However, the only text you cannot put there is "banned" which is prevented by the forum software because its reserved for banned users. That way no one can fake their ban status as being banned.
C++ programmers will dismiss you as a cretinous simpleton for your inability to keep track of pointers chained 6 levels deep and Java programmers will pillory you for buying into the evils of Microsoft. Meanwhile C# programmers will get paid just a little bit more than you for writing exactly the same code and VB6 programmers will continue to whitter on about "footprints". - FunkyDexter

This was him days earlier - happy and healthier days, mind you. Plotting with a VB6 supporter for a hostile takeover of Microsoft. They were planning on using money siphoned from all the Developer.com sites. Something to do with the rounding of pennies in banner ads.
Brad uncovered the plot - he's a hero!

I met that guy a few years ago, or at least somebody who looked and acted like him. I was biking on a greenbelt trail when I met this character shuffling along with both arms wrapped around the biggest insulated mug I have ever seen. I think that mug might have held a gallon or more, which made the handle kind of silly and necessary at the same time. I said hello, and he just kind of hunched his shoulders a bit, wrapped his arms tighter around the sippy mug, and shuffled off a bit faster. It was the funniest thing I saw that day, even though I had already seen a junior vampire on that ride, which was otherwise one of the freakiest sights of the month.
[talking on the phone] And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were married, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire...

I suppose they err on the side of safety though.
If more than one user logged in from the same machine I wouldn't think they would not want to ban all of them because of one rotten apple.

I think that is only used in extreme (snake man) cases.
Still, if he does come back, somebody should ask him what his reasoning was for that user name. It's kind of like waving a red flag. It's not as bad as making a user name like VirusWr1t3r, or some such, but it's close. Anybody with a name like that isn't here for the long haul, and there is almost zero chance that they have innocent intentions.

What's the meaning behind the name? I though it was a legit name.
