Dude, I thought Coburn in 2012 was actually a real person. I know that sounds crazy to people but I know quite a few people here who made Coburn (even if he were fake) sound tame.
I know that some of you can't envision someone that extreme, someone that hateful, but I sure can, hell I'm surrounded by them.

With that said, all JSojourner did was portray a couple of socks, and even if he is a chronic liar who gets a high out of manipulating people and is using this apology to play with our emotions to get us to beg him to come back, well let me just say that this is a f***ing internet forum, not real life. If you actually felt hurt because of something someone did over the internet, you're pathetic.

I've also met people exactly like Coburn.. in fact I've met too many that are *exactly* like him.  I think it's because they have the herd mentality and they're just incredibly insecure and reactionary.  Someone that acts like Coburn most likely has mental problems that could be diagnosed by any qualified doctor.

I think what he did was wrong simply because it betrays the trust of people.  When I found out about it... it made me wonder if Jsojourner was actually a genuine poster or if that was just another "sock" of sorts... but I think he explained himself clearly and Jsojourner just has that genuine feel... so I can't be mad forever.

Wow, after reading this now I really know you are one really disturbed, f-ed up individual.

Most of the forum populace is so stupid that they'll forgive and forget and let things get back the way they were before.  Some of them may be so stupid as to trust you again.

I won't, period.  Of course, it's not like I did in the first place, so merely consider it a resumption of status quo.  Just with validation.

lol, why do you care so much? Most the forum is willing to forgive him because they don't really care enough to hold a grudge against someone they don't really know anyway. He isn't an integral part of anyone's life here (or at least he shouldn't be). Your attitude here, ironically, is one that fosters the creation of more internetz drama! Of course, I'm not saying I have any problem with that... just felt that I should point that out.

lol - for thinking that I hold a grudge and that I actually care. 

Read the post again.  I'll even help you.

I came to the conclusion he was a disturbed, f-ed individual two years ago.  Henceforth, this discovery (and the last two posts of today, which btw is the best evidence yet) is nothing new and merely validates my point of view.  There is no grudge and I don't really care - this is fact to me bore through observation and reading, nothing else.

Maybe you're right about me fostering more "internetz drama!" in terms of pointing out that almost all people (well, not the socks or trolls) are this forum are gullible suckers and are allowing themselves to be drawn in again because it makes them feel good.   So be it - I do like to ruffle feathers every so often.

Let's look at it this way - How many times have I actually responded to JS on this forum or otherwise in the past couple of years?  How many times will I post to JS on this forum after this whole thing?  Do I keep JS threads around - looking for ways to prove that I'm right?  Will I really care if the forum lets him back in with open arms?

This topic is probably about it for me on the JS subject - but this particular post struck me as classic manipulator behavior, so I felt like responding.

That's a fairly lengthy post for someone who doesn't care.

Sam Spade only cares about 1 thing:  Sam Spade.  And if he has to turn the attention of the forum onto him by going on at length about how he *doesn't* care... then that's what he'll do.  At the end of the day, Sam Spade's universe is very small.  He's the only one in it.
