Hi Mr. Nerd. I know this may be asking too much, but as I am currently in a near internet black hole in Fiji I am unable to go to find an i-site to follow a matter at the Herald Politics blog.
About 5 days ago I went on line, while in Australia, and found that someone or someones had posted under my name on the politics blog. I cried foul in a comment, but then trying to draw out the culprit in a humorous fashion, who I believed was either AFY, Curmudgeon or Festus, I added some (what I meant to be humorous) one liner comments under those three names with comments like "Please don't mis-Ocuppy Shaun", a few verbatim snarks tossed my way lately by some of the other right wingers in their name and for AFY, I posted in support of me as his favorite commenter (a comment he has actually made though in a sarcastic tone) I think he is the one who complained and got me banned.
I thought because it was on Australian time (the middle of the night there), that the boys at the blog would catch on. But John Stark apparently has had his sense of humor removed, no doubt from a tumor on his humor, and though he and I go back, he has decided to treat me like dirt, refusing to give more than a cryptic "You have received a death penalty for posting under another's name comment and asserting that I neither deserve nor am owed any more of an explanation. To me this is pretty astonishing as I had never heard that rule and it was only to draw out whomever used my handle. And to anyone with a sense of satire or sarcasm it should have been obvious.
At any rate he has apparently not made any effort to find out who posted as Shaun and I don't really want to see even a yahoo like AFY banned for such a silly reason.
But I am hoping maybe you can e-mail me if you have read anything there about this or if he has outed me, since being banned means I can't even read the blog until I return to an i-SITE. The comments were under the Occupy bellingham discussion five days ago and my comment crying fol was there the last time I could read. He asked me to narc on whomever and I pointed out as I cannot even read what he has left up I can't point anything out and wouldn't anyway.
As I have also taken issue with some fellow lefties at times, I may be persona non gratis with you as well, but since you do have a sense of humor and perspective I thought maybe you might do me this one little favor.
My e-mail is shaunm390@gmail.com. Please feel free to take this comment down or leave it up for anyone else who wants to personally tell me what an A hole I am. If you e-mail me I will also share my identity, if you don't know it already, as you and I share a common bond I am happy to tell you about.
Stark says he is too busy to devote the kind of time Sam did, like personally telling commenters in e-mails if he has issues rather than his tactics lately which have been to leave up comments about me that Sam would never allow and trashing my, still civil, responses. He has also removed some comments about me that went way over the line while leaving up my responses which also made me seem out of context and foolish. Nice guy.
I gather he has been thrust into it reluctantly and is burned out on the blog.
At any rate any enlightenment you or anyone else there can provide will be appreciated.
