3.3 years...you must be very patient I would have given up.
Also, you didn't make your point. What happens "when your back"?

1180 days? Boy, that's strict. What did you do, kill another forum member? Run over Geoff's cat?

Nah, I'd have a hard time believing that.

Here's Cam's other post.
I mean it, OTHER post. He has TWO.

Seems pretty innocuous.

He didn't use the proper punctuation! He only got 1180 days?

I found a good depiction and description of what we are likely dealing with here:
This person is a mystery: Is he a foreigner with only tenuous grasp of English? Is his brain addled by some powerful drug? Does he suffer a serious mental debility? Is he typing wearing a catcher's mit? This person's rampant typos, malapropisms and seemingly aggressive use of execrable grammar can't be explained merely in terms of poor typing skills or the lack of a spell checker. Even non-English speakers generally do a better job of punctuation grammar and capitalization, and this person is all the more puzzling because if one goes to the trouble of wading through the muddle of his messages a discernable idea will usually emerge. For example, in a forum discussion about a painting he might say, "Sorry the picchr the har is wrog. The culir. I liike the lips bot teh Paintng is sucs". When attacked for his random capitalization this person might respond, "oPS i HITTED THE CAPDLOCK". Not surprisingly, he drives everyone absolutely nuts, but he is utterly impervious to any sort of correction and if their attacks persist he will sign off in a huff with something like, "yuor forum si stupef. bYE!"

When your back does what? Itches? Grows hair? Gets tattoed without you knowing it? Grows nipples and parades around claiming it is your chest? Damnit man, what is it!?
