sm347 made much spamier posts. At least srn347 tried to solve the riddles and gave some debate over it, sm347 just bragged and insulted.

Right.... were you reading the same posts I was? Srn347 made over 600 of the most rediculous and completely irrelevant posts on the forum. And when it was pointed out he did nothing but attack the other riddlers. Sm347 whoever it was, made only a few posts with nothing particularly offensive and has not come back since. I'm happy letting sleeping dogs lie, why are you trying to stir up trouble?

I am not, nor was srn347. He posted in no attempt to attack others, but he did solve riddles with what although were unusual unexpected answers, could have been correct. Sm347, posted nothing but spam, no doubt about that.

Oh really... then if you weren't srn347, then who are you? And how do you claim to know so much about what went on?

I didn't think patronising others came under solving riddles. It's different in Iceman's case. Tongue Hehe  
 
Srn347, only ever had 2 correct responses. EVER. 1 of those I am ambiguous about the other he was actaully attempting to solve a problem.

This looks fairly similar to something Srn347 would post. Nothing wrong with that though.

Likely, but I think we'd all be better off if you could instead  
impress us with some good mathematics so that we'd  
have somthing to talk about for a few days/weeks.

Well, you do a good impression of him, with the interests you share, the types of post you make and types of questions you ask. And of course there's the out of the blue defense of someone long gone for no apparent reason.
But it doesn't really matter one way or the other, as long as you're not as disruptive as he was then.

Were it not for temporary, I very much doubt anyone here would even think about srn347, let alone spend time cursing his name for sm347's posts.
 
On the other hand, it seems rational to suppose that anyone behaving in a manner sufficiently similar to that in which srn347 behaved will find themselves experiencing a similar fate - particularly now that people have been reminded of the precedent.

The reason I know so much about what went on is because I have observed this forum from afar for a while now, and I finally decided to register. The reason I brought the matter of srn347's posts to discussion is because I found his ban to be an injustice, and I destroy injustice. The fact that as some of you say, "my answers are similar to his" must be because great minds think alike(not to brag).

No.  He was writing them.  Maybe it's just coincidence but it's too much for me.  Check the last two posts in this topic.
 
Never mind.  It is not a coincidence.  Someone get rid of this jackass.

Doesn't this forum have a filter, or perhaps you evaded it with the prefix jack in front of that word? Anyway, coincidence is in the eye of the beholder(and so are many other adjectives).

Actually the temporary's post (just) in the first link seemed to me to be relevant.

Relevance did not influence my decision.  The fact that he uses exactly the same phrasing and responds to all of the same topics as srn (coupled with his lack of any real understanding of the question) -- that is what influenced me.

Srn347's post is right above mine in that thread. Compare the two.

I have compared as you have suggested. The only difference seems to be you use more punctuation and present yourself a little better. The ideas are very similar (please do not take this as a compliment).
