Hi Liam, in that case, do you think you could remove me from these accounts as your friend. Keeping me listed on dead accounts is pointless and it in creases my downloading time on my space.

Omni Posted Feb 2, 2004
In light of :
Had this problem with Omni (would this be you Omni - U526798 ?), because he is going by his researcher number now (changed since yesterday?), and I don't know Omni well enough to realise immediately what is going on. For a bit I thought it was you know whom.
I say again, Mort was that for me (Omni) please reply with post number:

OK, not to long ago I started H2G2 (with the express reason looking for somewhere safe for my grand kids could go on the Internet and they’d have someone around to look out for them).
BBC run, a+
Not a dedicated chat site, a+
Useful and Educational, a++
A yoom/yoof arrives trying to con a position of authority on the sit. (Bounced, nice)
He comes back under several ID’s masquerading as
1. St johns ambulance member/s, giving himself and 2 other “self made members” as a source of medical advice, then comes in as another member of the St johns ambulance member and sacks them, and proclaims them as frauds to other members. (May be illegal don’t know)
2. A paramedic, offering an on site and email service for medical advice. Illegal defiantly (Bounced)
3. A police officer “Possible” illegal, most defiantly (Bounced).
4. Tries to set-up several help groups (Bounced).
I have to ask my self. Why did he get past plane .2
If it was not for the common sense and hard work of the of the members of this rather special place, what would have had to have happened to stop this.
As a testament to the way members, ACE, GA, and not forgetting “sock puppet” and the moderating team well. However, as a testament to the way the site is run, this saga is a very sorry statement for the BBC commitment to H2G2.
As for "Post four"@ Hi itern,interns place.
I have been seeing this kind of thing (attitude) all over H2G2 over the last 3-4 weeks, So I have closed down the grandkids pages and my normal page and opened Omni’s page, to see how this plays out.

Omni, I don't know how old your grandkids are, but personally I don't think h2g2 is the best site for kids - although use with supervision and guidance I guess would be ok.
I would add too that using your researcher number as your ID is bound to cause confusion. Two experienced researchers have already mistaken you for Liam. I find remembering 6 digit numbers hard and virtually never recognise someone from their U number. Can you not choose a name?
Jab, if you are still around, can you confirm or deny that you started the GOD/Liam trace/log page*?
Post Team - I am still not convinced that that* page is Liam's.
Diddy, I think it is fine to discuss a modded post as long as you don't break the House Rules in doing so.

Re: confirmation of U565055, I refer you to my previous answers...
<./>T375360&skip=35</.> and <./>T375360&skip=93</.>
So you all know, that's _not_ one of Lee/Liam's. However, the account is not wholly owned though.

It absolutely is kea. There are screen shots and text files to substantiate this fact...
For the record, here is a small portion of that:

The nickname has not been ** GOD for over 24 hrs.
STOP making stuff up!

Post Team Posted Feb 3, 2004
Quite so - as stated that was from a screenshot on 1st February
Was just confirming that the user under that name was originally called **GOD
Mind you, if it was a page specifically set up to track events it would possibly have been better to state that from the beginning and used a less provocative name - that name is heavily associated with the Guardian Angels. Just a thought...
