I loved NT4. See previous threads for evidence of my Win2K hatred :-)

For your punishment, you must go back to NT4 and NT4 roaming profiles for 30 
days!

While that is certainly true, he no longer has a point about remaining 
anonymous, and his continued "asshattery" compounded the situation.

Sometimes when the prey runs the predator gives chase.  Note, I was the first 
one to be vocal about his objection to James Rankin's signature.  He voiced an 
objection, I voiced an opinion that I wasn't bothered by the signature, and 
thought it interesting that someone who couldn't be bothered to put his real 
name as a display name had rights to impose his desires on the community.  I 
know several who have interesting usern...@gmail.com<mailto:usern...@gmail.com> 
addresses, but do put their real name, or what I think is their real name out 
there.  Ben Scott, for example is mailvortex.  For all I know mailvortex is 
someone else, but he's generally a responsible member of the community. (Sorry 
Ben!)

I was pretty well willing to let him lie in his own hypocrisy. I haven't had 
any involvement in any of the items he's reported to the list.  It appears that 
he has angered the "masters" of the list, though.

For those that don't recall...  Back in 2000-2001, there was a tool that chose 
to degrade women on the list for what reason I don't recall...  Said tool was 
posting from his work account which made his comments all the more 
interesting...  Said tool, was "responsible for exchange and all things 
security" at Labor Ready.  Tool was asked to return to the shed, refrain from 
acting like a douche waffle in a public forum and apologize publicly.

All the while, some "information gathering" was being performed.  Captain Tool 
of all Douche Waffles was asked one last time to apologize, otherwise his 
employer would be informed at the highest levels of his behavior.  For some 
reason he thought he was untouchable...  Needless to say, Captain Tool of all 
Douche Waffles circa 2000-2001 remained combative and unwilling to show 
remorse...  It was a interesting phone call from the CIO of Labor Ready.  He 
was truly interested in how someone could know so much about the internal 
network of Labor Ready... It's been said, that he was very happy that their 
company received a "security audit/penetration test" on the house at the time...

We'll just say that Captain Tool of all Douche Waffles was never heard from 
again and the breached levy's were rebuilt and better reinforced to reduce the 
attack surface...

A $44k per year company with one employee (actually 2 if you really study the 
LinkedIN profile) most certainly isn't worth that kind of effort...  Well, not 
to me anyway...

I think your moniker is well-deserved - "masters" of the list is very cynical. 
I don't see it that way. And if anyone from this list saw fit to speak to my 
employer or attack me personally via telephone or snail mail, I'd see fit to go 
over to knock on their door and have it out with them. I come from a pretty 
grassroots place so if someone's out of order we tend to see nothing wrong with 
getting down on the cobbles, if necessary, and sorting it out. Each to their 
own. I don't think anyone here would do that, though. Maybe I'm "naive geek", 
but I'm not worrying about it.

IMHO, YMMV, usual disclaimers.

Signature will soon be gone.

It's pretty easy to ignore a signature, but to have to ignore it hundreds or

make any sense to me.  But....whatever.

You know I've considered using my real name on here several times.  However, 
after seeing how a lot of the "masters" of this list treat the readers of the 
list, I'll never do it.  The "masters" find enjoyment in berating and 
personally attacking readers of the list.  I wouldn't put it past some or the 
"masters" to actually look somebody up and either A) call a list member's 
employer to complain, or B) personally attack (verbally) in real life over the 
phone, via snail mail, etc.

This list is still useful but there is a lot of unprofessionalism that goes on 
that has nothing to do with my 'cynicalgeek' email address not using my real 
name.

It's pretty easy to ignore a signature.  It's also funny, so I tend to give it 
a pass.  I've seen worse signatures with huge pictures, those are pretty 
objectionable.  The list members have come down hard on people with huge 
graphics and whatnot in their signature.  Is Mr Rankin's long?  Yeah, but it's 
text and it doesn't stand out and cry for my attention, either.

Turning this on its head.  If you expect the courtesy of Mr. Rankin trimming 
his signature,  why is it unreasonable for someone to ask you to use your real 
name?  Or at least use an alias that appears legitimate.

Community is built when people "know" who their peers are.

should have said that list owners should gently ask users not to use signatures 
that are incredibly long and useless.

#3 I'm trying to make constructive suggestions that would help the community of 
this list...solutions that would cost members of the list NOTHING and improve 
the service of the list.
