I see your warning of jackbooted Nazis (symbolized by a German patriotic song of the World Wars era), and raise it a French rebellion (symbolized by the first couple of lines of the Marseillaise).

To be literal: The jackboots: "Dear Fatherland, remain calm, dear Fatherland, remain calm, the Watch stands tall and true: the Watch on the Rhine, Stands stall and true the Watch, the Watch on the Rhine!"

The rebellious response: "Arise, you children of the Fatherland, the day of glory has arisen! Against us tyranny has raised its bloody flag!"

In other words, Nazis schmazis - more wine!

I am absolutely Vicomte13, the one and only XIIIeme Vicomte of an obscure place in Normandy, who was banned from FreeRepublic circa 2005 (?) for criticizing George H.W. Bush, who posted at LibertyPost until yesterday, when I gave my adieu, and who has posted here for some time also.

We could ask you the same question, SOSO. What are you afraid of? You've asked for your own ping list using Goldi's name so you can trash and slander the members here you hate, and in the same breath, you've accused long standing members here, and those who might come here from LP, of spewing "vitroil and gloating over the passing of LP with Goldi". jmho!

I don't care if people have had multiple IDs as long as they're honest about it. If they're playing games and hiding who they are, you know they're up to no good.

Calling the different names I used a sockpuppet is a stretch. I never posted simultaneously with two different account names. It is not like the name I pick for an online forum can not change like a SS card or my driver's ID.

It is not like these names I use for forums are copyrighted or in any way my real names.

I may change my name on forums. But I don't have multiple accounts on each forum playing games or pretending I am a group ganging up on someone or on a topic.

Only a little. I would call them retread accounts if you got banned, like at TOS, and came back under a new handle. Then there are sleepers or zombie accounts, extra IDs for making mischief. I see your point that you were actively posting (and not to disrupt) under each handle in succession. So retread is probably more accurate.

I'm not sure that being a retread is that much more dignified than a sockpuppet. These terms get used loosely.

Yes, retread is accurate - same person returning as a different account name and I really never tried to hide it.

Sockpuppet is like having a gaggle of fake names who you pretend are different people agreeing with your main current account --- which I have never done.

Also, having a bunch of handles at TOS just to go over and harass people like Howlin and OhioWFan so one could get banned over and over for laughs.

If you want to go back, I can tell you how. So could any number of people here, in private forum mail if you like.

Your problem is that your professional prose style would give you away. You write too well; it's pretty unmistakable. So you might get back there for a while but you'd be found out. And, unlike Goldi, Robinson tolerates no retreads.

This is true. Vic's style is pretty unique. And he's too cerebral for most of TOS. However for a poster to be hit with the charge of "RETREAD!!" (or troll) it would have to be assumed that Vic has made enemies of petty mitpickers there. Have you, Vic? If not, TC has his balloon tethered to Oz on standby to Kansas.

#58. To: TooConservative (#54) (Edited)

When FreeRepublic cut me off originally, I thought that it was ridiculous and unfair. I'd been posting there for years, and was a conservative Republican. The things I was angry about in H.W. Bush were legitimate. I was stunned when they did it, and found myself with nowhere to communicate in the way that I'd become accustomed. So I tried to get back aboard, including by trying a pseudonym, once. That was in 2005 or so.

Once I found LibertyPost, I started posting there. I missed the "wider audience" of FR for a bit, and I still thought they should lift the ban, as it was ridiculous.

So I knocked at the front door a few times, in my own name (Vicomte13). They never deigned to respond to anything.

With a little more time, I began to perceive that the thing that makes any chat site good is the quality of the posters. I have heard since I was about 8 years old how well I write, and while I never paid any attention to it when I was younger, as I've gotten older I realize that it is true: I write well, and I do so on a wide variety of topics because of the extremely broad education I have had, and the unique set of experiences. Having a strong memory helps also.

And so with further reflection I decided that it is people like me, our willingness to spend time posting our well-written and provactive thoughts for free in a wide chat room, that make a site good, and the absence of us that breaks a site.

There are a few news wires that print articles every day. It's easy to find the news. It's easy to find people commenting, one way, about the news. It's difficult to find people with whom to actually ENGAGE about the news, and to find those with whom one can engage INTELLIGENTLY, and at length, well, they're as rare as hen's teeth.

Bref: FR's banning of me and people like me was FR's loss. Now I have no interest whatever in going back, other than on my own terms, which are simple: open the door back up, unban me, and don't presume to give me any "warning" whatsoever. I was dead right about H.W. Bush. I was just smarter than the moderators and saw it two years before they did. Unban me and do not presume to give me any "warning" at all, consider yourselves lucky that I should deign to return and give my time and talent to a site that has fallen far from its former glory (BECAUSE it banned people like me), and let it go from there.

Those are the terms on which I would do FR the favor of returning, under my own name. Otherwise, that game's not worth the candle. LibertysFlame looks to be like a bigger and less cranky expression of LibertyPost, and with Private Mail too. So I think this place will be excellent. The conversations we will have here will make it so, and my excellent (if lengthy) writing will be a material part of that. This is not arrogance, it is realism.

I never really thought about that. Given some of the outrage that folks have expressed at me, the heat of the invective, just for stating my simple (if at times detailed) opinions, I suppose that there are some people whom I make batshit crazy just by opening my mouth.

I think these are mostly matters of style. France is America's oldest ally, but a lot of Americans are allergic to things French, and I do write with more than a little garlic.
