JSM's BEGGING FOR BAN THREAD #10

[klaasend]

Who is Tricia? Why is she banned? I am behind sorry. TIA JSM

Websleuths is her forum    Good night QM 

  She was banned from her own forum. Has to be a joke. Right?

I haven't a clue, it is just real weird.

So that would be like Red banning Red?   

Yes, it would be like banning Red. 

I noticed she hasn't posted anything new on her front page since Thanksgiving either.   Someone that is a member needs to see when Tricia last posted in the forum.

Night, sweet Monkeys. Going to watch my Kentucky Wildcats play.

Night Blumonkey. Sleep well. Hope they win. I love KY!!! Western KY, never been to the other side though I have heard it is beautiful.

Thanks,JSM. You must come to Bluegrass Country sometime. We love our roundball here.

Will do Blumonkey. I do love KY. Where I was it was humid as heck in the summertime. I thought I was in Houston it was so bad. But it is beautiful and wanted to move there at the time.

Anyways goodnight and see you in the morning.

JSM Back in 1996, when JonBenet Ramsey was murdered, Dan Trevino started a forum about it.  Those days were wild.  The Boulder News had a forum where you could sign in with a different name every time and have discussions with yourself and it was really crazy, but fun.  A group called Red Hot Chili Peppers (Not the rock band, but as I recall, something to do with molesting hamsters) hacked it from time to time. A person who called itself Jameson was there and told tales about how his wife was killed during a high speed chase on the autobahn.  Turned out Jameson was a woman who became friends with the Ramseys.  Somehow or other this person Jameson was sort of partnered with a woman from North George and they had a falling out so they split, one becoming Websleuths and one becoming Webbsleuths. The Boulder News forum folded after one too many complaints. Dan Trevino had a group of interesting people, there was a poster who called herself Mrs. Brady who would post urls to all the sites of the day that mentioned JonBenet.  She might still be posting on the "Secret Forum", I don't know.  I know that several of them are still posting.  Anyway, Dan Trevino eventually didn't have time to continue as webmaster, so he gave it to someone who continued it. Can't recall her name.  Then this person wanted to go to school to be a vet tech as I recall, but I might be wrong about the school,   so she had a sort of contest and the winner got it, but then they had a falling out and somehow Trisha ended up with it and Trisha also ended up with Websleuths.  I can't recall the name of the first forum that evolved from Dan Trevino's forum. But it's like a big "Secret." Tricia became very restrictive at Websleuths and for some reason AOL members couldn't join. I was a member before Trishia got it and I never joined it after Trisha got it, but I recognize a number of members from the old Dan Trevino site there.  Unless Tricia banned herself, it is some kind of joke or it's been hacked. 

If you ask me about Cybersleuths, that's an even longer story. A story about an abandoned forum which was confiscated by a poster and...well, it's for another time.

I've been around forums for a very long time.

The reason for the AOL thing is the IP.  You cannot ban an AOL users IP because they don't use a static IP.  Many AOL users will share the same IP. 

I think I registered at Cybersleuths too way back when but I don't remember if I ever posted

Good night JSM, Josef and Blumonkey and any other monkeys headed for the bunkey I might have missed.

Klaas--were you on Dan Trevino's forum?  I can't recall the name it evolved into but it's also Tricia's and it's sort of a secret forum.  There was a lot of fighting on Cybersleuths and I finally left it because of the fighting, but I don't know if it's still in existence. 
The last I heard it was for sale, but that was several years ago. A woman from Canada  took it over when the webmaster disappeared for several months.  Then he reappeared after she had taken it over and just gave it to her.

[Babybear]

Yes, now I recall that at Cybersleuths there was a really repulsive poster and the webmaster accused an innocent poster of being her.  It turned out that someone who claimed to be a Spanish Prince said that AOL doesn't use a static IP and several posters can appear to be the same one. The innocent poster was very irate at the webmaster.

I don't remember Dan Trevino's forum and I didn't follow the Ramsey case in forums.

Yep, something is up, I went to look at the front page and noticed that, love to know what happened.

Ok, others over there have been asking for awhile now.  Found two replies from two different mods that explain it was a dare.  Here's the latest reply today:

"It's a JOKE, people. Tricia owns this site and is not banned. She dared one of the mods to put "Banned" under her name and one of them did. That's all."

But ya know..... she hasn't posted for almost 2 weeks, that I can find.  Had it been a dare, wouldn't that have been lifted right afterward, with her coming back in and saying something like ... 'ha ha very funny, now you are banned'.. but that hasn't happened.  Sooooooooo I dunno what to think.
