So why isn't his new account banned also? I thought sock-puppet accounts were not allowed, especially for someone who was under a ban.
as a Moderator & the Moderator who banned him,
I reserve the Right to handle it as I wish.

..Probally the second people saw he was ralleying for a Banner, people didnt care as much....There are alot of people how are on here that you can tell are looking for attention really bad. Like the people that post the same thing in 5 different sections and the story varies in each posting...some say they found it years ago...some posts say Months ago..then they admit to lying for some insane reasons. Then they consitinaly bump their own post when interest is lost...Just speaking hypothetically of course..
And it's incredibly easy to pass judgement on others on the internet.
The Banner is, by my reckoning, a river of esteem that within, only the worthy swim.
There are plenty of Banner finds that have set off alarm bells in my head. I am sure there have been many people just like Conor looking for affirmation and posting bogus finds but they haven't been caught.
If I think a find is questionable I ignore it. In the long run it doesn't matter.
All drama aside, it's one "heck of a find"!
Peace
It certainly isn't worth losing any sleep over. I understand that you try to maintain standards for Banner finds and I appreciate that. But I firmly believe that people post fake finds that make it to the Banner periodically. In my opinion 1-2 percent of the finds that make the Banner are questionable. That doesn't reflect on the website or the moderators. You guys are trusting and you should be. It really only reflects on those who fake finds to gain approval.It matters to us......
