Well, it seems the theft is taking another turn. A username thief has started a blog again using my Paltalk website username to smear me again. How strange that I am so important that I have to be lied about time and time again while these people continue to get away with what they are doing.
Their lives are so small that they have to pick on someone that they have never met and will probably never meet. I wonder, when I am gone, who their next victim will be? You? or will they go after each other? Time will tell.

A CORRECTION
In an an answer to a comment I had said that Melinda Eubank had created a fake myspace account in order to send herself a letter purportadly from Josh Duckett threatening her. I was partly incorrect. She instead HACKED her way into his account, due, apparently, to having his account information.
However, THERE WERE myspace hacks of a similar nature as I had mentioned in that comment. The fake myspace pages were attributed to a group of people where were banned from a number of forums. discussing the case. Why those who were the victims of these fake pages were chosen, I do not know.
What IS true is that a lot of personal information was put on those pages and a lot of hurt feelings resulted.
The same pattern that is going on now.
One of the oldest traditions of on line ethics is being violated and that is of the wanton stealing of a username for nothing more than cyberbullying.
The forum and blog community of the internet is going to hell in a handbasket and nobody seems to care.

The TRUE meaning of TM and it's benifits
"Sometiimes knowing the right answer is knowing the right question."
From Wikipedia:
An unregistered trade mark is a trademark which does not benefit from the protection afforded to trade marks through registration.
In the United States, registration, both federal or state, is not required to obtain rights in a trademark. An unregistered mark may still receive common law trademark rights. Those rights, for example, may extend to its area of influence—usually delineated by geography. As such, multiple parties may simultaneously use a mark throughout the country or even state. An unregistered mark may also be protected under the federal "Lanham Act" (15 USC § 1125) prohibition against commercial misrepresentation of source or origins of goods.

How:"I know my way around a ban."
Some of you may recall when this remark was made in my room and then made it's way into a viral recording on Youtube. At the time we all thought that she meant that she could sign in under a black name and come into the room that way. Hell we all knew that.
This recent discovery of the multiple usernames similar to the ones I use brings that little slip of the tongue to the forefront. Not only does someone "know their way around a ban" but they seem to "know their way around passwords" and thus "know how to create hoax pm's."
Now,I am not, for one minute accusing the person who made that statement. I am using that example as a reminder of how weak Paltalk security is and just how easy it is for someone to come into Paltalk for whatever purpose and fool readers into thinking that a username is real when it is, in fact NOT.
There has been a widespread use of impersonator usernames and rooms lately. The changes are subtle and require close examination to determine who is real and who is not. This harkens to the old days when my chat room was PRIVATE yet someone always seemed to know their way around that. I attributed it to someone being able to hack into Paltalk. Instead, it may have been as simple as someone giving out PRIVATE information entrusted to them.
A certain someone who wrote in a blog a long, long time ago "He thinks I am his best friend, but personally I can't stand him." It was this comment that got me looking until I found my answer.
