In Response To: Thank you for your shameful plugging, Creation (oogaßooga (NotioMortus))

[load of crap deleted]

As can be seen further down in this thread, the REAL oogaßooga has an AOL account. His IP address, listed in the header of his message, backs this up. This imposter used the right email address, but wasn't able to spoof away his home.com address.

Anything's fakeable, if you want to work at it. This wasn't even a very good attempt.

We tend to frown on outright censorship (the community does a pretty good job of self-policing, when good information is available), so we're not taking this thread down... but be aware that the comments made above were NOT made by oogaßooga, and do NOT reflect the sentiments of NotioMortus.

Here's hoping things calm down again.
