A FAKE IS A FAKE IS A FAKE

I know that this is all a subtle attempt at humor, but it is also a very dishonest attempt at humor. The end result will be that No_Ax will do exactly what he has done in the past. He will run away and reappear with a new moniker and what do any of us gain from that. It would be better for No_Ax to be allowed to be No_Ax, in fact it would be better if No_Ax just posted under his real name like he used to do before being badgered mercilessly with cheap shot inuendoed knockoffs.

One of the great things about the free software community is that there are people in its midst who still know how to have fun with childlike innocence. But one of the worst things about the free software community is that there are those hanging around its finges that don't know the difference between fun and vandalism. They are childish too, but in a different and far less attractive way.

I think that this kind of thing represents the latter far more closely than the former, so hopefully somebody will get a hint. You can poke fun and still be man enough (even if you happen to be a woman, although I can't conceive of a woman this dumb, this is more of a male thing) to use your real name and not hide behind anonymity.
