I'm not all that computer literate, and I'm completely clueless as to how these things work.

Don't know what that means. Sorry.

Why do I need one? Well, you all know how it is. You get banned from certain sites and what not, and you want another avenue to visit them. Nothing sinister, but simply a way around rules.

Nah, I don't think i'd ever do anything that would warrant a ban on a board like this. I'm usually banned from a board for simply disagreeing with people, and some childish mod not liking my opinion one too many times.

I've never been the type to post something offensive, or pornographic. Ever.

Im jus thinkin ahead is all.

I remember you got perm'd from gaf for getting banned and then trying to make a second account. What did you get banned for at first?

I got banned from GAF quite some time ago. Probably early last year. Then, after a few months I remembered an account I had registered for a long time ago, and tried to log in under that name. It worked, and I posted under that name briefly before one of their ninjas caught me.

I guess the mods were too dumb to figure it out, so they thought I had registered for a new account after getting banned, and that simply was not the case. Either way, yes I was permabanned from GAF sometime last year.

Edit: Oh yeah, and to answer the question of why I got banned. Basically for arguing in political threads with mods. Serious business.
