Keiva here. Someone is preventing me from posting under that name, and similarlly blocks any obvious variant I try.
The last Anu told me, I am allowed to post on this board.¹ But someone -- acting anonymously, sub rosa, without revealing his/her identity -- is setting the AWAD software to block me anyway , in a different way.² That person is thus trying to evade whatever responsibility (if any) that (s)he may have for that act of blocking me. It is clearly personal for when I take a new name and identify myself, some unknown person soon blocks that new name too.
In short, that person has hacked Anu's board and taken it over, to impose their own wishes regardless of Anu's. That is disrespect to Anu, I trust Anu will take vigorous steps to purge the person and the act.
For the only other possibility (not to be lightly believed) is that though it is Anu who blocks me (or has someone else do it for him), he uses anonymity to duck any responsibility for doing so.
================================================================================
¹ His PM: [title]Welcome back[/title] -- Happy words to you!
² I get this message -- not the same one as when Jackie set a ban -- when I try to post as "keiva":
----------------------
We cannot proceed.
We cannot complete your request. The reason reported was:
The host you are trying to send the input from is not a valid host.
This is not necessarily an error. If you feel this is an error then it could be something as simple as your browser not being set to accept cookies.
-----------------------
Note: the problem is not in my browser, for I can post under a newly created name like this one.

I never expected to have a good word to say about a hacker.
But if a hacker has been keeping Keiva from posting, long may
he flourish and continue to block Keiva.
Keiva, you will never be welcome to post on AWADtalk.
You were banned for starting a flamewar, and refusing to quit.
You got reinstated only by veiled threats of a lawsuit.
Nobody on the board wants to see you post ever again.

The ends justify the means, eh?
Sorry, fella, that's Anu's call.
Not yours, and not the hacker's.
And if Anu calls it that way, that's his responsibility.

'Hacking' is such a negative word. The word 'purifying' is far more suitable.

Wordsmith is extremely unlikely to welcome any messages from Keiva.
It is the height of insolence to gain an undeserved re-instatement
by veiled threats, and then trying to avoid paying for help by more
hints of troublemaking.
Oh, hacker, hack again and quickly.

and which ever sys-admin come up with this little fix, please, a beta version, so that keiva can't come back under any name! please god!

wwh: Oh, hacker, hack again and quickly.
So you are taking the position that the board is being hacked, contrary to Anu's judgment? and that you do not honor Anu's judgment?
of troy: guess maybe god has spoken...
Yes, I would agree that someone is playing god. That is not generally considered a compliment.

you complain that some one has act to ban you.. your real complaint is, you don't know who or how.. so you can't threaten or attempted to bully.. that really gets your goat doesn't? some one acting unilaterly, just like you do..
you posted "charges made" you post your "resolution" -- an attempt at blackmail... and you get on your high horse and complain.. you berate dr bill.. after you have threatened him...go away. you are not wanted..
you want your own board, go set it up.. it not that hard..
Hell, AOL you ISP has free tutorial on how to do it.. but there, you might not have a captive audience to bully, right?

of-troy, your arguments are not to the point. The question is whether anyone has the right to enforce their views (and to override Anu's) by hacking the board.
You are free to present your complaints about me to Anu. I have no doubt that you've done so. But those complaints are not to the point of whether you or anyone has a right to override Anu's views via a hack.
Is that not the height of insolence to Anu?
