Alina?

I've been reading this forum for about six months now (just recently actually signed up), and lately there's been a few bags on this alina chick...not sure if this is very appropriate, but what's her story?

Personally I think we should let her back... the 944 board doesn't have much comic relief.

Quick bio:
She posted here with some ridiculous horsepower claims.
We made fun of her and she proceeded to use a lot of bad language that is not appropriate on a family form and thus got baned.
She then came back twice under other login names and got baned again.
Oh and she had really bad English which is not too unexpected on an international BBS, we have gladly accepted members to this board who have difficulty with English.

In retrospect it is possible that:
A. She was new to the Internet and had no idea of proper protocol.
B. She had no knowledge of automobiles and thus made outrageous claims.

In her last incarnation she seemed more civil and her claims about her car (be it real or imagined) were more believable, as if she was slowly coming around.

She also typed in caps a lot and did this:

ajajajajajajajaj

Has anyone seen that before or was that and Alina original?

don't forget she bad-mouthed everyone else's car and always talked about how much faster her's was (but the car kept changing) In her latest post she talks about "her car" as one model, but her signature has something else completely, so I don't think things have changed much

As long as I'm here, she'll never be allowed to stay. (You simply can't get away with telling the moderator to go f*&k himself and expect a warm welcome back.)

Yep.

It's more like up to six or seven different aliases. That's a violation of forum rules.

I don't buy either. Plan and simple: she's a troll.

That's nice - but she still can't stay.

Z-man,

I think you're using the wrong pronoun.


Try "s/he"

:-)

Perhaps this is where my sniper training will finally be put to use. Someone please eliminate this poster and put us out of our misery.
