I'm getting sick of this place really fast... Goodbye, /r/conspiracy.

115  2012-08-22 by [deleted]

Things have been getting weird this week. Like really weird. The troll invasion has stepped up big time in the last few days, and I am now spending most of my time interacting with the trolls rather than having good conversation as usual. They keep flagging posts as spam so I have to approve them before they get seen. They are gaming posts via twitter. I'm calling it quits guys. It's been a great 9 months here, and I won't forget any of you. I'm going to stick around for a few more days to make sure that this sub will have a strong and active leader to fill my old spot before I go. There are a couple of mods still active occasionally, but I need someone who can be on here most of their waking life to fill my spot. Any takers should PM me and I will take it from there. I have a lot going on in life right now. I think I'm ready to turn the page. Much love /r/conspiracy, and thank you all.

EDIT: Due to the MASSIVE attention this post received and the amount of support I have received, I have no choice but to stay. I'm just going to take a break for a while and clear my head and recharge my spirit. I'll be back and better than ever. ;)

Thanks guys. You make this place great, not me. My role is small compared to you the users. I couldn't do it without all of you.

Don't leave, take a break :)

I've been blocked from sending a PM to 9000sins? I don't know why.

I haven't been barred yet, but most of my posts in the last 2 weeks have been blocked.

Before you go let us know who the poor mods are.

This sub does good work and the 1% can't stand it. Don't give up.

Make me and others approved submitters if you can. That should help get posts past the spam filter.

Isn't it weird, that first "IamJulianAssange" and now "9000Sins" are disappearing from the screen?

Very weird.

Ventura 2016

I got a weird (503)? error message earlier. Said it was subject to administrator approval or something weird like that.

Happened to happen right after I posted a bunch of Austrian, anti-Keynesian shit in r/economics.

It wasn't the normal "Reddit is under heavy load" message. Specifically said something about administrative approval.

Happened one other time, when I tangled with r/enoughpaulspam. Accused the of being the ones operating votebots, posted screenshots and sent to Reddit admins. Was briefly banned back then.

You must be really important.

oh yeah. super important.

FWIW your reply freaks me out a bit, seeing how this is a 9 day old thread in a subreddit you don't seem to comment in.

Cheers!

If you're not catching the flack, you're not over the target.

Bro, stick around. No reason to let the trolls win. Whether you leave /r/conspiracy or not, trolls will continue to be everywhere.

Look at 9000's comment history. The dude has been pegged over the past few days. I was downvoted to hell and called crazy for saying that we had been infiltrated. I'm fucking pissed off about this...

I don't know exactly what is going on, and I won't claim to KNOW because that would be pure speculation. I personally THINK there is a bit of poisoning the well by either rude, asshole Jones jocks, or sockpuppet forum-sliding accounts. We know that conspiratard has been hitting us hard, and especially annoying the primary users of this subreddit. It is fucked up.

The type of discussion that has been taking place over the past week or so is absolutely not a genuine representation of this community. Those whom have been here for a while know how incredible this subreddit can be...

We need to be posting legitimate examples of conspiracy/corruption/coersion with credible sources and highly insightful discussion around the sources. The bottom line is that the nonsense needs to be exorcised out of here, and this subreddit needs to embrace purifying itself of all contradictions. We need truth, not contradiction. We need to be prepared to accept when we're wrong, and dig deep in research to prove our points. WE NEED TO HAVE INTEGRITY.

If someone provides well sourced evidence that is logical and presented in a respectful way, then regardless of its conclusions, it should be welcomed as valuable discussion. The kinds of devils advocate questions as well as well sourced critical materials SHOULD BE received in a productive capacity, whereby a thought-provoking discussion can arise. What is not acceptable is the negatively sarcastic, straw-man/ad hominem ridden arguments that are mere bickering. This subreddit needs to get fucking classy, in a hurry. We need to adopt posting methods similar to r/truereddit.

I wish you wouldn't go, 9000. We can straighten this thing out with a change in the ethos around here. We need to take the highground as a community. We know we are historically, economically, and politically in the correct position, we just have to do the hard work to credibly and respectfully express ourselves.

I genuinely love each and every one of you, and want each of you to show the integrity that I know you have. Lets take the high-ground and source/discuss/ non-violently communicate our way out of this rut. We can do this. Join me.

/u/homegrownterran , /u/femacampdirector , /u/9000sins and myself have been working on an amazing project. Being the champion of open source that I am, I want any one of you interested to participate. PM me if you want the scoop, but I will not broadcast it here.

I hereby respectfully nominate /u/supercede as the replacement mod.

9000sins?

Seconded. I always enjoy supercede's posts.

I respectfully nominate /u/supercede to assist 9000sins and the other mods.

I'm cool with that. No offense to the list, but I'd rather have supercede be a lone moderator if 9ksins/HGT are gonna stop posting.

75k subs...the number is rising fast and the quality will keep getting worse. You can bet on it.

Eternal september springs to mind. Scourge of internet communitys the net over. Reddit is somewhat resilient due to the subreddit system. The attraction of /r/conspiracy for many would be the free thinking and hands off approach of the mods and it may be that tight moderation with clear objectives is required. That would mean more removals , comment removals and potentially more mods to implement the rules.

[deleted]

Some of the problems here are probably growing pains. It would be sensible to allow for that as a possible reason for the discord here.

This is a great question, and I certainly appreciate you asking it. My apologies for a delayed response, I made that post and then went to bed.

So, where to begin.. My general concept is that the true users begin posting in a more serious, academic manner. I sincerely believe that our trolling issue will be resolved if we create a new general ethos here, whereby everyone attempts to respectfully post their critiques in a sourced way, using "non-violent communication" as the initial approach to speaking with someone.

I believe that if one posts a link containing a theory that lacks verisimilitude, or clearly has little sources to back up any claims, the poster should post their degree of certainty to the information. For instance they could say: "I understand there are some speculative aspects of this article". Our problems arise when we post links and claim them as being "the truth" or "knowledge"...

I follow the continuum of Imagine -- Think -- Believe -- Know... Perhaps this kind of a continuum could be used to rank speculation. Starting backward, the list of proven conspiracies would be considered KNOWLEDGE, for example. pointing out certain facts about relationships and witnessing certain results can teeter on knowledge and belief, depending on the evidence of criminality/collusion ect (this is where the discussion on this subreddit can thrive).. BELIEF can be almost completely proven, but details may require more research. THINKING is essentially speculative; however, known facts that are loosely, perhaps interdisciplinarily connected can be discussed to sort out where there are contradictions and what topics there are where factual connections can be found. IMAGINARY posts are purely speculative with virtually no empirical evidence.

As I mentioned last night, even posts that are obviously in the realm of imagination should be welcomed here, because perhaps those looking for credibility in this sub can provide the OP with resources that will shed light on what aspects have integrity, and could use further research, or what statements are contradictory or fallacious. In this kind of a situation it is important that violent or hurtful words are never used, as the OP is just someone who is simply trying to make sense of reality. Attempting to have some integrity, We should try to teach them what Knowledge there is on said topic, and encourage a use of language that admits speculation.

Back to my original point, we should instill an ethos similar to r/truereddit, so that lively discussion can take place, and those disinformation or trolling can more easily be seen.

A subreddit for really great, insightful articles, reddiquette, reading before voting and the hope to generate intelligent discussion on the topics of these articles... To maintain the focus on great articles, Please (follow especially this part of the reddiquette and) do: Consider posting constructive criticism / an explanation when you downvote something. But only if you really think it might help the poster improve.

[deleted]

In general, we need to change our sidebar and our posting rules.

This is not going to cut it any longer:

This subreddit is for the REDACTED and the discussion of REDACTED that may or may not have REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED government agents.

We need to be specific that posts here need to foster sound sourcing, and respectful argumentation. We need a subreddit description similar to that of true-reddit, that acts as our statement of purpose. I'm speaking here about a rebranding of this subreddit.

In terms of dealing with highly antagonistic posters, or trolls, I think any poster who consistently posts negatively sarcastic, grossly unhelpful, or spiteful adhominem/strawman-arguments, should be reported to the mods by the community and downvoted accordingly. The "punishment" is between the mods and that poster. If it escalates to a point, than that user should be shadow-banned IMO. I'm not sure how many users actually get banned here, but if we rebrand this subreddit and encourage non-violent communication, the "trolls" will become very apparent, and hopefully the community itself will "smite them out".

I also believe we should encourage users to link their posts to some kind of degree of factual certainty. The Imagine-Think-Believe-Know continuum could be a basis for this (potentially quantitative) ranking... It would really serve to self-regulate the seriousness, or academic level of a post itself...

[deleted]

That sounds great :) I'll happily accept if the rest of the mods approve.

[deleted]

Thank you, sir! I look forward to participating.

The whole fucking karma circle jerk is false. The karma is real, the votes are fake and mean nothing.

We need to just be steadfast in our resolve for spreading truth and spend less keystrokes circlejerking who gets votes.

Seriously, look at the Robert_GuyCIABOATGUY, complete karma circlejerk with exposure across multiple forums.

When the truth surfaces, people wake up.

[deleted]

I do not think the front page is as important is you are giving it credit for. Evey one of us who has found the truth did not have it handed to us on the front page.

All the paths lead to a single source, all people have to do is start looking and not be satisfied until all their questions are asked.

[deleted]

Maybe those are the messages that need to be seen to turn minds free from the matrix.

Racism, hatred, and stupidy help people align their true values with love. Eventually people make the rounds of all the divisions created and realize the whole damn thing is working together to keep you divided from yourself.

PM me if you want the scoop, but I will not broadcast it here. [emphasis mine]

You have my thanks for that.

EDIT: sunshine-x is, at my request, interacting with the admins on this very same topic.

Organize, agitate, educate, must be our war cry.

  • Susan B. Anthony

This is an excellent quote. It is exactly what we must do if we want this subreddit to thrive.

you're awesome

Well thank you!

This is all a diversion from an awakening that is working so well people are worried. If there is a change at the helm, nothing should change. Literally nothing.

What is not acceptable is the negatively sarcastic, straw-man/ad hominem ridden arguments that are mere bickering. This subreddit needs to get fucking classy, in a hurry. We need to adopt posting methods similar to r/truereddit.

Are you saying homegrown terran doesn't behave in this manner?

He is a friend, and I will not comment on his behavior. Why would you give a damn anyway?

Get out of here unless you are adding something of value.

Oh geez, it's the /r/conspiracy gestapo "Agree with my silly points or GTFO"

I'd worry more about the people posting insanely far-fetched conspiracy non-theories and then acting like Mel Gibson when surprise people find the "theory" flawed.

oh geez, it's that go-to strawman argument...

This will be my only response to you. You are not welcome here. Your comments degrade the credible discussion that could potentially take place. I'm interested in verisimilitude, and you are obviously not.

The "insanely far-fetched conspiracy non-theories" are welcomed here, because you know what--- perhaps those looking for credibility here can provide them with resources that will shed light on what has integrity and could use further research, or what perhaps may be contradictory or fallacious. I would never throw violent or hurtful words out at someone who is simply trying to make sense of reality. Attempting to have some integrity, I would try to teach them what Knowledge there is on said topic, and encourage a use of language that admits speculation.

Is that it? I'm done with you, son.

This will be my only response to you. You are not welcome here. Your comments degrade the credible discussion that could potentially take place. I'm interested in verisimilitude, and you are obviously not.

Please, try it on someone who cares. I'm sorry you and your retard chain gang don't like people questioning the dumber crap you throw out there, but if you want to serious discuss conspiracies, you are going to have to seriously discuss conspiracies.

People who act like enraged gorillas when someone suggests "Jews don't control the world" are a larger impediment towards /r/conspiracy's goals than nasty words from a skeptic.

Now if people didn't knee-jerk shill-call in lieu of a rebuttal, perhaps that conversational tone would be different

It would be a straw man if I didn't have actual posts I was referring to. And perhaps if you didn't cite some of those people as exemplars of the community.

Wait a minute. You can't just leave. You just can step back a little bit and put fewer effort in this subreddit, if you wish.

You sir, are a rare species. If I had been in your position, I would have banned the fuck out of everybody who is actively destroying (flagging) this subreddit.

But not you. You were tolerant and democratic. Howsoever your decision will be, I do thank you for your service. Not many have the guts to be as active, because we prefer a less responsibility as possible, if we have a private life to live.

But having a function which alter the curse of perception is a very important function. So beware to whom you are giving it to. If this subreddit falls into the wrong hands, it would be a serious pity.

I am not trying to convince you to stay, because as a man, we have to take a stand after we spoke. However. That does not mean, that it will be forever and ultimate. So, just take a break and return.

But here is something which bothered me with you. You kept on mentioning that people are corrupting this subreddit by systematically conspiring against it. But (except from a link to /r/conspiratards) you did not provide and evidence. If people knew what you know. I'm telling this to you, because everyday I come to /r/conspiracy, I never see any suspicious things going on. So for the reader the things you claim are pretty invisible.

However again. Take a break. And come back whenever you see it fits to you. We will be here. Don't be ultimate because only the dark side talks in absolutes :D

Keep it up. With appreciation. From around the world.

I would've banned everyone from /r/conspiratards. Use a script to catch the usernames in the subreddit and then ban every single one of them and have that done automatically to run everyday. Simplest answer.

We'd just make a new username, even though I only downvote racist things, or things that have no evidence.

Doesn't matter. It is automatic.

i am talking about making a new username to post here, one seperate from /r/conspiratards

That would work. Banning everyone from /r/conspiratards is not the final answer since there never is one. There are only things you can do to reduce their effect on this subreddit.

they aren't a downvote brigade though, they come to look, and mock.

They don't just look. If that was the case then we wouldn't have this thread.

I enjoy /r/conspiratard but I only come here to downvote things with unsifficient sources/racist things/laugh

[deleted]

It is a lot, indeed.

things that have no evidence.

/r/conspiracy

I guess you downvote just about everything then.

Very rarely are things provided evidence for

Don't do that. We need you!

threadjacking the highest comment. Sorry.

I'm going to stick around for a few more days to make sure that this sub will have a strong and active leader to fill my old spot before I go. There are a couple of mods still active occasionally, but I need someone who can be on here most of their waking life to fill my spot. Any takers should PM me and I will take it from there.

Personally, I'm of the opinion that illuminatedwax should be making these decisions, not 9000sins. Just sayin.

TBH, I haven't seen illuminatedwax on here nearly as much as 9000sins. 9000 seems to be the most active mod I've encountered (That I like). Someone to step up and be an active mod is what we need, and who better than the man who's been holding the torch to decide who it's passed to?

Yes, he was active behind the scenes as well. He really cared and volunteered on thankless projects to make this place better. It's a shame really.

This sucks. really sucks.

I am truly saddened by this 9000sins.

Don't give in to these unnatural brutes. These machine men with machine minds and machine hearts.

Don't give in. I see you.

[deleted]

Troll, anyone?

what the what.

sense made= none

the plot thickens...

I can tell by your demeanor that there is nothing royal about you, you can stop claiming that.

You degrade having white pride while at the same time say you have partial claim to a "royal Prussian bloodline."

2 sides of the same elitist coin.

Your post wasn't very koscher.

Why is he saying all of this to me? I'm not 9000sins.

Define "Dirty bloodlines"

Don't give up. I've noticed the trolling as well and it's not been just this past week. I'm stepping up my game on Reddit after now seeing it for what it is. It has trolls, corporate and Military shills everywhere and that must be combated. You have places like conspiritard who are taking time out of their day to mock and collude against the subreddit and to infiltrate posts with downvote brigades and to slide topics. Be here and be fucking smart.

They trolled us both, heavily this past week or so. I went ballistic at them. He went ballistic at me (with this post, above). It's divide and conquer. I hope 9000sins works through this in his mind. Meanwhile, I'm glad illuminatedwax and biomassive both outrank him in his moment of weakness.

You bait them and thus encourage the trolls. You have multiple accounts that can shape any post (as long as you vote early enough), you're playing both sides against the middle, Just saying you might be responsible for the downfall of /r/conspiracy. Now downvote me with each of your accounts, (bring in the shills, they are following you), Just saying... You may have more influence than is necessary for this sub.

I have been honest about having multiple accounts. I have also been honest about having an ancient PC that is unable to wield the kind of power you suggest I have. I cannot even run RES, let alone manage to somehow game the voting on any post.

But, feel free to characterize me however you want.

What I will acknowledge, however, is that I turned loose a monster on reddit. I informed every troll, shill, and sockpuppeteer how to more effectively game the system. Yes, I did that. But, I have not gamed it myself. (I tried a couple times, but as I said... my system just isn't fit for that - 1999 Dell running Win98 and firefox 2.0.0.20. Manually disconnecting my modem to gain a new IP and rebooting my PC to clear out any traces of the old one... not very effective.)

Yea, you showed them how to "Cheat". Congrats?

No. I showed them how to cheat better. And, thanks.

What is your long-term goal?

To finish work on the system I already started which can (if sufficiently developed) detect, through heuristic analysis, shill/gaming activity and make recommendations for manual inspection and action. But, the admins have laughed me out of their way and continued with their closed source (security through obscurity) mechanisms. So, I turned that monster loose on them. The only reasonable voice I would recommend that you listen to at this point is /u/supercede. He hasn't even seen this yet, and he'll freak when he does. But, he'll be the impartial voice at this point.

[deleted]

I corrected an error, so that it didn't become a mistake. See the edit in my response to supercede.

For the love of god don't put HomegrownTerran or one of his other accounts in charge.

You're better off leaving it an unmoderated free for all.

[deleted]

:/ You second him to not be put in charge, or do you have a major reading comprehension problem?

It'd never happen. I'm the reason he's quitting.

Oh goddamnit Terran. You're a frickin double agent aren't you?

Yeah, but the pay sucks. I earn a whopping $0/year.

I hear that Stratfor is hiring. ;)

They haven't approached me (yet).

[deleted]

[deleted]

I suspect being an active mod here drains you to a degree. Perhaps the answer is to take a break from the heat to replenish energy rather than quitting.

I had a thought about this whole invasion situation and I'd just like to get some confirmation of the plausibility of my idea from you as a mod (since you have access to this sub's stats and the like). I'd address my comment to 9000 but I'm afraid he may have left us already, so here goes.

11 days ago, I submitted the TrapWire story here on /r/conspiracy. I believe I was the first to do so, as my post gained pretty good traction and attained around 200 points.

Now, here's the thing. At the same time, I was actively commenting all over the 2000+ point post on the same story over at /r/technology. One of my top-level comments, however, included a link to something a commenter in my /r/conspiracy post said. And well, I didn't expect it at all, but it got a whole lot of attention.

So I'm basically just wondering... Could a sizeable influx of /r/technology subscribers who had no interest in this subreddit before, be a possible explanation for a lot of the perceived "trolls, shills, and disinfo agents" we've seen here over the last two weeks or so? Assuming this was their first exposure to this sub, it would kind of make sense...

Of course, I may be vastly overestimating the impact of that comment and the users it drove to this sub, but judging by my upvotes (155) on that comment and its positioning in the main comment arena in /r/technology, combined with the fact that the story was really a bit of a wakeup call to a lot of people otherwise unacquainted with conspiracy theories and how we do things in this sub... I wouldn't be surprised if it sparked quite an interest and/or maybe a couple dozen cross-subscribers from /r/technology in a very short space of time. Oh and that /r/technology post front-paged for pretty much two days straight...

Oh and by the way, this account I'm posting from is only about 2 weeks old, but that's because I had to create a new one from my older shadowbanned account (which 9000sins kindly informed me of, after going through my comment history and presumably making the right assumption that I have a lot to potentially contribute here in this sub).

Would love to get your opinion on this theory of mine. Could be totally unrelated to any mischief going on here in the last while, but I thought it was worth a shot to bring it to your attention.

It's all your fault. kidding. I think that there have been a lot of conspiracy related front page stories and that there have been a lot of us commenting and telling people to come here, so you may have contributed somewhat. I had a post during the trapwire front page marathon that said "so the conspiracy theorists have been right!" and it was a top comment right under the top comment and I believe it was one of the main posters here said "come join us at /r/conspiracy" and I was like "already there, I post every day" so that could have led to another influx of people. I think since a lot of what we talk about here is coming to fruition in the mainstream a lot of people are drawn here out of curiosity and then once they realize that the information presented here does not fit their narrative of life, they decide to troll and be general dickhole downvoters. That is a scenario, I think, that is totally possible.

Thanks for backing me up with your own story. I remember the other couple of front-paging /r/conspiracy posts, too.

I guess all of this is quite obvious (the more uninitiated people who come here with little to no experience or research into many of the topics covered, the more general dickholery, and also a general and noticeable increase in gang-downvoting) but I think it's important for everyone (especially the regulars) to be aware that this mostly organic and natural influx is a possible cause for what we've been seeing lately.

It's just disheartening to think that a mod would just up and quit simply because there is too much dickholery to keep up with. In my humble opinion this is a terrible time, and a terrible reason, to leave as a mod. What we need right now more than ever is patience and level heads, because frankly, it really gives a bad impression to the subreddit as a whole to all the new subscribers. For one, they're not invested in any of this research yet, so of course that's going to lead to more trolling and thoughtless dismissals across the board.

Anyhow, that's all I wanted to say.

Edit: Just to clarify, I'm not in any way questioning that gaming is/will always be taking place, just that we've got to be careful about playing the blame game without good proof or "reasonable" suspicion. But I'm not worried about that, the investigative work on real trolls and the naming and shaming has been pretty solid so far.

Being a quitter = they won. Don't do it. If you want somebody to help you then just mod me and I'll do the bannings to take the heat off your back from the trolls.

[deleted]

A bit melodramatic. Trolls are pretty easy to spot. Just vote them down. Non-issue.

Not when they multiply like rabbits and circlejerk themselves to the top.

Easy? see how you have -3 votes?

Edit-

Now I'm the one with -3 and you in the positive.

That's because I'm not a troll. I forgive you.

Erm thank you?

forgive me for what?

That is what he has tried to do , to a certain extent. I suspect some of the drama now is a result. 9000sins bans someone for being disruptive or x posting to /r/conspiratard. They then go over to /r/conspiratard to complain about the unfair treatment.

Nice to see you, texmex. See this and this for what was going on when this exploded. tl;dr: we were working on something even better.

wow...your letting them win.....nothing in life is easy...don't give up!!

You're one of the few that keeps me coming back.

I'd be sorry to see you go.

Sorry you feel this way, I for one have enjoyed you as a mod, and I agree that this sub has gone down hill in the recent months. Good luck in all that you do.

Come on! You gotta at least stay until the election!!!

Would prefer if you didn't leave. I enjoy the content you add to the sub. I have a feeling things will improve after labor day.

Why labor day? I could see things getting better after the election, I could see some of the shills interested in opinion manipulation disappearing then. I sure hope that what happens.

because prophet

Kids go back to school. I agree, the end of the election will remove additional distractions as well.

9000, sorry about all that, but you did well so you deserve to go do what you want to. Thank you anyway,

[deleted]

Historically never been better than this. 75K+ and counting.

We cannot welcome you back at a better time. Please delve in and post your ass off.

They are trying to flush us out. Do not bend to their will.

What I am wondering, 9000SINS, is why stop? Why?

Has the 6000 year old conspiracy been solved? Have we had a restoration of the constitution? There are so many problems that still need to be solved and giving up on r/conspiracy is not what the movement needs right now.

We need more people doing more. I do appriciate what you have done for this community, but to give up now, before the world comes crashing down, is such a defeatist act.

Be Strong. Keep going. If there are trolls it is because we are getting somewhere. People are waking up.

I understand you have a lot going on in your life, I do as well. We all do.

If we turn away our eyes, they win.

ALLLLLLLLLLLLL that being said. Regardless of what you choose to do, keep resisting. You'll know where to find us and the search for the truth. God bless you and DOWN with the New World Order.

6000 year old conspiracy?

I love this part:

Has the 6000 year old conspiracy been solved? Have we had a restoration of the constitution?

So the conspiracy is old enough that the Constitution is a product of it, and yet is what we must fight to restore. There has been a split in the Illuminati! New 'reformers' locked in a struggle with hard line old-timers who want to return to the good old days.

I'm still completely lost. Maybe I need to start reading abovetopsecret again

Edit: I do follow the first sentence (juxtaposing a 6000 year conspiracy with the relatively modern constitution)

Please, please dont do that.

I used to read it for entertainment, like a trashy tabloid

Ah, not familiar with Ralph Epperson?

Can't recomend his stuff enough. He proves many many many things that you and I take for granted. Here, they are long (i have the mp3 versions if you want: PM me), but he really examines what the fuck is going on.

America's Secret Destiny : The American Constitution has been called "the finest document ever written by the mind of men!" The American people have been taught that it was written to restrict the power of government, and to protect their God-given inalienable rights to life, liberty and property.

But Ralph Epperson has discovered the evidence that the men who founded this nation were not God-fearing patriots as we have been told, but occultic practitioners of a secret worship on this earth. In fact, he will discuss the evidence that our founding fathers created two separate governments in the Constitution at the same time, and ONE OF THOSE GOVERNMENTS WAS GIVEN ABSOLUTE TYRANNICAL POWER! And that this is the government ruling America today!

He will also examine the Great Seal of the United States and its hidden symbols.

Conspiracy against Christianity - Note: I am not a christian but even I cannot deny the evidence of this conspiracy.

Only the US has Nukes -- This is fascinating. If you've lived through the cold war, your socks will be blown off by this.

Abolish the federal reserve -- Many of us know about the FED but this is Ralph Epperson's take on it.

The Conspiratorial View of History -- If you are in r/conspiracy you need to listen to this. This is what we all believe but laid out perfectly.

Vietnam: America's Betrayal and Treason -- If you are a vet, watch this, if you think you know something about Vietnam, watch this. Basically I think everyone should watch this because it completely changes what the story of vietnam is and was to me.

Ralph Epperson, in my books, is pretty much outspoken on the subject of conspiracies. He's been researching (HARD) for over 50 years, that's older than most of this subreddit so, in my opinion, we really need to embrace this man and his work.

Anyone interested in an AMA with Ralph Epperson?

Are you Ralph Epperson?

No. Are you? Does it matter? Are you looking for Ralph Epperson?

Or are you looking for the truth like me?

Curious as to how they are gaming posts via Twitter. Can anyone explain?

Think about it.

A group of twerps gets a tweet to vote up or down a submission.

See?

Now, offense meant to be taken, but if you have trouble figuring THAT out, perhaps r/conspiracy is not the subreddit for you?

Dude. Your last sentence is totally uncalled for, not to mention just plain rude.

For the record, genius, I presumed there must be some much more sophisticated operation regarding "gaming" Reddit via Twitter than just "here's a link, downvote it". Fake accounts, bots, something I'm not aware of, etc. Otherwise, everyone of them could just hang out in the subreddit and downvote everything.

In the short time I've been in this subreddit, I think I've added to the discussion, and with the main mod talking about the general degredation of this subreddit and quitting because of a lack of quality, I think it would be best to not attack members who contribute to the betterment of this community with snide and childish remarks.

Well said

Okee dokee.

We need you :(

Is there any way we can make a list of suspected Troll accounts? I feel like this is the only viable news source, is this subreddit..or at least it was

If you leave the whole neighborhood will turn to shit.

I've seen a lot of unfounded accusations and general paranoia. I think that's all it really is and probably isn't worth quitting over. Just walk away for a while, you don't have to remove yourself. Learn to surf or something.

Welp. I don't want this sub to die. So, after carefully reading this shitshow of a thread. I will just say:

If I can do anything to help, let me know. I'm here, everyday, when I have time. I try to be fair and rational. I love this sub.

I hope everyone can work out their differences and that the trolls find something better to do.

9000sins, whatever you decide, I believe we are all in your debt.

Its never been more alive.

I think the problem with conspiracy is that its such a broad thing to say, conspiracy.

People toss in everything from Occult to obamas passport and its just a mess. It needs to be broken down into managable chunks where its easy to recognize whether or not its legitimate for the sub.

I think subredditing down the info though will not help things, it may hinder important discussions because it will spread the subscribers thinly across several subreddits, most people that come here come for the full spectrum analysis and not on a specific topic. Take a look a /r/agenda21 I am the only one who has posted there it is embarrassing even though it covers one of the biggest open conspiracies ever in history.

not necessarilly to that specific of a level, but if it were political conpiracy, alien conspiracy, occult conspiracy. I have very little interest in alien conspiracies, I can't really tell you why not. but I love occult conspiracies

I think they all tie in together. It would only make sense. The occult side is the motivator behind the government conspiracy which has interdimensional alien technology?

What other sites do you use other then Reddit, that are like it? Because I and I'm sure many others have noticed this chicken shit bullshit too.

I visit Godlikeproductions, though it's not troll free either.

go say tavistock there.

I suggest you all go to Something Awful and post all about your findings. They take this shit serious over there.

Could anyone here let me know how you game posts via twitter? What the fuck is going on here? I just found this sub 2 weeks ago. Has this whole world gone crazy? This guy sounds like he is a good guy trying to bring out the truth. Now either he is really jaded about being a mod or he is being threatened. What the fuck?

You have your #hashtag following.

You tweet a URL with said #hashtag.

Your followers invade said url.

When they invade said url, what happens? I'm sorry for being ignorant on this, which I realize I need to catch up. But do they crash the site? How do they know the url has been linked to this sub? Holy shit, I'm rethinking everything.

They invade with their accounts. Commenting/downvoting/upvoting to promote their own message (making it appear via voting and whatnot that the regulars here are crazy or whatever).

Is there a way you can link these accounts with a mod warning of reasonable suspicion?

mod-assigned flair can do that, but then users don't get to define their own.

But, I'm opposed to mods assigning flair because it wields undue influence over people. It's no different than shill voting comments to make them appear more popular/more right/more whatever. Everyone needs to actually read and learn for themselves. It's the only way for people to actually wake up - and to be aware when invasions are occurring. If a rogue mod invades (see the Gentleperson's Guide to Forum Spies in the sidebar --->) they can then label their invading forces as trustworthy and the truly reliable people as not-so. It's a very dangerous thing to do. People need to wake up and learn for themselves who they can/can't trust.

I know there are a lot of comments in this thread, but take a look at what DomesticTerranist is doing to characterize me as a "bad guy" in all of this (shame on me for controlling my own subreddit as I see fit! How dare I!).

Wait..."rogue mod"? What the fuck? Do any mods possess any REAL power around here?

How hard is it to let a post go through with a mod warning on it? If it's a good post and people get shitty about it fuck them. The warning should be welcomed and then shot down if deemed fit.

If you're worried about people here not listening because of a "tag", then fuck those people. They won't listen with an open mind to truth anyway...and fuck them.

One that, perhaps, is pushing to have higher ranking mods demoted or removed entirely. Something like that.

Sorry for your bullshit...it's bullshit.

/probably the deepest thing I've said on reddit.

It seems like their divide and conquer tactics are working. I've only been on here for a month or so, I was recommended to me by a buddy. He said about a year ago this place was alive with great conversations and links, now it's all infighting, trolls, and division.

Looks like the Powers that Be are winning this one.

Nope not even close.

When the attack comes here from interest groups, they are losing.

When the fucking snakes up top say things like "the internet should have never happened". You are looking at a power that used to be and just lost power and knows it.

This is a battle of slactivism and information.

the reddit source code is OPEN SOURCE. We just need to create a new reddit server on a different domain name run by trustworthy individuals.

divest the mods, 1 lost cannot hurt all.

23 people take an hour a day and let 9000 keep an hour if he wants.

I think he wants to leave and come back when he feels more secure in other areas.

Sounds logical but it's probably a recipe for disaster. Too many chiefs.

Too many chiefs only applies to situations where chiefs have differing visions of outcome and fight amongst themselves for selfish reasons.

This place can elevate beyond that nonsense if well all focus entirely on truth. The very nature of this "conspiracy theorizing" is we are observant enough to see that we are not being told the truth. We are seekers of hidden knowledge, and those who seek will find.

Mods need to fight back it's that simple.

I nominate blacksunalchemy as mod! ;D

lol

Reply to every post. This is how you fight this battle.

Dissect all the layers of indoctrination into falsehood, the fallacy will dissolve.

I'll miss your logo!

Who from. Name and Shame its the way forward

Give me an email address because I could be getting paid for this shit.

Fuck off.

Hey now, nothing wrong with making some cash doing something I currently do for fun.

They have already started slandering you. Why hasn't this sub reddit been banned yet for gaming the system?

http://www.reddit.com/r/conspiratard/comments/yo33b/9000sins_is_calling_it_quits_as_a_mod/

Dude, you've handled the situation amazingly well so far and it would be a shame to lose you. Don't give the trolls what they want, im sure they'd get bored of this organized effort soon, hang in there and we're here for any support!

If you leave, the terrorists win.

Please vote within redetiquette

Vote. The up and down arrows are your tools to make reddit what you want it to be. If you think something contributes to conversation, upvote it. If you think it does not contribute to the subreddit it is posted in or is off-topic in a particular community, downvote it.

Especially in this post Look at the children here. if you want to be informed read all sides that you can

We need a new subreddit.

I was thinking the same thing though I doubt it would take long for the trolls/shills to follow.

We are a much bigger sub than they are, why don't we just troll them? Do exactly what they do here?

Because they ban anyone that doesn't agree with them.

Prove it.

Remember, 9000sins went on a ban spree of people that simply posted in /r/conspiratard.

Please do, I could use the entertainment.

lol Honestly I like you guys here. I like the debate. Some people get to angry with debating people like children who refuse to grow up and see the real world for what it is. I like it.

I too used to think I knew everything, then I grew up.

What is it that makes you not like r/conspiracy? If you don't mind me asking, are you religious?

Because you make up bullshit then try to prop it up with "evidence".

Kind of the same beef I have with organized religion actually...

Gives skeptics a bad name too.

Oh and did I mention how hilarious it is when you get all knotted up in rage about me being a zionist shill?

I agree some dumb shit get posted on their with no real evidence but that's why we have up votes and down votes. Why did you visit r/conspiracy in the first place? Were you interested in some things or did you just come here to troll and call people stupid or whatever? I don't remember ever got knotted up about anything Zionism. I know if you protect Zionism in r/conspiracy you will be called a shill not by me though. I have other names for people like that and I group them together with people like tttottt who are just brainwashed by their Bible. I like tttottt for the most part but he sure does have a hard on for the Jews just like TPTB wanted him too. Keeps his eyes away from the real truth.

Why did you visit r/conspiracy in the first place?

Because paranoia is hilarious.

I once managed to convince a conspiritard blogger that I actually ran "the shadow government" that controlled the world. I got to be king of earth for a week and he ate that stuff up.

You do know everybody on r/conspiracy is not as gullible? Funny stuff no doubt but it's hard for me to believe you came here just because you think paranoia is hilarious. Just not buying that. You say your are not a religious person and I respect that because I'm not either. This is why I don't fall for the Jew lies like most do on r/conspiracy. I still don't like the occupation that's going on in Palestine. How about you?

well, 9000sins thinks I'm NWO. One of the mods is certainly gullible enough.

Sorry to see you go, but I can't say as I blame you. Happy trails, 9.

One less racist in this sub. =]

This pleases me.

Sorry to see you go.

Don't give up! We'll stop sucking as much I promise!

But summer had just ended, it could have been just idiotic school kids who do not realize how the world really is. Things are getting interesting in politics and to lose such a great moderator now feels unnecessary. Whatever you do know that you are always welcome back.

Reasonable point.

Always though 9000SINS was paid disinfo anyway.

They (trolls) keep flagging posts as spam so I have to approve them before they get seen

Reddit doesn't work that way

Yawn, who gives a fuck. It's the internet, go get some fresh air Mod .

please don't go. The troll invasion is no reason to quit. We're a rapidly growing subreddit so of course trolls are bound to take notice. It seems that many of them have the same agenda (make accusations of anti-semitism, whine about everyone being a bigot) Let's just ignore them and carry on.

Sigh

Bye Bye eye of Ra guy.

A sad day for this subreddit.

not really man, this is what success looks like. People immediately try to put you back in subservience. We should be celebrating and posting our asses off right now.

Slam the drums of truth.

Perseverance is providence.

He was contaminated by a dude playing another dude, IMO.

That account got wiped out by TPTB. He started a new account named ImJulianAssange.

From my understanding the account got deleted by an admin. I don't think mods have that much power. You'd really have to ask him to be sure though.

I'm, evidently, the cause of this. So, I doubt it.

Look for texmex's comment and my response thereto. It'll be a good beginning. Also see my ContheorySpiracist post about the invasion. It's divide and conquer, right here, right now. And it exploded when I went full out against the effort to bury the Robert Holmes potential connection to LIBOR last Friday. I'm finding it fascinating to watch, personally.

I'm surprised we haven't made the front page of /r/subredditdrama yet.

They're busy with a conspiracy of their own.

Goddamn those guys take internet points seriously...

Shut the fuck up.

A true inspiration for the children.

Wow, thanks.

That would be good exposure.

I can mod full time.

We can segment into timeslots, of 2 hours 12 per day, it doesnt matter how shitty one person mods, we will learn and grow.

Or just unfettered anarchy with 0 mods.

Whatever happens we need to spread the power of losing 1 mod to being able to lose mods as needed on their terms. No one person can be important.

Doesn't that mean something is going to happen that they desperately don't want people to see? My guess is that right now is the time when we need a mod the most?

How about creating some invincible bots to ban those evil trolls?

Can't you change the subreddit reporting system?

I'm sad to hear this isn't just a lull. I've been here redditing for ... less than 3 monthes and this had become my new goto place for info... but it has declined drastically in the past few weeks. I was hoping that it was just a fluke because it started out awesome. Now it is not. I'm glad to hear 9000sins verify this so it's not just my imagination. One of us must be able to create a defector sub somewhere else that is invite only.

http://conspiratard.net/2012/08/

Someone made a website......

This sub has more trolls than truthers, I could see why mods would want to leave.

Totally understand your situation. Would love you to stick around. You would be sorely missed

Good Luck on turnin the page, You've had good influence here. I don't blame ya "Brother, life's a bitch... and she's back in heat."

DON'T GO.

But if you should ever need us...

All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.

dude! Call for a donation fund to buy yourself a six pack. So many /r/conspiracy peeps can hook you up. Then, assemble a team of forum defenders and spam other pages with good info but i guess it wouldn't be considered spam...more like planting the seeds of good ideas...

...

Thank you.

I worked in marketing for media outlets for many years. I understand this dynamic well enough to give advice based on personal experience. Something I rarely do, I mostly spout off stream of consciousness :P

What you are doing is working. It is working so well you are being overwhelmed. You should change absolutely nothing. Sun Tsu probably says something about holding your ground when the villian is agitating you or rustling around uncomfortably trying to dissent.

Perhaps you should absolutely let the flood gates open and just allow anarchy in this forum for a while. This would be attacking the and more powerful than holding ground.

The people coming here are a) paid to attack and are actually weak foot soldiers or B) New viewers who will eventually see the WHOLE truth. Those are the people you want to be here, letter by letter, line by line, post by post, ah-ha moment after ah-ha moment is the only way.

The science nazi's are with us, they are just heavily indoctrinated into a false paradigm. Honestly if you can break the gap between the hipster atheists paradigm of science and nasa into a route directly to where they can see the withheld truth. If the spiritual warriors do not do this the false flag antichrist will. They just don't believe the BIG lie, they are smart enough to get the million small lies and fallacies that undermine their intellect.

The more posts the bettor, the critical mass is coming, just keep it going for a while guys.

Nonviolence. Truth and Intellect.
Question Authority.
The whole god damn thing IS a scam.

Be ever ready to change strategy according to the changing conditions of the opponent.

--sun tsu

opposite strategy.

If they restrict you unrestrict.

:(

An absolute fucking shame mr 9000SINS. Thank you for your hard work and those other cunts can go fuck themselves.

Death by 1000 cuts huh? I always liked you man, best moderator I've seen on just about any sub.

I was just thinking the same thing.

I sent you a PM awhile ago, about becoming a mod. I'll still be down

Don't do it man, that's what they want you to do.

Yes, but how is Shia LaBeouf involved?

Don't leave, that is what the trolls want. Just ignore them.

9000sins -- "I have been giving a lot of thought to this whole sub in last couple of days. I think I'm going to take the advice of several of the users here and just take a break instead of just quitting. I love place so much. It just really sucks to how hard it can fall even when I'm trying my hardest. I just feel like the wheel is spinning so fast that I can't grab it to take control. I just finally hooked up with the girl I told everyone about, the one that I have waited so many years for. My reality just got a whole lot brighter, so in a way I'm so incredibly happy. I just want to focus more on my real life, and I feel that this is pulling me down most of the time anymore. Don't worry, though. I'm not checking out, just taking some time for me. :)"

YAY!!!

Why converse with anyone? Read the headlines. Think about them. Then go back to your life.

Interacting with others is a social convention. Not a requirement. Silence is golden.

The ZOG machine has won.

You should delete this entire subreddit or lock it.

I was surprised to see you are a mod. Can you elaborate on any pattern to the flagged posts? Are they anti-government in nature or just random?

Mod list on the right

I hope no one thinks I am a troll/shill, I have been trying to post good stuff but I keep getting downvoted to hell every time I have good points. There are a lot of people who are subscribing here that have specific agendas I feel. Anytime Agenda 21 is brought up it gets super downvoted, even though as I have pointed out hundreds of times it is being implemented on a mass scale and the colleges are indoctrinating everyone into the "sustainable development" movement. Idk if people are just so deep into the indoctrination that they don't see the really really obvious Marxism behind it, or if there are trolls seeking this type of post out and downvoting it. If anyone can answer this please enlighten me.

Dont let the terrorists win bro

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

You are by far one of the most paranoid people I have ever dealt with on the net.

And on top of all of this I have someone that I considered to be a good friend here turn their back on me.

That'd be me, if anyone's wondering.

Yes, it was you. He's right.

Of course it is. Did I stutter?

Nope, just confirming you are the "good friend" who turned his back on him.

I saw it.

Congrats, that particular trophy has your name engraved upon it.

Nice going.

Are you sure you want to be the one to instigate the airing of this dirty laundry? I'll be happy to post the PMs he sent me.

Nope. I am just affirming that the information you posted was correct and accurate.

Questions for you to ponder: Who is standing up here taking responsibility for their own life? Who is blaming their own problems on someone else?

Who refused to acknowledge my request to keep all discussion in the open and continued to bombard me with PMs (while this was happening, by the way - you know, you sure didn't have anything to do with it. nosireee).

If you say so.

9000sins thought you were a good friend.

Everyone makes mistakes.

I think we are done here.

A good friend is honest. I was honest. It appears you've chosen sides. Thanks for clearing that up.

Yep. We are clear.

What'd you do?

I don't think it's appropriate to air that dirty laundry. As I said, I hope he works through this in his mind. The trolls got to both of us.

Lol dude you get fuckin downvoted constantly. Doesn't matter what you say.

Yep. And, I'm fairly certain that, in his current state of mind, 9000sins is one of the downvoters.

This username may get pushed out of r/conspiracy, but they'll never push this person out. ;)

I have to be honest with you. I'm sure you are aware that you have a way of wording things that seem abrasive and perhaps even rude. I don't know what PMs were exchanged, but I personally feel like an apology for your "tone" or whatever was necessary.

I absolutely understand your desire to be esoteric with the project. I understand the desire to draw users in and essentially initiate them in so that you can see the loyalty. I get that. I'm just saying that 9000 was your friend, and if he showed a desire to learn more, than you should have just shared the links or any post of interest- you could have asked us to fill him in -- but the long comment about insecurity and whatnot was just uncalled for.

I don't know where it goes from here, brother.

The " impartial voice" has spoken.

The admins have investigated the subreddit. (6 readers, 2 of which are my socks; ~7 users online now). I'll let them make their decision first. If they close it, I move on. If they don't, we continue (whoever "we" turns out to be).

I will not apologize for 9000sins thin skin. He demands a lot of special attention that I don't have time or patience for.

EDIT: As you'll recall, I stated plainly that I intended to add him as a mod later to bust heads. But... that wasn't soon enough for him, he badgered the two of you to badger me into letting him nowgoddamit. So, I did. And in less than 24 hours, he threw his first tantrum. Awww.

Listen, brother. I care about you, and all other parties involved. I also really care about the project we are considering. I realize you have been stalked and downvoted to hell by a cadre this past week...

Perhaps 9000 should know what your demeanor is, and taken your abrasiveness with a grain of salt -- I don't have a clue how well he knows you -- I'm telling you as a friend that you are getting too extreme.

An open-source project cannot work when the key-holder has an initiation process for understanding different aspects of the system. If we were "in" than you should have transparently explained IT ALL to us, in one location, understanding that the coding language was foreign to us. If you worked on this concept for many years, than you shouldn't expect us newbs to completely understand it in less than a week. In that context, your words to 9000 were completely uncalled for... I can understand why he was upset.

A team is like a family, and the family asshole(every family has one) has to know when to show a little bit of welcoming or he won't have a family any longer.

Now is not the time to be tough or unapologetic, the hard-ass uncle who tells the kids that santa clause "fkn aint real" --- It's the time to be the loving teacher that acts in grace and husbandry, cultivating a team so that it organically flourishes. Please think about your words, my friend.

All I asked for was patience. His response was to criticize me further. <-- that triggered my long response. Sorry if you can't see any fault in anyone but me.

"No prob man. I just feel like there are so many details that you know that I do not, and I want to have a better understanding of my involvelment and how it will interact with everyone else."

That is all I saw... was there more to it? To be honest, I didn't think that response is characteristic of a critical response. I think we all understand that you've been really busy defending yourself the past few days. Hell, I understand you're probably on edge.

9000 probably could have looked around the sub and found out all that he needed to, but the searching around was probably somewhat off-putting... You know full well that there were obstacles to really understanding the big picture of what we were doing. Looking back, I feel bad for not PMing him to disclose it all.

Anyway, I just think your response was unnecessarily rude. You could have just as easily asked one of us to explain it to him. Accept my criticism, man up, and apologize(not a half-ass apology) and hope that he'll accept it.

I've gotta get some sleep. You've got this, brother, I want you to really think about what you're saying before you say it.

He pushed to get in. He pushed to get more. I owe him nothing.

I apologize for not being what you want.

Like you said, he was in for about a day and wanted to know what was going on. He could have looked around, but wanted to hear it from you personally. If you were his friend than you should understand that you said something hurtful to him, and take corrective action. Do what you want, brother. Peace.

He could have looked around, but wanted to hear it from you personally.

As with everyone I added after you and FCD, I gave explicit instructions: read the /new queue from the bottom up.

He confessed to not having followed instructions, then wanted instructions. But that's my fault? I don't follow your logic, here, supercede. And, if you care to reread my long rant, I spoke of both him AND FCD badgering me (FCD had been badgering me in PM for a couple hours despite me asking all discussion to take place in threads in the subreddit for all to see and comment on).

There'll be no apology to 9000sins. Look what he did here with it. He made it into r/conspiracy subreddit drama. Wheeee. Ain't this just spiffy?

He was eager to help. I didn't see a tantrum. Just open inquiries.

Just a couple pertinent questions for which he was ridiculed, belittled and then later criticized cheekily as a mod here.

Is it any wonder he is disheartened and wishes to move on?

You built that. Proud of it?

A man that can not admit a mistake never learns from it.

Nor is he a man. Yeah, I'm pissed at you. You blew up something that could have been special because you didn't have time to answer questions to someone trying to assist you. In an effort to make this place better. Ego overrode common sense.

You were too busy fighting trolls to no effect. Again.

Too busy to lend a hand to a brother that needed it. I'm disgusted by your selfishness.

/u/DomesticTerranist, user for 8 days imitating my username. Was this a planned psyop?

I'm disgusted by your selfishness.

Working toward giving my work to the whole world was selfishness, just because I didn't put my whole world on hold to coddle 9000sins? Interesting. I'll have to give it some thought.

There. I gave it some thought. And, I respectfully disagree.


So, which one are you? You must be either an admin, or one of the ones I added (foolishly) to my subreddit.

Show yourself. Oh, right. Nor are you a man.


EDIT: You didn't see a tantrum? You must not have read this post. He's quitting r/conspiracy because of something that happened in MY subreddit.

9000sins: I thought we were friends. Waaaaa.

interceders: He was your friend. you should be ashamed.

No. ImJulianAssange was my friend. He did not have access to the subreddit at the time this happened, because I had already removed him. So, /u/DomesticTerranist isn't my friend.

That is correct, you are not my friend.

Since everyone else is quoting from my private subreddit, I may as well, too, eh?

Alright then. I just asked a question, and you fucking went off. I'm out. I just asked for more details because I don't know what kind of bullshit you are trying to drag me into.

He demanded to be allowed in earlier than I had planned, but I was "dragging him in".

I'm out.

His words. I removed him. He threw a fit and posted this shit. ^

I didn't see any quotes from your private forum.

you didn't read supercede's comments.

Yes, I did actually. Didn't realize he was quoting your forum.

Now I do, thanks for the insight.

Awww. u mad, bro?

Not really. Just disgusted as I said.

Yeah, my shit stinks. See my flair for proof.

Both types of proof duly noted... Flair and behavior.

You've confessed to seeing the content of my subreddit, but you refuse to identify yourself (not that I can't guess who you are). And yet, you have the gall to criticize me, publicly? Oh,.... that's rich. ;)

My actions aren't rich.

Yours are. Feel free to take me on since you know who I am.

The point being, you're not a decent fellow in public or private. Your narrative has been superseded with truth.

Take you on? snicker

Exactly. Because you will fail and it will cost your current account dearly.

And we'll have a new account soon afterwards.

From your past explanations, you see this as stalking.

What it really is about is holding you accountable for betraying friends, deflating an undeserved ego and showing you for what you really are.

An ass. That is full of itself. And tottering precariously as it teeters toward an inescapable oblivion. Pre-planned op?

No, you wrote the script of this play.

I'm not threatened in the least by your intellect or supposed royalty here as a previous mod. You have become a joke that spans more than a few reddits.

Enjoy and own your earned infamy.

Still unwilling to identify yourself, after having created an imitation of my username 8 days ago - almost as if you had planned to eventually slander my character, and opportunity finally knocked. I find that very interesting.

Yes, we are out to get you. We had counted on you being an ass and planned accordingly 8 days ago.

We set you up. We forced you to act as you did. This has nothing to do with your behavior and treatment of others.

You are an innocent beleaguered misunderstood savior.

Just a good guy.

We know your narrative. It's bullshit.

Well, ain't that speshul.

Not really. It's sad and pathetic.

I saw a tantrum. It was thrown by you.

It had disastrous results.

I thought it was ImJullianAssange.

I'm pretty sure the recent PMs I received indicate that it is me.

Drama.

Fill us in?

That would be inappropriate.

Puts away the popcorn, with a sad puppy look on his face

Sorry, I remember something about that user and assumed it was him. My apologies.

[deleted]

Great find. Catching jcm267 in an outright lie.

In case he deletes it, here's his comment just prior to yours:

I've seen conspiracy theorists using outside resources like Twitter to stalk others but never have I seen the "other side" employ any such tactics.

Be sure to save a screenshot of that Twitter comment.

For what purpose?

You have an odd definition of stalking.

Edit:

He's quoting JCM talking about stalkers, as proof that JCM is lying about "our" tactics. So now, below, when he starts ranting about OP not talking about stalking, it's a little confusing. So, my point is that a single twitter post is an odd definition of stalking.

If anyone else is stuck...I don't know if anyone can help you.

OP said nothing about "stalking".

He said:

  • troll invasion has stepped up big time
  • They keep flagging posts as spam so I have to approve them before they get seen.
  • They are gaming posts via twitter

Don't try to put words in his mouth. Interesting that you and jcm267 (both notorious trolls/shills) are claiming he said "stalking".

Edit: I see you've now brought in the downvote brigade of "ratards".

Edit: I see you've now brought in the downvote brigade of "ratards".

Literal brigades

If there's brigades, how come you're at -6?

That's what I want to know.

JCM, who you quoted as proof, said stalking. Soooo

Edit: Either you suck at english or you're over-exciting yourself about a possible conspiracy you think you've uncovered. Or you might just be an idiot. I can't decide. Help me out?

you suck at english

Referring to what?

Referring to how you forgot what you said or possibly can't read. I don't know, you tell me.

I'm supposed to tell you why you think I suck at English???

Typical troll logic.

I think it's interesting that as a subscriber to /r/conspiratard the place I hear about its Twitter feed is /r/conspiracy!

I doubt many people even use it.

I guess /r/worldnews and every other subreddit is trying to game things. LOL get a grip I have a bot running that just throws whatever is on the front page to /r/conspiratard out there. I believe the conspiracy nuts long ago flagged my EPS and conspiratard twitter accounts making them pretty much invisible to everyone except for the paranoid stalker types.

You sure do like bots.

lol, you never get tired of lying to people huh?

I'm not lying, as usual.

Why do you lie a lot lad?

Are you sure you're not just being... ... ...paranoid?

I'd like to see where he gets these ideas. I've seen conspiracy theorists using outside resources like Twitter to stalk others but never have I seen the "other side" employ any such tactics.

I've seen friendfeed that seems to post comments of you and your associates.

Examples please.

Make me a mod.

See ya

BANG!...thud.

Most of the trolls are Nazi and Hitler worshipers, they also hate Jews even though they claim they don't and just cheer for Zionism which is against Jewish religion and tradition, they cheer tyranny, they cheer killing children in the middle east and Africa.

You can't let these devil worshipers win, but hey if you must go I can step in.

Could it be possible the nature of a troll is to incite a reaction, therefore said topics..?

It is possible. In fact, it's likely.

I was being a bit of a smart-ass, sarcasm intended.

Clearly OP is tired of brand new shiny accounts, such as yours, hardcore trolling

I know you just got downvoted to hell while asking a legitimate question, but don't worry about it. Karma doesn't mean shit anyway. Just read the comments and you'll get filled in.

Getting downvoted restricts your ability to comment and dictates how visible your comment or submission is. So it's a little bit more complicated.

Looks like somebody got banned earlier. :(

They trolled us both, heavily this past week or so. I went ballistic at them. He went ballistic at me (with this post, above). It's divide and conquer. I hope 9000sins works through this in his mind. Meanwhile, I'm glad illuminatedwax and biomassive both outrank him in his moment of weakness.

I visit Godlikeproductions, though it's not troll free either.

/u/DomesticTerranist, user for 8 days imitating my username. Was this a planned psyop?

I'm disgusted by your selfishness.

Working toward giving my work to the whole world was selfishness, just because I didn't put my whole world on hold to coddle 9000sins? Interesting. I'll have to give it some thought.

There. I gave it some thought. And, I respectfully disagree.


So, which one are you? You must be either an admin, or one of the ones I added (foolishly) to my subreddit.

Show yourself. Oh, right. Nor are you a man.


EDIT: You didn't see a tantrum? You must not have read this post. He's quitting r/conspiracy because of something that happened in MY subreddit.

He pushed to get in. He pushed to get more. I owe him nothing.

I apologize for not being what you want.

Why labor day? I could see things getting better after the election, I could see some of the shills interested in opinion manipulation disappearing then. I sure hope that what happens.

I suspect being an active mod here drains you to a degree. Perhaps the answer is to take a break from the heat to replenish energy rather than quitting.

I suggest you all go to Something Awful and post all about your findings. They take this shit serious over there.
