Complaining About Complaining is definitely a no-no. Gonna slap those down. As for adding fanfic recs in other people's names... I have no idea what that is about or what it implies. Care to elaborate?

For the fanfic recs, I meant that both users added their recomendations as "Recommended by: Slick Nick Shady" in stead of their own handle. If those were different handles for the same user, I'd still understand but the edits were made from widely different I Ps.

Everything can be found on the Internet... except common sense.

I don't know if that's a problem or not; maybe ask about it on the fora?

Surely, and I mean surely, those were done by Slick Nick Shady while he was simply using someone else's computer who happened to be known tropers themselves or somesuch.

Funny that he'd be using two different people's computers with completely different I Ps and neither of them remembered to log off so he could log in on his own account.

And EK, please stop using this as a substitute for posting in the forums.
