There have been a number of commenters who have impersonated other commenters on Dvorak Uncensored. You will be warned once and the next time you will be banned. If someone impersonates you, just leave a comment. It’s not necessary to leave multiple comments.
What part of “At the end of the day, a sea change is coming out of left field,” don’t you understand?
Who dat?
Who dat say, “Who dat?”
Alfredone – Touched a nerve, eh?! LOL
Some days you can talk and everything is fine.
I guess much of it depends on where you hang out
#65 I just learned you differed from the other five year olds in your kindergarten class. You were twelve…hence your misunderstanding my response…
This is why no one impersonated you…just deal with it.
Here’s the problem, and a solution:
There are a lot of people here who (for instance) use the username Patrick. That’s my real name, so I use Floyd as my nom de plume, and no one else has used that name. Some of the other Patricks don’t know about the others, and use their real names. Confusion abounds.
Change the rules: make the username field unique, so that if another Patrick tries to sign up, make sure he modifies his name to some other unused, unique name, say patrick97. Keep previously used names locked so no one can play sock puppet. End of problem.
[We could do that if everyone was a registered user, but very few are. - ed.]
#68, Floyd,
While a fine moniker, we can only hope you don’t start becoming pink, That would rise to impersonation.
The problem with your suggestion is that it would require registration. Not many visitors want to have to register to post.
#67, Alphie,
Another example of why you are ridiculed. You refuse to see how you injure your own cause.
Whatever happened to “turn and offer the other cheek”? I guess your Kindergarten class hasn’t reached that lesson yet.
If you boast about being impersonated, then don’t complain. If you are going to complain about being impersonated, then don’t boast. Doing both makes you a hypocrite.
#70 Humor is appropriate for the comments directed at me…
As for turning the other cheek…I certainly do that when the object of ridicule or insult is me or my God…
But when the object is to silence contrary opinion, to divert from the issues to a false image you create of me…then I take no prisoners…you will be toast…I’m not Alfred Won for nothing.
It is written:
16 “Behold, I have created the blacksmith Who blows the coals in the fire, Who brings forth an instrument for his work; And I have created the spoiler to destroy.
17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.
(Isa 54:16-1 NKJ)
Of course you never pondered Christ’s response to the hypocrites who opposed truth…there was no turning the of Cheek then.
I have pondered it, and learned the lesson well.
#68 I believe the Moderators have fixed the problem…reread his words.
Letting impersonation take place ruins discussion of issues, one could not know who is arguing what…no context possible…
After a while, people get to know your positions, your arguments, and they devise responses…all that is subverted when impersonators engage them in discussion.
#69–While I can see your reference point (which one’s Pink?), “Floyd” actually refers to Floyd Collins, a Kentucky cave explorer whose botched rescue attempt when he was stuck in a cave in the 1920s is considered the first media event. He died of course before they could get him out.
Anyone else think this thread (meta-thread?) is the most ridiculous thread ever to hit this number of posts?
For anyone who has attempted to impersonate another, just remember this.
If you can’t make your point by playing only your own side of the argument on its own merits A) you lose and B) you’re a troll.
Recommendation to the editors:
Whenever someone impersonates someone else, do not merely change to the correct name, also make a nice bold statement that said idiot has clearly lost the argument and utterly failed to make their point.
Oh, and then ban them. I agree that they need no second warning. I’m not talking about a case where two people may both be blogging under the same name. But, some of us have pretty unique names. If someone else uses them, they are quite clearly deliberately impersonating someone. Banning immediately is a good idea, IMNSHO.
#71 – Alfie, I certainly support you having imaginary friends. What type of medication are you on?
leave alfred alone!!!!!!!!!!!!
no really, maybe he’ll go away
#76 – lividd,
Are you planning to make a “Leave Alfred Alone” video?

#74 – Well said.
[If you don't let us know we can't do anything about it. - ed.]
I did and one of you guys let me know that you were aware of the fact it was taking place. No ill will on my end. I still read here I just don’t engage anymore because it is pointless for more reasons than people impersonating others. You guys still post some pretty funny stories and some interesting ones as well.
