Yes, it is another guest controversy thread.

Originally, before I became a member I still posted as Martin Gibson, so my posts said Guest, Martin Gibson. So I have been consistent all along and you know the post was from me. Or was it? My detractors took it upon themselves to post as me as Guest, Martin Gibson which this forum allows to happen. One of the main reasons for joining was to prevent this from happening, so there would be integrity in knowing that at least a post was truly from me, regardless of content, regardless who did or did not like what I had to say.

Now, I know there has been many threads on the topic of guests and I can truly understand why someone would maybe ask a music question or make a comment without actually joining and not wanting to be anything but a lurker and an occasional poster.

But to me, the worst characters that can be found on this forum are the regulars, who when they attack someone, have to hide behind the Guest curtain, so phony, so cowardly, so small in stature, that they can't attack you or criticize you in their real Mudcat identidy. No doubt, this post will draw a few out, but I want you to know that after a while, it becomes obvious to all who you probably are. Many here I believe have philosophical differences and I believe that the ones who can't come clean with their feelings and express them openly using their regular Mudcat identity are the true complete scumbags of this forum.

You know who you are. And for many it's pretty obvious, also. I just want to bring this to everyone's attention so that when you regular members can't find the balls to say something to someone without their mask on, you really are held in the lowest esteem. Lower than whale shit.
