Do people on this site seem touchier about sockpuppetry than most?

On most sites, the users take sockpuppetry in stride.  On this site, most users seem to get totally bent out of shape about it and go on posting longwinded essays about it.  

Why is that?

johnmusacha

I thought about addressing your argument in my OP but decided not to, as less is more.

But since you brought it up, I should say I'm strictly talking about the forums. People seem really paranoid and accusatory of sockpuppetry in the forums

I am not talking about anything else.

johnmusacha

meh

Jimmykay

maybe that is because of people like you, john.

johnmusacha

What do you mean?  Would you care to explain?  Thanks.

You've been here for two months and haven't played a single game of chess here. What would you know about a year or two ago, you sockpuppet spamster apologist?

johnmusacha

Well if that explains it . . . a "sockpuppet" is anyone saying something that you disagree with.

That's some primo sleuthing, Captain Obvious brah.

It's not my fault nobody likes you on this site.

People who make sockpuppet accounts persuade distrust in the Internet communities they're apart of. Nothing good about that as far as I can tell.

johnmusacha

Yes.  What I'm saying is the level of distrust on this forum is off the charts.  Or, was off the charts before Erik shook up the admins and forum rules.

trysts

You were apart of the reason for distrust in this community, johnmusascha. You made many sockpuppet accounts. It is like being a cheater at a chess site, what you did with your sockpuppets to the community.

As I am sure most people knew by now, I am John Musacha from Miami, Florida. I have been a on-and-off pest on this site for some time.

I will be also closing any and all various alternate accounts I’ve created over the last month

See, there you go again.  If I wanted to say something to you, I'd say it to your face, scumbag.

johnmusacha

That was months ago, before I was reinstated here.  Is that too hard for you to figure out, scumbag?
