I really liked that personal detail about a muso who has always been unapologetically confessional - and it didn't seem unwillingly extracted in this case either (unlike some recent Hollie Smith coverage). Both lovely. Sigh.
And good on you for spreading the word, Dyan.

You're arguing as if the "other names" are not the same person exhibiting the same behaviour. Once that changes, no one will care - plenty of substantive stuff to discuss.

There is no public interest in who else i post as
When you show a history of being abusive, Robbie, it is understandable that the public here will take an interest. Any community would, to protect itself.
Your own habits gave you away, though I'm now persuaded by the insightful Ben that maybe this is your real name. Honour it with good words and honest behaviour from now on and I'm sure people will have no reason to bring up the names you've used in the past.

Papal procurement. Vatican must have heard the conversation.

I'm not sure that making such connections is a breach of etiquette
If someone appears under several successive handles, others will quite naturally form impressions about the reliability, courage and integrity of their utterances. By now I have no confidence that our stoushy friend is indeed named "Robbie Siataga", and nor do I care. But having previous fake handles outed after abandoning them hardly seems outrageous to me.
The personal blog 'Robbie' previously linked to (which matched a pseudonym used here and elsewhere) was much more reasonable in tone than the try-hard sneering we've been subjected to. In my book that's bad faith and it seldom contributes to a good discussion.
I also believe Islander's rather intemperate response was not up to her usual standards. I'm grateful Emma and Russell are looking out for us and I respect anyone with standing here reminding me if my own behaviour is out of line.

bodies that will give out large (six-figure, preferably in the 200-500k range) grants to Auckland-based community theatre groups?
Don't know what size payouts the various gaming trusts stretch to. Probably helps if your theatre group has the phrase "racing club" in its name.

The key thing with both eugenics and a modern understanding of disability is seeing people as groups, not just as individuals.
