I think the thing that's encouraging people to still talk about it is if this new member is indeed Braveheart in disguise - how aggravating is that, knowing he thinks he can fool us all and not have to man up and apologise? He was horrible to a lot of people. Regardless of whether it's only on a forum or not, he should apologise to those he offended. I'm all for giving people a second chance but only if they act like they deserve it, and if it's been earned with a suitable apology. Not hiding behind a fake account with a lazy new identity. (I mean, really, if you're gonna do that, wait at least a week before you return. And try a bit harder with your new self

)
That being said, it'd be a bit sad if this poor Swift guy actually IS a new person and not Braveheart. Poor sod

I completely understand what you mean. I also believe 2nd chances should be given to people, but I don't really like when people don't admit what they've done and act like "So, let's move on, there's nothing to see here!". That's just not right.

It's just that, if I were a new member and saw all this 'chaos', I wouldn't know who to believe in and, with so many posts about the drama thing, I wouldn't really know how to start a conversation or just 'fit in'. It's like there's no other subject to discuss on the board...

Like I said, I'm not defending anyone, I just wonder what people may think of us when they see all this. I don't believe the impression we'd give away would be accurate as to who we actually are.

Since I really wasn't here when everything happened, I'm a bit..."out of this", so can't really build a very strong opinion on the events, therefore my "UHHH WUT WHY" behaviour. I just don't think it's fair for me to speak of something I didn't see happening like a 'know-it-all', if you know what I mean.

But really, I don't think anyone here would legitimately start accusing a new member of being somebody else unless there was a LOT of evidence... and you'd be surprised how much of it there has been. I don't really think anyone here would want to chase someone innocent off the forum.

Okay, this is basically what I meant and think. I just didn't know how to express myself
that well. Thanks.
