eta changed his to her.

Oh, come on, please point out when and where I have used the same tactic.

Go hunting....you have ignored several of my posts to you and/or not answered questions.  I'm sure you have done so to others.  Heck...there's even an example in this thread..golly!  I deciphered 'elepaio's post for you, and you try to turn that into me defending her logic in that post.  I already made it clear where I stood in regards to her post.

I'm stuck on the mainland after having emergency eye surgery. I'm currently blind in one eye and am not allowed to fly for several more weeks. This means I don't read every post on PW because I am limited to how much time I will can read things, and despite that, I will ignore obvious trolling. However, I have never asked someone to agree that a certain pizza place is the best and if that person disagreed I would then label them as posting gibberish and unreliable information. That's trolling from yet another pog sock puppet (probably the fifth or sixth one now, likely more that got shut down quickly). I'm sorry you don't see it that way, but deciphering 'elepaio's post is just supporting a troll. And he's admitted to trolling. Did you somehow miss that?

Although at this point if he responded to the open letter... etc with his favorite pizza place, it could tie the room together in a number of ways.

You have reached the conclusion that 'elepaio is one of the many sock puppets used by Pog.  You resent Pog et al from asking for exceptions to the rules.  As to 'elepaio being a reputable source of information, care to provide examples from Punaweb of 'elepaio not being a reputable source?

Since TomK is limited in his ability to respond due to recent eye surgery, I will add a little background.  ‘elepaio is a new username on Punaweb, but not a new poster.  Some of his many former names have been pog, airportparking, and RWR.  All of those have been banned due to personal attacks, often toward TomK, and posting other comments outside the rules of Punaweb.  I agree with TomK that it was often gibberish, and would also say nonsensical, not adding to the the conversation in any meaningful way, and occasionally somewhat offensive.

TomK has been a member of Punaweb for a very long time, has replied to pog etc in the past, and has never been banned from the forum.  Make of that what you will, but my read is that they do not play by the same rules or employ similar tactics.  We can argue minutia, but minutia is not what it takes for Rob to finally ban a poster. pog also displays an apparent inability to learn from his mistakes, which then gets him banned repeatedly.

Yes.  He could be entertaining, and was capable of posting in a non-confrontational manner.  
It was the Puna version of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde.

That was possible several pages ago, and had that happened I wouldn’t have posted anything on this page.
I’m also perfectly capable of deciding what I’d like to post, and when.  Thank you.
