Dammit Doug if you're going to keep messing around on Oppo that's gonna be a ban.

It's really weird. I'm getting replies from people thinking I'm Doug and this is to comments I made before I changed my display name.

For all the people who think it's actually Doug, click on his name to see his Kinja blog...

Yeah, I'm not trying to hide anything. Just pointing out something in Kinja. I'm going back to McSeanerson soon.

This happens too. Look at the link to the notification from this post.

Hi Doug, just starring your comment and responding to get your attention because you are one of the guys who apparently run this page. Please answer to make me feel wanted.

No, you're thinking of Doug Demuro, not to be confused with Doug DeMuro. I'm doug demuro.

Imirrelephant > mcseanerson

It's a pretty serious thing, which I'm sure you know. If someone pulled that on the front page, jimmies would be rustled. I'm surprised nobody's done it yet.

On the other hand, if a person got out of the gray by working for it on the FP they would be less likely to pull some shenanigans like that. It is an issue, though.

What state do you live in?

mcseanerson > Imirrelephant
09/23/2014 at 15:29

I replied to one of DeMuro's comments on the front page. I'm not pretending anything though. I was about to change back to my original display name and decided to see if this was possible. If anybody thinks I'm trying to be sneaky or start crap I'll go ahead and change back to McSeanerson.

Hey Doug! Can I have your Ferrari for free?! It's going to a good home!

Sure! Next time you see me leave it unattended with the keys in the ignition just take it. If the cops try to stop you just tell them we have an understanding.

09/23/2014 at 15:36

Wow. You even liked my comment. That's so cool. Your (important misspelling!) my role model now. Come have a beer with me sometime when you visit [insert rural town here] and let's be friends. [in reality, I consider you my friend now because you replied to me on the internet]

crowmolly > mcseanerson
09/23/2014 at 15:39

No, look at the link to my reply:

http://oppositelock.jalopnik.com/you-are-the-on…

When you edit the text changes, however the text in the direct URL to your post does not. Hence, mine is a quote from Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back .

mcseanerson > kaheff (L20E)
09/23/2014 at 15:39

Eh, plebian from [insert rural town here] I only mention your town to make jokes about flyover states at your expense.

09/23/2014 at 15:43

Haha holy shit. I was looking at one of my old posts and saw that Demuro has replied to me. I didn't remember that.

Makes sense now.

edit - I'm changing my name to Doge Demuro as soon as someone photoshops a picture of doge into a Ferrari.

mcseanerson > Bad Idea Hat
09/23/2014 at 15:49

Yeah it was weird, it was like Doug! I love you! Thanks for replying!

kaheff (L20E) > mcseanerson
09/23/2014 at 15:51

Wow. Your so cool, Doug. I really love your Lambo. It doesn't make you look like a pretentious dick at all.

09/23/2014 at 15:55

I know, but people really thought I was putting on airs with that cube so it had to go.

ACESandEIGHTS > mcseanerson
09/23/2014 at 15:57

You're right. I saw you the other day as Sean The McBarbarian (Seanerson). I've got my eye on you McSeanerson, if that really is your name.

I'm actually Orlove.

Ah sweet! Thanks! But....what happened to that Doug guy? He was here a moment ago....

mcseanerson > zeontestpilot
09/23/2014 at 16:05

I don't know, I'm Orlove.

I did the same thing on April 1st this year. I created a separate account and pretended to be Hardigree for about an hour. I was liking comments left and right, challenging people to arm wrestling contests, etc...

Then I got cocky and replied to one of the other editors and the account was banned five minutes later.

Oh well.

mcseanerson > McMike

I just see Okulski and Hardibro having a throwdown in the kitchen and five minutes in Okulski says Don't talk about my mom like that! And Hardibro replies I never said anything about your mom! What the hell's wrong with you? Then they have an akward pause where they catch their breath and ban your account. In hind sight I probably should have made a fake account but I was just trying to highlight it could be done.

Dang it!! why do i keep getting this wrong?!

There was a weekend where me and like 5 other people changed our usernames and avatars to match Frank Grime's. Mass confusion ensued.

We should all get together elsewhere and organize a denton mob.
