As things stand.....


Unless AO provides some evidence as to why Kevin Bonham should not be allowed to have hydra's then I am afraid I will have to suggest that he has done nothing wrong.

cheers,
Fg7

Yes AO, I think that I should be able to have as many hydra's as I please.

Greetings,



So Kevin, you admit to having three accounts on Ozchess, namely Kevin Bonham, lotlizard and The Arbiter. There is some debate amongst us about a fourth account called antisense who has been registered since the 11-05-2007. It is well known that this account shares the same IP address as some of your other accounts. It is also common knowledge that this account is virtually logged onto Ozchess 24/7. The Ozchess team has been observing and speculating about this accounts existence for some time now.

Today Alex informed me that he openly asked you whether this account was hydra. To which you allegedly replied that it was a 3rd person who shares a dwelling with you. Now, quite frankly, I don't believe your explanation, but to be fair and give you the chance to prove your telling the truth, I would like to hear your version of the "antisense" story on Ozchess.

Why don't you begin with telling us antisense's name. And fill us in on the story as to why antisense lurks on Ozchess. Better still why don't you just ask antisense to post it themselves. Should make for an entertaining debut post!

cheers Fg7

Actually I referred to sharing my net connection, not "a dwelling".

Should you supply me with a complete login history for antisense (with antisense's permission, of course!), I would very likely be able to find times when antisense was logged in when I had no capacity to access the internet, and had witnesses to the fact.

Congratulations on your first post antisense.

Now be brave, introduce yourself and tell us the story about how you ended up here.

Greetings,


Well I guess that is about all we will here from Antisense. My bet is that whoever Antisense is they are simply too afraid of speaking up when Kevin is around. Personally I don't blame them, Bonham can be a real bully boy when he wants to be.


cheers

...speaking of afraid, I notice you've suddenly decided to make your online status invisible, FG. Hiding from someone?

You are extremely observant antisense, bravo! I guess you have had a lot of practice. It is also true that it was a "sudden" change. I am not as you say "hiding" from anybody. In fact I was inspired by an observation made upon Chesschat mod William Gletsos when he was lurking around here. But alas I digress.....Let's talk about you.

It appears you are allowed to speak without Kevin's permission, so why don't you tell us about yourself? Are you a friend of Kevin's?

cheers Fg7

So firegoat7 you supposedly banned me and a number of Kevin Bonham's accounts last night claiming security reasons when it was abundantly clear that the only security violation happening at that time was being perpetrated by the account "TheOrifice" that was pretending to be a hydra of Kevin Bonham.

Now given Phil Donnelly (phild707) accidently outed himself here a little while back when he posted under "TheOrifice" then why hasnt "TheOrifice" account be banned for impersonating another poster.

As I said, no thanks.

Why don't you get back to me when you figure out exactly what "security" issue warranted my banning. Good luck inventing one.

Bill you are truly a comic genius. You are quite clearly the funniest clown I have ever met. You made me laugh so hard that I fell off my chair when I read your post. Thank you Bill


Viva Le Revolution!! Death to Sweeney!!

So all those words about "accountability" on chesschat were just wind now that your being the only mod online at the time of a supposedly-merely-illconsidered banning has exposed you to criticism?

How about you show some accountability and explain why you have become a hidden user?

On chesschat whenever I am online I show as online, virtually never reading the site as guest. And I have never been a hidden user there.

Oh, and Phil's a real klutz about this hydra thing, either that or deliberately hopeless at it. He outed himself tonight not once but twice!
