Also, comments from IndigoGenius like: "Father of the Fifth World movement, thinks Jimbo is brain dead and deserves the death penalty; not a job editing (I mean deleting) the ideas that will change and save our world! God made a mistake when he made Jimbo!!" are not at all acceptable and should be deleted on sight and the user who wrote them blocked from editing. JRR's mention and link to [[meta:Regime change]] (a page mostly written by banned user 142.177) along with many other 142-written meta pages elesewhere (such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:JRR_Trollkien/Troll ) indicates that JRR and 142.177 are one in the same.

I allow anyone (pretty much) to edit my red faction page. Even though you might worry about the communist overtones, it is not a wiki-communist organization. It was created for those users who need wiki-love and they don't get it. Now I never knew that 142 wrote that page which provides a rather interesting insight into who Jrr is but it is still not enough proof to convince me.   Do you Yahoo!? Friends. Fun.

.. If you suspect that someone is a reincarnation have the logs and other technical information checked, and bring back that information. That will be the basis for the appropriate decision. The incessant gnattering about whether someone's edits resemble those of a banned user serves no useful purpose.

This is not necessary when the "Trollinator 3" immediately goes to work restoring the deleted material previously posted by "Trollinator 2" and "Trollinator 1".
