I don't doubt that AinQ has met some people. But guess what, it still doesn't change that a lot of what he says is bullshit or not true and that most of it is just trolling. Just like Dawg has met someone from WoV (The guy that used to own the forum), but still everything he claims is bullshit.
hey Rob met Alan, and who knows who else. Does that mean Rob's claims are not bullshit? of course NOT. :cool:
First of all, this forum was founded on the premise that it was NOT an "anonymous internet forum." The main poster, Alan Mendelson, was NOT anonymous. The next most common posters were NOT anonymous. Alan Mendelson, Singer, the guy running the video poker and slot teams, the Dice Influencing writer and team captain, myself, and others -- none of us were anonymous. Let me repeat that -- the MAJORITY of the primary posters were NOT anonymous. This held true for years.
That's not even counting people like mickey or (on other forums) "Jean Scott," who, while not using their real names, are not exactly "anonymous forum posters."
This forum devolved into the anonymous fairy tale forum when the low-end, "maybe I'm a pro" alleged "APs" decided it was their preferred bedroom for nighty-night stories. With no evidence. With no corroboration. With no actual verification of anything. With banal, no-detail explications, like kewlJ's, and so on.
So kewlJ's little observation and question is not only historically incorrect (surprise, surprise as Gomer Pyle would say), but utter bullshit, as per usual.
But allow me to properly frame his question, "Why would anyone on a formerly not anonymous forum request proof of anything?" Because some people don't like the idea that they are wasting their time reading fairy tales.
Addendum note: This entire topic is going to spin out of control soon enough. Within months, forums are going to be deluged with traffic-generating AI posts being assigned to various handles under the auspices of human posting. Much, if not most, of your posting will likely be in response to some auto-program, sucking minutes and hours out of your life that could be spent actually interacting with human beings (some with actual names). There will be no way to figure out when or if a person is doing the actual posting, so people can just bleed off their time responding to things not written by people.
