I have multiple personality disorder over on DV.
"We can't stop here. This is bat country."

LOL
Yeah, I think I've spotted one    
For thou art with me; thy cream and thy sugar they comfort me
Thou preparest a carafe before me in the presence of Juan Valdez
Thou anointest my day with pep; my mug runneth over
Surely richness and taste shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of coffee forever.

a couple of them came out of the woods last night on DV.

I stole your wisdom and am using it as my tag line. Thank you very much tenkani. It rings so very true.

I think I also stole someones picture but I don't have one of my own and it's the only one I like.

TA DA!

It's not totally true. You won't find them in Mensa.

I have no idea why you were banned from DV, or if it was even intentional.
The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

If you still want to return to DV, pls send me a message via DS and tell me your handler name. I'll look into it and get your IP Addresses ban.Apologies to those who may have been accidentally banned.-

This is several weeks back, it's not really lately ; and I am not aware of having spammed. Message via DS ? Do you mean a private message ? I am not registered, probably it doesn't work.

Furthermore, I wonder how people could be accidentally banned ?

If a range of IP addesses was banned and your IP happened to fall within that range the effect would be the same as if you had been deliberately banned.

That's obvious. I should have understood that.
But I thought of something (this is more for Lise, I suppose).
Most of the time I use the Tor network (http://tor.eff.org) for surfing. The Tor network consists of a large number of computer which relay the IP packets. I can't post either when using the Tor network, so it the IP numbers of the Tor network must have been banned as well for good measure, I suppose !
