"This was the only thread he'd really posted in". Then neither could be your pledge brother, because both had made a lot of posts in this discussion and other threads.

And do you think that anyone on here honestly believes that "bowsandtoes1000" wasn't just a new name for a previously banned poster?

Do you think it really matters? If so he clearly learned his lesson because nothing he posted was particularly offensive, much less over the top.

Apparently bowsandtoes wasn't available...it is a fairly common fraternity term after all, if the anti-hazing fanatics at your school haven't gotten to it yet.

99% of the people here have no clue what that term means, just fyi.

I know what it means, thanks. I just always find it suspicious when a poster with one name gets banned and a new poster with almost the exact same name signs up almost immediately.

Maybe he picked it because "SoggyBiscuit" was a little to extreme of a hazing name

Oh c'mon, no one wants think about that. =p And we'll be fine Kevin, I was going to be flippant here but I'm actually finding this a rather interesting personality study...the psych major side of me never turns off I guess.
