Some second accounts are for stock manipulation. You must know that. Some are for purposes of harassment. You must know that. Some are for starting anew after a poster has disgraced him or herself. You must know that. Some are because it strikes a person as a fun thing to do. You must know that.

I used the word "nefarious" to mean there is a victim, as in for touting or bashing stocks in which the poster is invested via his or her first accn't, or for harassment or other unpleasantness.

Poet neither harassed anyone or touted stocks (cooking was the main topic). You may think stock touting, harassing, and posting innocuously, with no victim, because it seems briefly like a fun idea when free new accounts are offered (not to you, not to me, but to quite a few people), is all the same. I think they all deserve sanctions, but only two of them deserve sanctimoniousness.

You seem not to have read the post to which you replied. Here are some points you failed to address, or even to notice I made:

Once it was brought to Jeff's attention, he had to sanction her in some way...

...the context creates significant irony.

What do you think of this post by CH, who, as you must know, has repeatedly made clear his intention of making Poet's life uncomfortable enough so that she will be forced to give him what he wants.
