I'm 99% sure that he was following all of my track-ratings posted on RateYourMusic as well, because we seemed to agree even on a track-by-track basis. For example he specifically called out The End of Dormancy off the new Voivod as a crap song with non-riffs or something, and while I had given it a 1.5/5 on RYM I don't think I ever brought it up on this forum. Even though there are other people on the forum that I had shared tech-prog/thrash interest in, he consistently seemed to mirror even some of my more cult favorites. For example, in mentioning the Spectral Incursion EP he posted



And in my brief review of it posted on RYM several years ago I wrote



I always gave him the benefit of the doubt because he apparently posted a photo of himself a couple years back (I never saw it though and didn't really care) when the Omni accusations were first levied and he never made any effort of talking to me personally through PM or anything. Figured that if he's a real person that I happened to have influence over, then I'm happy to spread the good word, but lol. If Omni thinks he can catfish me by just agreeing with me he doesn't know me very well.

Just realized that the one album in my 1997 list that Talos commented about was the one album in there I discovered through you.

I haven't even thought about this forum for well over a year, but Dodens messaged me about this Omni nonsense and goddamn has this been an entertaining hour of time I will never get back.

lol so dodens is reading this?

you should stop having a life and hang around us degenerates some more

 

[CiG]

The thing I learned when I ragequit this place that time is that when you're gone you think you have a life, but in hindsight I just used Facebook more.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

what's the difference between "active member" and "user"?

Facebook is the ultimate cancer. You guys wouldn't be having all these issues with Omni blackmailing and doxxing if you just chose to keep forum life and real life separate. Omni would just be a meaningless bit of text on an autistic metal forum if you knew how to keep your distance.

idk, an irl friend once gave people on UM (the opeth off topic board) my home address and one of the users subscribed me to porn catalogues, and even that didn't bother me enough to start obsessing over privacy. irl is just another forum, life is a game, etc

He messaged me on Facebook on a whim and gave a brief synopsis of the situation, which is downright fucking amazing. And I absolutely need to.

You tell your irl friends about UM? Sounds like you violated the rule anyways.

Yes but if not for all that Omni wouldn't have been completely exposed and utterly destroyed. Worth it.

several of my irl friends posted here back in the day, i don't even remember if i was the first one. probably was i guess. i remember posting on here in IT class lol

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Fair enough, forgot you were 14 or something when you joined this place. I posted with a younger brother of mine on a Warcraft forum 17 years ago, and although I didn't post on any forums with school friends, I did have a friend that I'd shit up internet guestbooks with before that, under the 'HamburgerBoy' moniker.

dude, i wasnt even talking to him on facebook when he initially started doxxing me. I just reactivated it like a year and a half ago. She supposedly found my name from my photobucket, which means she used pics of stuff i posted from this forum to get to my photobucket page.

bother you? you should have thanked him!

 

[no country for old wainds]

yeah maybe if i wasn't living at my parents' lol

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

oh yea, forgot these stories go back like 10-15 years

 

[Carpe Mortem]

Lol I am absolutely certain I have the biggest dick and am the least clucking hen in at least 10 pages of posts.

Heeeeeeelarious stuff though.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

I have the biggest dick

we wouldn't doubt it

 

[Carpe Mortem]

Lol you gotta admit a bunch of dudes gossiping for ten pages is hilarious just on principle. I'm not really poking that much fun I'm just a bit tickled.
