Hmmmm, maybe? maybe not? I'm just speculating...
Luna.. psychological profiling & personalities is a fav of mine too.

But comparing the two, if they are indeed the same, that would be most disturbing. They talk from two different ends of the spectrum.

The 'reasonings' you used were also revealed in your post in this thread: you were trying to discredit the moderation of iidb, in response to a long-running thread by cf defectors who were complaining about the moderation of cf.

No one has suggested that you were a dead rapper.

Your denials and excuses reek of desperation.

ahhh... SMILIN'S TO BLAME for this 'slang generated hate talkin monstrosity creation' termed 2PAC...lol

startin to make sense now...

since the 'shooting from the hip' by Gunny, Cheese, and a few other moderators have been the topic of discussion here.

and let's not forget his strategy of linkin this thread to the 'news' forum on CF.

Gunny... you're motives and tactics have been well known and discussed publicly (not even considerind this 2PAC character who everyone knew was a troll/sockpuppet)

Yes, it would be.

I don't think that in itself is all that unusual.

Exclamation

Let us not be speculating on psych profiles. And remember that Gysgt is a user of this forum and is entitled to the protection of our rules. Personal attacks must be avoided.

HI GLADIATRIX!!! WELCOME BACK!!!!
(our new headquarters is up and running,
the evil conspiracy lives on.... )

some facts about hacker techniques to add to your comments:


[QUOTE]Originally posted by mfaber
[B]1. Your IP address is not personally identifying to you. All anyone can find out from it is who your ISP (Internet Service Provider) is. Your ISP will not give out your personal info to just anyone who wants to know the "owner" of a particular IP.
Quote:

there are probe scripts which can grab your personal IP..
the most common one is the 'trace route probe'

Quote:
2. If you are on dial-up you usually have a dynamic IP address, meaning it's always changing. If you are on a high-speed connection, you probably have a static IP which stays the same all the time (so more than one kind of IP address) Special meaning of the IP address:
Random or Static IP's are based upon the capability of your ISP. If you can sign up for a random IP.. by all means DO!!!!


4. What you need the most to protect yourself on the web is an AV program, of course, and a firewall. If you don't have them, get both ASAP. If you click on LINK. This web page has links to free firewalls and free AV's.[quote]

Firewalls? bahhahahahahhahah (firewall filters). A firewall is simply just another server. There are scripts to filter them.

Quote:
5. Firewalls prevent others from entering your ports. There are normal port scans going on all the time, most are harmless, however your machine can be exploited by a trojan or hacker. A firewall will stop these (unless one is unfortunate enough to have very sophisticated hacker on one's case......but that's very unlikely.)

There are a NUMBER of probes/port scanners which can filter firewalls. Anyone (including my teenage daughter can do it...CRRRINNNNGGGGGG)
Firewalls won't stop hackers... just 'monkey scripters'. Checkout the professional version of blackice.

www.blackice.com

It's the best I've found... It gives you in depth details and threat level for any probe/scan/attack, plus the capability to backtrace to the responsible party.

I am sure that Gunny is very proud of his position as moderator.
(why? beats me??)

So even if he would jeopardize himself by posing as 2PAC... he cannot admit it without being banned from CF.

At least that is what, I think, would happen if Erwin got involved.

I am still hoping this is all wrong.

Gunny is a hard character... but he is a good solid Christian poster.

This is further disillusioning me.

(not about Christ but about Christians)

We've got to do better!!!!!

I have to say, blackice is *NOT* a product I'd recommend. In my other life, I hang out with abuse desk people, and blackice is a frequent source of "Something on your machine originated a connection from port 80 trying to hack into my machine" complaints. (In other words, "I visited your web page, why are you sending me packets?")

I'm honestly not sure whether I can talk about this much without bordering on personal attacks.

Gunny is a mystery to me. He is sometimes deeply insightful, and very compassionate. Other times, he may be inscrutable or hostile. For quite some time, he would respond to people in general apologetics with nothing but the CF mission statement (about bringing Christians together). He regularly quoted things from the Bible out of context, asserting that by so doing he was expressing no personal opinions, only God's word.

The latter is exceptionally disturbing, for the following reasons:

1. The selection itself says something, but it's very easy to misunderstand.
2. Because the selection itself says something, Gunny was (possibly unintetionally) representing his own opinions as God's.
3. The Bible says that the Bible won't make much sense to non-believers; quoting scripture at them is useless.
4. It came across as incredibly arrogant and hostile to new users.

I think he's probably a decent guy, but I really don't think he's got a calling for apologetics, and I think he has trouble understanding or accepting this.

The reports of spurious warnings (and there have been several; I am inexplicably the guy to whom people send concerns about CF moderation, even though I'm not a moderator or anything) suggest that his temper causes him problems.

I guess, it seems most likely to me that 2PAC *is* Gunny. The shared IP isn't proof, but it's suspicious. The knowledge of the ban is very compelling. Mostly, though, Gunny has the trait of coming up with scripts, acting according to them, and being shocked when people don't play their parts. This came up with his curious pseudo-harassment of newbies in general apologetics, and it fits the pattern of creating a troll account and expecting it to be anonymous.

Gunny's a nice guy, but he's not flexible, and this is exactly how he'd act if he were caught. My guess is, if he were innocent, he'd have expressed a lot more curiousity about the methods; he does tend to clam up when he's unready to deal with a problem, though.
