And now he might be let back in. So my question stands.

How can you be so sure that he's being dishonest? What do you stand to lose if
he's given a chance to really show what he wants to do on Lugnet?

Actually, he's been quite forthright in representing his past- as he sees it.
He might be in denial about certain aspects of it (for example, I highly doubt
he was as victorious as he claims in his flame wars- no one wins a flame war,
and anyone who thinks they did is self-delusional) but I don't think he's
actively lying, and I don't think anyone here can say they are fully
self-aware, nor should it be a qualification for entry. This isn't a Buddhist
temple of enlightenment, it's a place to talk about LEGO.
The balance, snipped and flushed. I'm not going to argue in circles with you.

I think that I misunderstood how you felt, and I reacted to that.

I'm sorry. <:( Although, I'm at work... which of us do you think has it
better? :D
