Folks, Dimestore is not new to the Forum and I think he may have been banned already. To the point, there have been a few folks as of late pretending to be something they are not. I'm a mod on a naval aviator forum and we've had 3 in the last year. Dimestore went by Blackstar a few days ago and was on the forum pretending to be an F-16 pilot and lawyer. He was banned and is back pretending to be an F-4 pilot of years past. If you've never been part of the fraternity (military aviation), you can't pretend or fake the lingo, the experience, etc. You also haven't earned the right to be something you're not without paying the toll. He's lied twice now about who he is, probably lying about his Vette as well.

You can welcome him all you want but according to Grumpy, he can't respond now that it has determined that Dimestore is simply Blackstar back with a new cover story (but same Black 06 Corvette living in same town and working at same office using same computer). I gave them both benefit of doubt and exchanged PMs, but loks like Bunk22 did us all a favor dealing with someone who has an active fantasy life on this forum.

Grumpy's last message to Dimestore:


Dimestore
More to come.

Grumpy
wrong..

BTW , part of the user ageement you agreed to..

Banned Members: If you have been banned by Corvetteforum and attempt to register again using some means to get around the ban, such as using another email address, you agree to a 5000 dollar reinstatement fee.

who's next??

Personal attacks/hostility toward others

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Forum should be a place where we treat one another with civility so that it remains a fun and friendly place to hang around with other Corvette enthusiasts. Hostility to others is rude and inappropriate.


Personal attacks cannot be tolerated. Attack ideas, not fellow Forum members.

I hope you didnt take it the wrong way. I meant that since your are a military aviator that you know when some one is not.
