I'm guessing Lucius was Ming/Roodeye, BB. Although I have been wrong before :)

He's the nicest person you could meet and talented. I think he is misunderstood on here

I am shocked at this outcome!

(Not really)

I don't think so, he brings it on himself.

But surely we should be able to debate without someone getting banned and we all know on here......a smattering of trouble and the thread goes on and on......we love conflict eh?

Did you meet him then BB?

He is the best, trust me, but sometimes hard to understand

Doesnt answer the question though

It's suddenly got very Crown Court.

I sentence you to a pie in the face. Take the defendants trousers down.

Being serious for a second I am sick and tired of this bullshit.
Multiple identities, wind up remarks and time wasting deliberately poor skits. This has lead to about a dozen BCGers leaving over the last year. It's also left the critique a hollow shadow of what it used to be.

The forum is a quieter, duller more suspicious place than when I first joined.

Having been trolled when I first posted here as a new writer it really shook my confidence.

The thing I don't get is the one or more multiple id'd posters have a highly distinctive signature. The style, obsessions and humour are utterly distinctive (or else why be a writer?) So why do people keep feeding whom ever they are? Are you hoping he'll get type 2 diabetese of the ego?

Because it feel likes you're shitting on your neighbours for the sake of a burglar f**king your houseplant.

And to our many named visitors. You're all welcome, but waht did I or anyone on this forum do to so offend you? Is that our lack of success makes you perhaps feel bad about yourself?

As an non-contributing reader of this forum, I can't hold back from saying I find no fault with Ming or Lucius. They might be the same guy but neither of them posted anything troll-like on this forum, just great sketches, great critiques and other helpful postings.

Sure, he told someone to go f**k his mother but a couple of days later someone called someone a motherf**king c**t and said 'I hope you get cancer' without attracting a single complaint.

And people repeating insults they've heard about him in real life from angry ex-lovers? If someone did that to me, I reckon I'd complain about it. Wouldn't you?

Come on, people. If we're going to judge someone, let's do it on hard evidence and leave the myth and the rumor and the paranoia out of it. If we don't, it's going to look a little like a witch hunt.

Don't you ever get bored?

Maybe things would improve if you stopped accusing every new member of being a troll, sootyj?

You know what I'm out of here.

Have fun.

These forums as far as I can see are supposed to be about and for comedy in all it's various forms.

I have only been a member for a short while and tried to join in where I can.

Most of what I see is 'in jokes' that no one out of the circle gets and terrible bitchin' between members.

Even I, in my short time have had some snidey remarks made to my posts but it doesn't matter to me.

But I have to say, it is getting less apealing here everyday.

Sorry to hear that Stephen. It's just the nature of forums I suppose.

Ming was banned. If he learned to respect the administrators decision he may have been invited back. But repeat offences against the rules with multiple accounts means he's not welcome here.

Stick with it. It can be cliquey but members who've been here a long time naturally have a shared history. Hang in there and you'll pretty soon carve your own niche.
