Why does this person still possess most of us? Although I don't usually comment I found myself compelled to read any post concerning this person.

I haven't seen anything from him for some time - but he still seems to dominate.

Okay, so maybe it is a joke. Please be man or woman enough to attach your name to it!

And bear the wrath of Paragon? You must be kidding! I mean...what if he is God? The vengeance could be...well.. biblical!!

On the other hand: Maybe he posted it and is getting a good laugh.

He's the Eminem of BOL:

Now this looks like a job for me so everybody just follow me
cuz we need a little controversy,
cuz it feels so empty without me
...

And that sums up why I like coming here -- I never would have suspected that I'd find Eminem lyrics on BOL!

I agree dpersfull. I try to avoid it, but just can't when he begins attacking others and then posting as anon to support himself. It is just insane. I think there is a cliche, since today is National Cliche Day, that fits
"I refuse to get into a battle of wits with an unarmed man."

I was not going to comment on this thread, but it's more than passingly strange that someone in BOL management, at the moderator level, is able to disseminate purported information relating to a registered poster that is only available to BOL management. Only someone within BOL management has access to poster IP addresses and it's my belief that the only way to secure those addresses for public dissemination would be through legal action. Disseminating information relating to IP addresses, their use, etc. is just as bad - I think it's criminal.

This is one more case of Dawnie stepping over the line with no action by BOL Senior Management. In this case, it’s like taking something out of an employees personnel file and showing it to other employees. BOL is basically a compliance site for bankers? What a joke! For someone within BOL to check insider records and confirm or deny anything about a poster on a thread is over the top.

Once again, shameful behavior by a BOL moderator – no action by BOL Senior Management to protect the privacy of posters. I'm not asking that this thread or Dawnie's post be eliminate, as the post is so revealing of the personality of the poster - it's classic non-compliance. As to the thread, who cares - but I would skip the first two options as the third option is closest to the truth. I'm not saying true, just more true.

Who among us can support what Dawnie has done?

It is hoped that if audit trails and user logging are periodically or systematically monitored by BOL, that these processes are being carried out at the same level of operating professionalism as expected by bankers, and as outlined in the BOL best practices developed by Michael Guard. As bankers, we must promote and enforce 12 CFR 216, Regulation P, Privacy of Consumer Financial Information and provide assurances that regulated banks are adhering to strict standards governing the use of "consumer", "customer", and "customer nonpublic" information. I have to believe that the public-forum reference by Dawnie to a specific user's usage patterns was just anecdotal boasting or a tongue-in-cheek generalization made as an "out-of-school" comment or joke.

The BOL Privacy Policy clearly states that there is an expectation of reasonable user privacy. The Policy states that while users should use caution when including identifying information on BOL, these same users may "feel free to post under a pseudonym" to the BOL's web-based bulletin board. The word "pseudonym" is the operative word indicating that an expectation of privacy safeguards and industry-standard security methods are employed.

I have to believe that Dawnie's comment was just hyperbole. Any public forum discussion of any user's use patterns, log-on routines, or transactions would appear to contravene with the BankersOnline Privacy Policy. and would be actionable. I have no doubt that Dawnie will clarify that she mispoke.

How exciting! I've never been involved in a cover up before! What do I do? What should I say? Do I need a disguise?? Should I tell my kids I'll be late for dinner?? Can I get one of those wigs like Jennifer Garner wears on "Alias"?

I've always enjoyed it. Andy was more fun when he wore the heels, but he's still pretty cute in the pink wig on Wednesdays so we still allow him to play.

Heck. I didn't see any red light on that camera. I think it looks best with a bottle of gel and shaped like a mohawk.

No, this post is right on the money - but not me - and that is the point. No, the "Q" did not post my IP address, but she did post information about paragon - against BOL privacy policy. And yes, Andy steps up to say nothing - he is what is know as an enabler. Andy has changed, a lot, since going to work for BOL.

And yes, as I've stated - I've posted anon but it's an exception, nowhere near the level that is credited to me.

Here we go again, another BOL coverup, simply because I'm paragon. But, no I'm not angry - as nothing is more fun than to see real personalities come out on BOL! Especially, when they come out in full support of non-compliance incidents and circle the wagons - shameful, but at the same time interesting and telling of the human condition.

I do wonder what that cute MBG thinks about this!

Crayon Girl - more dry and witless humor? You need to work on wit as there is nothing worse than someone that thinks they have a quick wit and capable of a quick wit retort, but are unfortunately witless. Not that that's a bad thing, as it applies to the majority of Bolers - I sure you will agree.

As I'm here to help, there are some examples:

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but couldn't find one big enough for her family.
She asked a stock boy, "Do these turkeys get any bigger?"
The stock boy replied, "No ma'am, they're dead."
-------
"Did you wake up grumpy this morning?" he asked.
"No," replied the woman, "I just let him sleep."
------
"There are two words I don't allow in my class. One is gross and the other is cool."
From the back of the room a voice called out, "....... so, what are the words?"
-----
Do you now see how wit works? I would not want even this part of your personality walking around completely witless.

This has been a presentation of Wit 101 by paragon.

---

If you want a lesson in wit, just study my posts!

Quote:

---

Actually, Z you are sort of on the witless side, but you are an attorney, so there is little time to work on not being witless. Crayon Girl is a special case, in that this persona was intended to be full of wit - it worked for about 1/2 of one post - now it's redundantly witless, not even half-witted and bordering on dim-witted. In your world it would be witless in the first degree, in other words a death penalty case. But, Bolers are generally kind to the witless, so I've posted Wit 101 to see if she can get back on track. Just another free service from BOL.

You know what the scary part is - the Crayon Girl persona is apparently the most witty facet of her overall personality!

---

Waaaaaa, waaaaaa, waaaaaa...me ouch!!!

Luv ya, mean it.....

The coolest part of all is that I have been witty enough to ALLOW you to BELIEVE you know me...

Grammatically, the above sentence is simply horrendous. Adding the word "are" before "capable" would help the flow greatly, but the sentence simply lacks much thought.

Now, the rest of the post isn't too bad. The jokes were pretty funny and a good example of wit.

...she had bubbles in her think tank...

A fine example of what can be considered to be funny.

Well done, sir.

From this point forward, let us be PC and refer to Paragon simply as our "grammatically challenged" friend....

You’ve caught me red handed. I am SVP of the bank library; a small collection of dusty regulatory manuals which are rarely checked out. My life is dreary. You shine the only Ray of light I see these days. I think you for this profusely.

I must admit, again you’ve brought up a wonderful point. The pay scale for a bank librarian is rather low. Fortunately the effort you have made to point this out to me has started me thinking; “In comparison to my low pay, what is the pay scale for an unemployed banker?” You can help me out there can’t you?
