I left once

Back in 2005, I think.    We had an uber-troll around here that really disrupted the board.  No one was off limits to this guy and it seemed like he wasn't going to be dealt with. I seldom have an issue with trolls and have no problem letting them wear themselves out.  But man, this guy made us his full-time gig.  I bailed for a few months. 

Most of the regulars around here were very bummed completely unaware that I'd left.   When I checked back a few months later, he'd been dealt with.  Don't remember his name, but his signature was a weird, poorly-drawn cartoon of a wookie in a red robe.  Must have been a few versions of the software back, because I don't remember an ignore feature - which I'm fairly quick to pull the trigger on.

Most definitely Adamwankenobi. He had the holiday special signature...

Don't be silly.  You're Janskeet, not Adamwan.

I'm surprised that I only have vague recollections of AWK.  I know I was around when he was, but I don't quite remember the specifics.

I wasn't here, but I've read plenty of his...um...stuff.

It doesn't matter if it's the same person or not really, it's the same demon.

If it's on Off Topic and not too offensive I don't have a problem with it.

Obvious joke threads can be skipped, joke postings don't have to be read.

If it gets too annoying there's the ignore feature which I've only used a handful of times and usually switch off again in the morning.

Yeah, that was him.

I disagree Bingo.  Pedophiles are a different problem than your average garden-variety troll.

 Did this guy admit to being a pedophile or was he found out ?.

I don't recall for sure, I think he was found out.  But IIRC, he didn't exactly deny it, and he sure did talk a lot about young girls in a way that was suspicious at best.  I think there was also some stuff he put on Wikipedia that was pro-pedo or something sick like that.

Gaffer Tape might remember better.

Ergo my line about not offensive (as I recall he sent suggestive internet messages to Dayv's children) probably more to be as offensive as possible than a genuine attempt at sexual molestation but certainly a thing for the law to deal with.

Man, I must have missed some crazy stuff while I was away.  Damn.

yes, Dayv said adam sent messages to his daughter.    Of course, we don't know if that really happened.

And given recent events, it's hard to know for sure.  But it seems like it would fit AWK's character.

Also, did he admit he did it?  I think he even may have apologized for it somewhere.

you're right.   He did apologize for it.   I had forgotten.

Once again those posts about Portman aren't proof he is a pedophile but it does prove that he was sick in the head at the time.

He could just as well have been using the largest remaining taboo for shock value (which shows a complete lack of understanding and empathy with the outside world to do that to score points on an internet discussion board).

It's up there with posting doctored holiday snaps of disabled people and adding sexually themed captions to them (something else that happened on here and the mods were kind enough to remove).

Ok, here we go.   I think he's admitted he's a pedo here.

Warning - NSFW, and also not an easy read.

ah yes . . . that is something I wish I had forgotten.

I have actually had fantasies of going to Thailland to pick up a child prostitute.

True it doesn't prove anything...he could have been just pulling everyone's leg.  But Jay saw fit to ban him for that very comment.

Also, the messages to DAVY's daughter (who I believe was under the age of 10?) would be about as close to proof as you could have without....ugh...pictures.

I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure actual messages to a minor could get you prosecuted.  And he admitted he did it.

Indeed and I hope the law was called on him, even if he did it to spook Dayv out it shows a degree of mental discord well beyond the safety zone.
