As per usual, your ramblings suggest you've missed the point entirely... but I don't think so this time.
None of us outside of the Mini Mania offices needs to know anybodys IP address - something that we freely give them every time we look at their site. Nothing needs to be put in the public domain except for the name of the offender.
None of us 'knows' that you're Asian, you've never put a photograph of yourself or your car here.
The original Tony posted pics of his car, subsequent imposters don't.
So, pretend Tony, Robster, Velocity, Specialist, et-al, you know how you can stop this - prove you own the pink monster.
Post a photo of you stood next to it holding a copy of a current magazine or newspaper with the cover and your face showing.
Don't go down the whiny route of "I can't show my face" bollocks either - put up or shut up.

You know, i am an asian, and a good person, i don't intend to harm anybody here. if you see me in person, i look like a 4 foot jap with brown skin and a pretty buff'd body, and if i start to speak, you'll struggle to understand my horrible accent., I'm no scammer, i'm no troll, i'm no masochist,i'm one of the few who can do fractions,i don't care about metrics, i'm not a fly by night business man who sells minis either,I'm no transgender( i wish i am), definitely not from San Francisco. i'm just a simple rice farmer from Asia who wants to enjoy my lifelong passion, the Classic mini.
Now,put down your pitch forks and let's drive our minis on Friday Aug 26th...it's "Drive your mini Day." Let's all celebrate our minis!!!!

Many moons ago, long before Jemal's time, I was sat next to one of the unofficial moderators (i.e. someone with admin rights and access to all sorts of cool stuff) who was logged on and was kind enough to look something up for me. Even a quick 5-min glance was an eye-opener.
As with generic forum software (this is custom written), every time we post the IP address is logged.
When the last iteration of the troll screwed up and forgot to change their login before posting a sensible comment in a sensible thread (actually mocking the troll while doing so ), they effectively outed themselves as a regular and not the original Tony.
I don't doubt that Robster was real, but I have my doubts about all the others.
Following this I effectively called Jemal out on it (as he is the de-facto go-to guy) and suggested he might match IPs to see who it is that has been destroying a 20+ year old community. It didn't happen and all of the threads including the innocent one with the 'evidence' got wiped.
Bill Cox spent over a decade in the wilderness, with every new account wiped within hours of its creation. Even when he twigged that creating an account over a weekend gave him a few more hours use, they got wiped.
Makes me wonder if the days of this online family - which has created many really good friends (and at least one married couple) in the real world - are numbered, and the repeated appearance (with implied approval) of the troll will be the excuse to close it down.
Sad if that turns out to be the case.

I openly admit that I talk sh!t about this website. It's run like a freaking joke. I have also made it known that I think Jemal is actively culpable for the rapid plummet of this forum and I can't believe the owners of this website allow this to happen. It's shameful and a poor reflection on all that is Mini Mania. But alas, this nonsense drives up web traffic and the crawlers of the major search engines literally eat it up and spit it out as top results. Which is beneficial to the other half of this website's strategy, e.g. selling parts. Why would you care what the free side of your website looks like when the part that pays for your vacations nets a healthy boost? I've been temporarily banned before for sharing this opinion because it's unpopular. Another shining example of the pinpoint subjective bullsh!t "moderating" that we get to enjoy. Why does my opinion get me banned when pictures of genitalia, dildos, other disgusting things, and blatantly (and in my opinion intentional) "advices" not earn the same punishment? Well... it certainly makes my hypothesis of revenue look more plausible.
Unfortunately, I'm left with a bit of a quagmire (giggity) since there is a lot of tribal knowledge here and a lot of people come here as their first stop for advice. So I stick around to help where I can and learn what I can. But I think it's telling when someone like CupCake leaves. This forum has lost a lot of knowledge (and some opinion) with him. We had our differences, but I respect the man's wisdom.
I think he was wise to leave as well. I was a lurker 8 years ago. I was an active member for many years, and I'm back to lurking. I'll probably leave soon as well. Assuming this opinion of mine doesn't get me banned.... again.

If this is truly a Democratic forum, then lets have a Vote on whether this Clown should be banned permanently. I'd rather have Cup Cake on here than this abomination. Jim

With all honesty, i have NEVER said anything bad against our host MM. if there's anything i said bad about the MM, tell me then i will delete my account.... SO let me ask you guys, how many of you goes to other forum and say bad things about the MM? and you have the nerve to still post here?? i'm like really?? this is like daylight robbery so to speak. some of you do frequent the other forum and constantly lambast MM and even wish MM to go out of business. gosh that's is too low!! You know who you are.. And the owner of that forum even put more wood on the fire, he feeds these migrants (members who migrated from MM to that forum) all sorts of informations to make them more angry. THEN he has the nerve to post here... my goodness!!.
And to add, The Police Officer of the house (Sir Minerva) has spoken, he said that it's best to just ignore me, you guys need to follow, it's no less than the authority who's speaking to you now.,,, ignore me or get a ticket !!!
I always give HUNTER2 as a good example, at one time i called him a true gentleman, in my 2 years stay here, Mr. Hunter did not say anything bad against my posts, not once. He believes that each person has the right to air their opinion, good or bad.

I am as guilty of others for actually replying to his drivel, perhaps we should do as suggested and "send him to coventry" (I have not used that expression since I was a kid!) ignore him except to simply point out when his "Advise" is wrong or dangerous, this could be done without name calling or any interaction with him. Maybe he'll just fade away?.....................................

He'd had enough, it's true he deleted his account, he was not banned.
He expressed sadness knowing the good friends he'd made over the years he will no longer see or hear about on a daily basis. He hopes many will stay in contact.
Another good one lost.
Hope someone is proud and happy with themselves.

I'm not surprised much any more. By anything.
I'm surprised.
And saddened.
