Just a head’s up. Broken60 may be the same user as other users that have participated here before: Code:
Broken60: jackgaskill55@yahoo.com
jgaskill: jackgaskill915@yahoo.com
REBEL2: jackgaskill242@yahoo.com
Rebelman: gaskill1960@yahoo.com
I don’t think there’s much an issue with one person having multiple user accounts. People forget passwords, life happens. I think it’s only a real issue when people try to use multiple accounts at the same time. E.g.:
Broken60: Yeah, that’s a really good point you make REBEL2!
That sort of thing.
There’s a possibility that it could be a different person but I thought I’d bring it to people’s attention.
P.S. I randomly chanced on this.
Interesting. I had only done a cursory check when approved. Yes, people forget passwords, username, etc., but 4 or 5 times? Possible, but not as likely. Thanks for the heads up, I’ll keep an eye. I also not opposed to letting him know weknow and asking that he stick to one account. I approved the request to join, but add another user to the pile: Code:
Doubter: jackgaskill194@gmail.com
I haven’t seen any sock puppeteering. Must be super forgetful.
…and they do sock puppet in one of the comments they’re trying to get approved. Doubter wrote:Wow Broken60 I could have written all what you said about myself , we believe the same !!!!! Nice to know I am in good company .
There’s no overlap in the users, meaning two users active at the same time. They all fit the active user, go inactive, after several months spin up another user.
Given how many email addresses they’ve been through, maybe it’s a pattern of forgetfulness with them. Maybe they themselves can’t keep straight who they’ve signed up as before?
Thoughts?
If we let it slide, Doubter will probably disappear after a bit and then 6 months later there will be another jackgaskill account.
Of course I don’t know for sure, but I think it may be this guy: https://www.facebook.com/jack.gaskill.56 Saw a post in that feed from November 2014 where they talk about a second wave of computer issues and a jackgaskill[numbers]@yahoo.com address.
I’m giving benefit of the doubt. Tech issues mixed with some forgetfulness.
Thanks for the legwork here. Other than sock puppets it doesn’t generally appear advantageous to have multiple accounts here. The yahoo thing is interesting too – I know they can do temporary addresses (part of “premium” maybe?) which may incorporate the numbers added in. Otherwise the guys has multiple yahoo accounts as well. I can’t look at the facebook thing at work (blocked), but I’m also willing to give the benefit of the doubt as long as there’s no malicious behavior. And maybe we can try to remember the name in 6 months. I also don’t think it would hurt or be offensive if we emailed/pm’ed him a note that lets him know we noticed. Quote:Doubter, everything you say sounds familiar to many of us.
I chuckled at this. I love MM and I know what he meant, and I’ve said the same thing many times. But in the context of multiple accounts there might be a reason it sounds familiar!
😆 I had one that I was tempted to post. Something like, doubting members are often seen as broken by other members. They can even be labeled rebels against the gospel. I thought that was a little too passive aggressive to post though.

Probably so, but it would be hilarious to the few who get it.
Thanks for all of this. I think the comment would be hilarious, but I agree it probably would be inappropriate.
