That guy sure likes to RP...
Reminds me of a Lord of the Rings RP game gone real life. x_x.
He deservies a good warn and a nice suspend.
He did open his topic 2 times...
CSI isn't life you know... sorry IP's girlfriend. T_T

I'm trying to sound like I don't have a sense of humor. I admit, its one of the more creative stunts a spammer has pulled. But he was technically breaking rules by spamming in the first place and then reopening the topic after I locked it.
Oh well, as long as he's not really a threat I don't care.

I think its hilarious. If he made topics about it all over the place, I'd be concerned. For now, its very clever.

Well from what I have deduced he is not on a normal computer, due to the fact that his typing system always puts backslashes before apostrophes, even in quoted text.
Other then that, I had a feeling he was Mune'R0x for a short while, but then I thought better of my assumption, and gave Mune'R0x far too much credit.
No he must be someone more, how shall I say...
Professional.

His typing system... he's doing it intentionally.
It's a way to escape ' characters to be used in databases...
Because if you used a real apostrophes, it would crash the query...
So they think it's slick.
(And if you ever see a site doing it unintentionally (like all apostrophes are escaped, everywhere)... they are noobs.)

Are you sure it's intentional?
I've had my posts at a forum have that problem with apostrophes before, yet it only happened to a couple of other people.

Shoutbox v5 used to do it.
It might be because he's on an early IE browser, I remember a long time ago having problems with similar things.
