Would park operations managers get mad if I contacted them and told them little more about myself than I actually put on my job application?

Screamster is a different person. Just like all of you are different people.

Oh, BUSTED! John Pratt and Screamster are the same person. I knew it. Same IP address, and I can see him logging in and out in our server logs from the same address.

Seriously? Even though it was plainly obvious.

Well I'm sure that several managers will appreciate that this will hopefully stop the non-stop voicemails.

I'm just guessing here, but I'm thinking the pointbuzz ban hammer doesn't have the ability to stop someone from calling and leaving voicemails to CP managers.

I was thinking the same thing. If John is even for real, posting here didn't make a difference, because all he did was ignore us and do things his way. If he calls as much as he says he does, then I think the park would've blocked his phone number.

Ya know, sometimes the Ban Hammer comes down (and it doesn't happen very often) and I feel kind of bad.
It's one thing to have differing opinions, and that happens often. It's also another thing to get into arguments, and that's to be expected sometimes too. But to get expelled takes a lot. Most times it's because the person is abusive or blatantly disrespectful to other contributors, and I see a lot of people (here and other places) that teeter precariously close to that edge. And sometimes, even, the conversation is allowed to continue, and I'd guess it's simply because places like this are Internet forums and that's what happens here.

But in this case we have a liar. And who knows why? I picture him as some pathetic misfit who, for reasons unbeknownst to us, has a lack of social skills that must certainly extend beyond the scope of what's happened here. If he presented similar behavior on the doorstep of his potential employer as he exhibited here then his story gets even sadder.

So I realize he's not mine to worry about, but I've wondered for a while whatever became of john pratt and if he ever got that call. (I was guessing no...) The fact that he deleted his posts was both hilarious and weird at the same time. Then Screamster showed up and it was so apparent he was the same guy that the weirdometer needle went off the chart.

But once again, this is the Internet and you never know who you're dealing with. I'm not going to think about this too much more, but I've thought seriously about the possibility that it's all been a fake and he's been chumping us all along.

Oh well, bye bye.

I'm frankly just amazed that people still think they can get away with sock puppet accounts, let alone with IP checking, but especially when they use the exact same writing style, vehemently defend their other account or know way too much information about the person they're supposedly not.

It takes a special level of obliviousness.

I don't view him as so much a liar, more just a young person making poor choices, like every other young person.

I gave the kid the benefit of doubt as long as I could, but I'm never going to tolerate outright deceit and multiple accounts. Whatever issues he has, he needs to understand that there are consequences to his actions.

At least screamster & john pratt didn't start arguing with each other. That's when it gets creepy.
