Update: you can downvote everything I do, but I'll just remind you of if statement confusion.

Well, obviously you were talking about a different situation than me. The situation I remembered was I post an answer, a complete solution, and someone shows up later with irrelevant junk that doesn't compile -- there no point in even discussing that junk, I'll point out that its junk , point out my solution, and I move on -- no point in discussing or dissecting all the things wrong with the junk

Now back to Re^3: if statement confusion where you accuse blackstar of being a sockpuppet, just whose sockpuppet do you think blackstar is?

His writing style isn't reminiscent of the other players in that thread , but his reappearance could be seen as suspicious

I doubt the original account holder actually posted or was a sockpuppet -- I suppose the account could have been hacked ( It's Time for Everyone to Change Passwords! ) but I don't really know the odds of that happening, the gods would have a better idea
