an IRL friend saw me and another ilxor mention "forksclovetofu" in fbook comments once and was like "hey you know forksclovetofu? I know forksclovetofu!" it turned out he just recognized forks's name from lurking metafilter and that was it. then he asked me how I knew forks and I just said "a message board" "which one?" "it's called ILX"and the conversation ended there.
2 months later we're hanging out and he goes "I've gotta confess something, ive been lurking ILX and it feels like I'm stalking you. I know you're currently banned but I haven't figured out why."
same dude has complained to me every so often that he's tried to register and never gotten his confirmation emailed to him. I didn't have the heart to tell him the mods probably assumed from his ip that it was me attempting to register a sock :(

back when there was a table of top 50 most frequent posters i drew a graph, looked like it would have a really long tail. great story, thx.
― ledge, Thursday, 6 December 2012 16:41 (eleven years ago) link
yeah I think that makes sense and I bet the same is true w/ lurkers
― iatee, Thursday, 6 December 2012 16:43 (eleven years ago) link
ha unless other mods do otherwise, i would never yank a reg because i thought it was a sock, i am a firm believer in sock culture

BAN CIALIS
My irl bff confessed to me a couple months ago that he's a lurker (HI K-MAC!) even though I suspected it for a long time. Occasionally he would just know things that I knew I hadn't told him or he'd bring up something I'd just talked about on ILX and was too much of a coincidence. I can't remember the actual example but somehow I caught him one day and he had to finally admit it.
This morning he drove me to work and as I was getting out of the car he said, "Hey, are you getting a haircut tonight?" and I was like "Wait, what? How did you know that?" The look of shame on his face as he muttered "Uh, ILX" was pretty priceless.

Founded in 1989, the Paul Bellini Fan Club quickly outgrew the Kids in the Hall fan club.
for some reason this makes me so happy.
