I can believe it....most of it but not all. He was PM'ing me the last few months and I got into a dialogue with him. He was already unhappy with the nasty PM's that fox was sending to people. I think this and fox getting caught by Phillip TWICE is the reason he's quitting. He just wants to take as much credit as he can before he goes. It is interesting to note that the IMDB board had dropped to an all time low of 15.263 posts the day before he announced his retirement and now it suddenly back at almost 17,000. Very telling that. But I won't be going to IMDB, it happened once it could easily happen again with the apathtic administration there, beside why live in the wilderness when we have Eden all to ourselves.
BTW, we all know what college his buddy ended up at. Very amusing that he admitted his partner-in-stupidity went off "to college," which is how I nailed his fanny, and then we got a parade of denials about how it was so funny that we all thought his friend was a college student. Deny deny deny... admit. Oops. It's also interesting that after my fax went back to SUNY, and the college told me it would take appropriate action, we never heard from him again.
What is stupid about all this even more is that IMDb couldn't bother doing what took me literally minutes to do. As far as his "retirement" message goes, like the vast majority of the dwindling participants there even care. You don't need psychic powers to know this is a 15 year old that gets picked last in gym class, has no friends otherwise, and sees this online "power play" as the pinnacle of his personal relevance to the world. Coming next, his blog.
