"Sister Soffie,
On the contrary it is [log in to unmask]  that owns Kabir Njaay since it
is the username that is unique and not the other way round..."

Just how numb in the brain can one be?

So according to your convoluted logic, if you buy a car and register it with
registration number: ABCXXXX, it is ABCXXX that owns you, or rather, it's
the car that owns you?

In further trying to rationalise the awkward you wrote

"...The emailaccount [log in to unmask]  like [log in to unmask] were
subscribed
with one REAL NAMES after confirmation with members of the management
team..."

Logical minds are prone to inquire, just why it is necessary then to confirm
the identity of the potential members upon a subscription request? To
logical minds it is unnecessary to explain that behind every rule/law there
is an intent, but I am not surprised that to you that fact is lost to you.

Why would it be necessary to seek confirmation on the identity of someone
who sends in a subscription request when they can present a bogus name and
operate behind that even before sending in their first posting? Do I need to
spell that out too to you? Why the cowardliness?

I for one have not lost one iota of respect for Abdou Karim Sanneh for
responding in the manner he did when someone hiding behind a bogus name can
accuse him of all sorts of things about his personal life for merely stating
an opinion of an online paper that is shared by many, especially when
management claims to know the identity of the character behind the bogus
name. Neither not when 'management' failed to intervene to warn the funny
character to either use his real identity or desist from his shenanigans,
nor failed to divulge his real identity when requested by the members of
this forum. I have not read one single objection to that request, on the
contrary, all that voiced an opinion on the matter reiterated the need to re
enforce the rule on anonymity as they can remember them.

I can even recall that during my early days on this forum, Momodou Camara
used to send a list of all subscribers with both names and email addresses
even though there was no rule on anonymity then.

Going on to demonstrate your cluelessness you stated:

"...My take is that it is  subscribers problem if they chose to change
those REAL NAMES, and as far as I know there is nothing in our rules
against that.  If anything the List is based on the believe that
subscribers will behave with maturity and descency but I would welcome
any dicussion to address that loophole.."

Where is the spirit of the rule on anonymity then? Lost in your
convoluted intepretaion and reasoning? This to me is a further demonstration
of the failure in everything Africans pertake in. You do not feel obligated
to the membersship of this list but will come up with explanation that will
make even a corpse frown at its illogicality.
"..Brother Kabir,  njaajaan is your own creation not mine. And please find
another way of addressing your beef with me. I don't know you but I
believe you can do better than singing "hyms"..."

Hear how stupid you sound after beating about the bush with you convoluted
logic to finally arrive at the purpose of your real intention. How is
njaajaan my own making? Don't you know what my name is, shown in the display
field of all my mails and signed at the bottom?

Why are you not for example referring to Jabou Joh as Gunjur, or all others
by the user names on their email addresses? You can continue to play stupid,
but just address me by that just one more time, I can't wait!

What beef could I possibly have with you? After I warned you to address me
my my name or desist from addressing me at all you come here trying to muddy
the waters with the above nonsense? Hear how you come across? As a clueless
hypocrite when you say "...If anything the List is based on the believe that
subscribers will behave with maturity and descency..."

Where is your maturity when I have to remind and warn you that you are
provoking me? And the hypocritical moral adjudicators would jump up and try
to outdo each other when I respond in a manner which I deem as befitting
your immaturity and childish pranks.

That you'd misrepresent my warning as singing hymns instead of owning up to
your provocation tell volumes. But try me, I'm all game, your idiocy will be
reciprocated in an exponential manner.

What you can do is grow up and start being honest for once and implement the
rules. Any "debate" that you are inviting here is a nonstarter. The rules
are already there, the purpose of being in that group is not to play dumb.
Address the issue the members of this list are interested in and stop trying
to personalise it.

Kabir.
