      Indeed it was, Barry's just got a smutty mind.

        Nope.

        Do you need to work at living up to your avatar and title or does it come naturally?

        I'm sure you realise that your posts amount to admitting that sockpuppetry is permitted on CUK despite it being stated repeatedly in the past that it isn't.

          I was accused of being both a Sockie and a German.

          Not sure which is worse?

              That's cause it's more exposed to the elements than most.

                  Maybe the mods should post a list of those sockpuppets whose continued existence is sanctioned by Admin/NAT/Cojak and the reasons why they're permitted.

                    Tried the reporting repeatedly including recently, it gets nowhere as there are a couple of drawers of puppets that appear to have official sanction to troll, I'm not referring to the ones with actual comedy value either.

                    Cojack repeatedly assured us that GittinsGal was genuine and was being picked on because she was a girl. Even banned some of us who called her out as a troll. Look how that turned out.

                      First they came for our sockpuppets, and we did not speak out, then they came for the brainfart posters and we did not speak out....................
