Yet he's been here for a while. Did he go by a different name? And why is he so pissy all the time?basically he's a troll from italy that got under jomes skin so bad he banned the whole ip range of his country. you might remember him as "messi19"

Well, several years ago, Myrealname (aka Elano/Karma To Burn, etc.) turned Dubcc (then Igangsta.com) into pandemonium with feuds, spamming, attacking random members, etc.Especially his conflicts with fellow Italian Antonio set the boards on fire, subsequently crashing most threads including a reply from either one, in several sections.Thus, Seer banned the both of them several times, resulting in Myrealname creating a whole army of aliases/accounts, flooding several forums with dozens of revenge-threads on Antonio & Seer. (This was before the "nuke all threads by this user" option, making the clean-up job more difficult)Seer then created a IP-ban so strong, that it kept most of Italy out of Dubcc, but Myrealname somehow evaded it, by anonymizer, dynamic IP, or proxy, I don't know..Which again led to Seer altering the actual forum-software "Simple Machines Forums", in order to keep Myrealname out.Even the EULA or the document you must agree with before signing up to Igangsta/Dubcc was edited to say something like "You confirm that you are not that bitch-ass Myrealname" or something along those lines.That's how I remember it anyways, maybe I forgot or mixed up some details.
