    Why would we have been? If the mods had known CG normally posted only in here, they'd have known who he was...
    Wouldn't take a rocket scientist to figure out where he posted most ;)
    Actually, given the usernames used by most of the posters on boards, it would take a team of rocket scientists. Or maybe a smaller team of psychologists who specialised in primate behaviour and linguistics...

    I'm moving over your side of the country Sparks, could get a handy job as a psychologist me... Not talking about just any poster though. Only a fella with

    "I am an Irish Gun owner and I VOTE!!

    Eight out of the ten voices in my head told me to stay at home today and clean my guns"

    that as his sig :D Oh and Shooting, Hunting and Survivalism in his interests section :D

    Slight hints he may peruse the shooting section, but don't quote me on that lol.

    As for why ye should be consulted, I actually take it back, I forgot where I was. common sense don't apply!

I've seen this come up a couple of times now that admin etc. don't know CG (seems a cop out - I'm not arguing the point or making that comment personal), but in a gun related thread perused by a Gunner... Wouldn't take a rocket scientist to figure out where he posted most ;)

    No, some mod spotted that he threated the boards legally and its an instant ban. The fact that users hang out in specfic sections has no bearing on any bans. Iv never got anyone site banned but if I did I wouldbe asking where they normally post or the like.

    Yeah, but by that logic, I ought to hang out in the Amateur Radio forum, Rusty Knight should be in either Medieval Re-enactment or in Chess, Traumadoc ought to be in the Medical forums, you ought to be in Flute, and I don't want to know where ChopperDog would end up...
