267. I dunno. If I'd been caught using a sock-puppet, I'd avoid discussions about famous DU sock puppets.

People were talking about sockies. I don't know why you think that particular incident shouldn't be laughed about as well. If you see that and the other one that you've been shown many times isn't any attack at all as attacks, then you have a very low and inconsistent bar when it comes to attacks. In the thread I linked to, polly wasn't even in the thread until someone implied she was a sock puppet and then a swarm emerged.

No, if you read what I said again, I said that those who go around fixating on the number of hidden posts someone has and going on about time outs do come across as stalky and harassing. In a thread where people are reminiscing over infamous DU sockpuppets of the past, someone coming along and mentioning another one isn't stalky and harassing at all...

Does my wife have to answer the door? [View all] diabeticman May 2015 OP

Are you renting or do you own your condo? DURHAM D May 2015 #1

We own the Condo. diabeticman May 2015 #4

Maybe you have tried this already but DURHAM D May 2015 #11

They have the excuse that there is a security door which leads to all 4 condos in this building and diabeticman May 2015 #12

He owns it....eom mrmpa May 2015 #5

No, she does not have to open the door. elleng May 2015 #2

He never annouced himself he just kept knocking. She knew it was the cops when she saw his uniform. diabeticman May 2015 #7

How did she see his uniform? You said you have no peep hole. KittyWampus May 2015 #108

Yeah, I figured she would at least ASK "who is it?" cwydro May 2015 #110

heh. It's a mystery. SammyWinstonJack May 2015 #192

Better yet, she should call the police on their non-emergency line. EL34x4 May 2015 #10

We own our condo. diabeticman May 2015 #8

why didn't you answer the question above about how she saw the uniform if she didn't open the door CreekDog May 2015 #213

Legally, you are right. But busting down the door is fun. Hoppy May 2015 #17

If it happens again, you should go to the cops and complain about being harassed by them. bettyellen May 2015 #9
