Thank you for joining me here in the billiard room, I can only apologise for this enormous billiard table which is right in the way of everything.</p> <p>Now, when he was called in to examine this most foul - FOUL! - of cases, Hercule he thinks to himself "this is no common or wimbledon crime, no? It is slander of the first water." First water, then leave in a sunny area and see what comes up. Hercule wonders why Mister Yussle should be persecuted so; Hercule wonders why he is referring to himself in the third person. It is enough to make you il.</p> <p>Let me present the facts squarely in your front, Mesdames, Monsieurs et Evanses. </p> <p>No one suspected, or even thought about, Mr John Ffetch Cocksucker being Sharpe*unter until, UNTIL, M./Mmes./Evanses HE CALLED YUSSLE 'SALTIRE'.</p> <p>Now, as our host Mr Yussle rightly says, only Mr Sharpe*unter is obsessed with Saltire. </p> <p>But, and it's a BIG but, is it not, Mlle Evans? As our host points out, Mr John Ffetbchch Corkslanger had had had had no contact with Saltire! This 'Saltire' who himself, by practically his own admission, has commented only the once in all the time Mr Jjohn Ffelch Cordswainbadger has been a member!</p> <p>But this is not all, mes petites furs. I wish it was not was so, but it is what not was so is.</p> <p>You see, mes braves, this 'Cordswainbadger' has himself used the multiple names, or this there cannot be any doubt. Now, M. Sharpec*nter has himself the 'istory of the multiple names, is it not so? No? Oh. And the apoplecticalic rage, into the which he whips himself? Is she not also 'dans les salles de bains'?</p> <p>Yes, there can not be the doubt, the slightest, that the two gentlemen who we watched sharing a drink and dry hump in the bar that night, les Monsieurs Cockhunter and Sharpesucker are ONE AND THE SAME MAN! </p> <p>I know what you will say: "Get off my leg". And so I move on.</p> <p>And so, I cut to the cheese. It is clear, is it not, that Mr Target, Dexter, Red Tex, Not Now, Be Reasonable, Lars Torders, The Pope, Neal Doran, John O'Farrel, Biscuit O'Barrel, Lisbeth O'Carrol, Mary Evans, Team Biscuit, Admin, newsbiscuiteditorialteam, uuuuuUUUUUUUUUUNNHGHGhghhghgh, nnnmmmmnmmmnmmmnmmmnmmuuuuuurugrgrghhhhh, frrrr'tp frrrrrrr'tp frrrrrr'tp and Jesse Big ARE ONE AND THE SAME PERSON!</p> <p>You may think it does not matter. </p> <p>But my God, it matters. It matters like the devil, ladies and gentleevans. When our host Mister Yussle tells us he has spent every waking moment of the last year tracking down this fiend, what can we say?</p> <p>Just this, my friends. "Back up your little grey cells. But not now." </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41987#post-119958 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 11:47:57 +0000 God 119958@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I'm warning you.

It's just stupid. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41987#post-119938 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 10:42:37 +0000 CollieP 119938@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I agree with VCG, people with multiple usernames are pathetic. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41987#post-119937 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 10:40:03 +0000 Vertically Challenged Giant 119937@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I have no idea who Sharpehunter is, but does it really matter?</p> <p>If you post something that people like they will say so and give it stars. If it's good it will get used on the site, regardless of any petty, anonymous abuse from somebody with an axe to grind or whether it has been 1-starred by somebody with multiple usernames.</p> <p>I seemed to attract somebody who liked 1-starring my posts if they got into the top 10 a while back. That was the conclusion I reached anyway, it might just have been that they were shit and I was too arrogant to see it. The result was that I stopped paying attention to the ratings my subs had and just concentrated on any comments I'd had instead for feedback. I did moan about it a bit first, but then I got over it.</p> <p>I think you might be wrong about Mr Target too. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41987#post-119935 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 10:32:45 +0000 yussle 119935@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I didn’t suspect, or even think about, Mr John Ffetch Cocksucker being Sharpehunter until he called me Saltire. Only Sharpehunter is obsessed with Saltire but JFR had had no contact with Saltire, who’s only commented once while JFR’s been a member. However, Cocksucker’s been using multiple names to tag me and Sharpehunter has a history of multiple usernames, quite often having conversations with himself to boost his subs. There’s also the similarity in the apoplectic rage he whips himself into whenever he feels slighted. There’s no doubt Cocksucker is yet another reincarnation of Sharpehunter.</p> <p>Of course it isn’t just Sharpehunter who’s been leaving his arse wipe behind, Beau not so Jolly has been doing his share of shit smearing as well.</p> <p>Beau Jelly Brains thinks he’s got a system to wheedle out the tagger. Of course he hasn’t but there is a way. You can tell who’s tagged you even if there are several people logged in at the time. Names Sharpehunter’s used recently are Mr Target and Dexter. Used last week were: Red Tex, Not Now, Be Reasonable and Lars Torders, with another I’m not 100% on. Coldstream is another from a while ago.</p> <p>You might think it doesn’t matter and it doesn’t until it happens to you. Once he’s got his fix on you he clings to you like a baby alien on John Hurt’s face. I really do think he’s got a serious problem. Looking back at a bit of his history you can see him being as nice as pie to Rikkor as JFR but a total bastard as Dexter and Lars Torders. I also noticed that he’s gone back into my history tagging stuff from weeks ago.</p> <p>This guy seriously needs treatment, or a bullet. </p>
