In DX4All, it is a second user account, normally created to say or do something that the person does not want associated with their main user name.
To combat this problem, DX4All members are only allowed one user account in DX4All, and "sbrulaux" was also "Lilsdad", who was banned for doing a very good impersonation of the orifice located in the space between butt cheeks.

Hi Guru,
Please bear with me on the following trivial issue, I hesitated to bring it up. It's simple but convoluted in explanation. I'm sure there's an easy fix.
Whenever I log out from DX4All using the button at the top right, I'm able to log out once but then I have to log out again to get the "all cookies cleared" and a cleared "log in" screen to appear. Otherwise my username still shows in the Online Users box.
This doesn't seem right to me.
Or is it that I'm logged out the first time and the second "log out" is redundant?
Is there something I need to tweak in my profile to be able to to log out on the first click?
Thanks,
Tommy

Well that is different then what I thought.
I have use a sock with my hand to make a sock puppet but never my butt cheeks.
That may be funner.

Hi Tommy, I think that's normal. Once you get to the "all cookies cleared" screen, if you try to go anywhere it would ask you to log in again. It was kind of confusing to me at first, but I think it's all OK.

And I'm sure it would take a MUCH larger sock - - -  - - - and perhaps a squirt or two of Febreeze???

Hi Alan....
Another bitch about something I know nothing about.....every time I come in here there are "X" new messages since my "Last Visit"......I go to all the messages I'm allowed to......but there are still a ton of messages not read at the top of the of the page.....are those messages in "Platinum"?
I don't know if the system is broken or this is just a function of not being able to access "Platinum".
Perhaps you could clarify this for me.....Thanks,
Jack

Yes it probably is the platinum folders, also if you have any forums blocked in your UserCP those will show as unread posts.
