    Try swearing in the professional forums or something.

    Is a week ban worth the knowledge?
    So I'd need to swear in the professional forums and at the same time say "Before you ban me, I must know - is Bee a sock puppet?"

        Sounds about right. Though I have never seen a mod reveal is someone is a sockie or not. Only admin has access to ip addresses anyway. And that is not conclusive. Sometimes people at same site share ip addresses. In one case someone started a new gig, went into CUK and found themselves logged in as someone else!

        A tricky one.

        Maybe bribery will work? Try bunging admin a tenth of a DA and maybe that will work?

          The Candyman approach seems right. Still, this is too good a diversion to risk on what is likely not to be true, I mean Bee's tone and content seem too consistent to me - you'd have to be pretty bored to keep up that kind of charade.

                Then only time you will see a Mod identify a sockie as such is when they ban them.

                Cojak usually saves a few up and does them all at once when they finally get on her nerves one time too many.

                Admin will occasionally post to confirm that someone is *not* a sockie, but only under extenuating circumstances. Usually as a result of something posted in the professional forums.

                    Trust me, he is real.........I have seen proof, as I said earlier.
