People have actually done it for both of those reasons (and more).
That is the saddest thing I've ever heard.
It's very sad. I've seen MANY people act on these boards as a ghost. Most do it because they have been suspended for rules violations, and they come back under another username and do one of two things:
A) Talk football because they miss doing so.
B) Be an ass because they feel offended due to the suspension even though it was THEM THEIRSELVES that violated the simple rules of the forum.
I had one guy on the old board that was suspended and kept coming back under different names. I finally sent an e-mail to his employer, (A MAJOR corporation) as he was utilizing their time and their computers and their servers to do his ghosting on. He wasn't a happy camper, but guess what???? Don't break the rules and things like that won't happen!
I got tired of dicking around with him, and he was creating a disturbance on the message board.
Case in point here---How many times have you previously been warned or suspended Molly? Don't violate the rules and you won't have a problem. Then you won't have to start a thread here whining about what happened to you when you violated the rules on a different board. Pretty simple, eh?? 
It's not rocket science.

Do as I say not as I do ? Just messin around as I actually like the rule about no profanity. I swear alot during my working hours and it is nice to go to a place where I don't do that . Swearing occurs so much in my workplace that it goes unnoticed by just about everyone, not that that is a good thing because it most certainly isn't.

Whining? No. I was just a little bit annoyed with the fact that I got suspended for saying something to a Steeler fan that wasn't profanity laced. That's all. Now that it's over I think it's pretty funny actually.Calling somebody a genius is a no-no. I get it.

There's only one of three possible scenarios Shep. Pretty simple really................. a. One or more people Ref on both boards. b. It's a poster here who Refs there. c. Refs from both boards truely do compare notes in their spare time discussing posters. (which I would think to be pretty sad) See,I don't care. The less I know about who Refs where and what goes on "behind the scenes" the better I like it. Because I heard way to much BS in the past about all the drama. And I could really care less about all of that. However,figuring out a lot of things out at face value isn't all that complicated. Like I told him,I'd just let it roll off my back. I know enough about how things work in that department. More than I'd care to actually.

That's kind of the way things are conducted sometimes. I've been in Ref forums before.

Has there been anybody out there who has experienced the same thing as I did? Was this a rediculous suspension or not? I'd like to hear from you.
Girl I feel you pain... I am new here and someone was dissing the Browns, a kid that posts on here, and ME...so I came back by calling her names too...not swearing at her...and I got banned for a week. I did not know we couldn't call people names...we just try to defend ourselves, that's what my mom and dad always told me...and I do agree with you, it seems to me a lot of girls, especially non Browns fans, get away with a lot more, I hope they banned that other person too, she was the culprit!...well I'm a girl and a Browns fan just like you...we rock! Just keep your head up... I've learned now to just ignore those other fans and stay away from getting in trouble... I know it's hard, I'm a red-headed Italian (so I have a temper), and it's hard when people pick on you our things you like or support...I would just be careful and try to maybe reword what you say!

Trying to call out a certain person without using their name? The reason they use ref is to keep their anonimity. You trying to connect the dots for Brownie is just as lame what you are suggesting about the refs. You sure have bitched a lot in the past year about this kind of crap. You can whine all you want, you are not breaking the rules. You know who's who, just as you always have. Expecting things to change is going to fall on deaf ears. Refs are human, and prone to not be consistant all the time. You have railed in the past for at least one person who was a ref and was banned for breaking the rules. He was a former ref and should not only have known better, he should have understood the position he put other refs in when he outted them.
Other former refs have also broken rules. I also know that one was suspended for it.
I think I remember you mentioning how there are cliques on this board. You are right, there are cliques. It is inevitiable when people meet on here that they form some personal relationships with others. Just because that happens doesn't mean certain members are given a free reign. There may not be public admonishments but that doesn't mean they haven't been warned or suspended. Once again you like to paint everything with a broad brush, something you tell others they shouldn't do.

I think you should ask yourself what your intention was when you called the person 'genius'. Be honest, you know you can't come out and call him a dummy, so you chose to call him 'genius' which everyone knows is just another way to call somebody stupid or dumb. Right?

Why do you think anyone cares what you think? You disappear, leaving the rest of us high and dry, and just pop in to make a smartass comment. You censored, censored, censored sensored, no good for nothing censored and one more thing you censored. Good to hear from you!

Why don't you get together with Marilyn Manson and Alice Cooper for a girls night out. . Maybe you can hook up with Lynyrd Skynyrd and Jethro Tull....I heard they're two great guys.

No, No, No he wants to party with Blackfoot. Those guys are 110 percent down to earth, and it's just like sitting around with old friends having a good time. (Speaking from experience on this one) 
BTW I am Ref-007 on both boards. My mission is so secret that the other Ref's don't even know about me 
I AM ALWAYS RIGHT... except when I am wrong.
