From what I can tell, it's like this: He announced he was closing his shoutbox in a rage because he was pissed off at something he thought I'd said, even though I was offline. Then he did actually close it in a rage. Then I pointed out that I seemed to be able to get him to rage even when I am not online. Then he had another rage about the fact that I'd claimed credit for his previous rage, which he also claimed wasn't a rage at all. Can anyone add anything to that? I'm starting to lose track, and also the will to live.

After getting Gary to close his shoutbox in a rage, despite me not actually being online at the time, I'm off to bed.

Yeah, this was the dilemma last night. Luckily some of the more regular and 'senior' posters on there stepped up to the plate and did what needed to be done. I just watched from the sidelines and offered support where I could. The poster concerned posted quickly this morning to let everyone know he was ok....he is terribly ashamed and apologetic but he needn't be. I have no doubt that the forum almost certainly saved his life. It's a sobering thought which, for once, has left me a bit short of any valid comment to make.

This is something I've read about happening many times, but until late last night I never saw it actually happen on a forum I'm a member of... I'm reading a quite a busy forum that I'm a member of, I don't post there all that much, but someone has had a thread going about depression for some weeks. Late last night he says he's got some tablets and some alcohol and he's had enough so he's going to down the lot. A series of ever more incoherent posts ensues, followed by silence. Some amateur sleuthing then goes on as members attempt to discover where he might be...he'd posted his real name at one point some years ago which helped. Eventually some possible locations are posted, someone tells the police, and a couple of members who are actually police get involved and move it forwards. This morning it transpires he is ok, police and ambulance found him and took him to hospital. He was in a bad way but was brought round and is now back home. A happy outcome but it was all pretty terrifying at the time. You just 'know' when these things are real and when they are fake, and this most definitely real. Shook me up a bit. Upsetting that people get themselves into that sort of state. Anyone else ever seen this sort of thing go on on any forum they've been a member of?

"No more screenies for you" says Gary. Ironically, I took a screenshot of it. [ATTACH=full]540._xfImport[/ATTACH]

Look at you all. Acting like your all little children in a playground trying to gang up on one person']egosoft.com :: View topic - I SOMETIMES WISH!!!. "Look at you all. Acting like your all little children in a playground trying to gang up on one person." He could have said that today, not 14 years ago. He never changes.

Yep, it was posted in his shoutbox yesterday, by his actual GTB account.

He's attempting to 'get his own back' because I posted two links to the well known fake 'mrgtb' Twitter accounts. These were very common knowledge at the time and I genuinely had no idea he'd get into a mad rage over me posting them. He's quite hilarious, you can troll him even when you're not actually trying to. And better still, I had only been talking about his old mrgtb.com domain, it was GARY who brought up the fake Twitter accounts so I posted the links....now he's gone into a rage about it and dug a load of ancient faked shit up about me that I don't give a shit about. He can give it, but he can't take it.

I notice that once again he is trying to make it look like lots of completely random people have found his site and decided to randomly join in conversations about a group of people on a completely different site. Exactly who does he think he is fooling with this nonsense?

Gary: If you're going to try and pretend that your shoutbox replaces words with asterisks like the one here.....don't accidentally let go of the shift key while you're typing the message: [ATTACH=full]516._xfImport[/ATTACH]

By including my name and the name of my site - yet again - he is hoping I'll be curious as to what is really being said...even though it's just a row of asterisks. He is deluded if he thinks anyone falls for his games.

Yes, it's fake. Some of it is literally copied directly from here, asterisks and all.

Gary having a bit of a meltdown again. I keep getting a mention, predictably. He's the only person I can troll without me actually doing anything. I don't even need to be near a computer. [ATTACH=full]515._xfImport[/ATTACH]

I'd love to claim the credit but none if that was me. Gary obviously thinks it was, but then he always does. Grand job, whoever it was.

More rage, this time referring to me as an alcoholic again (even though I don't drink) but spoofing the asterisked out chat messages on here. You can just tell it gets to him. But, in all seriousness, and forgetting the nonsense content he's posting....just WHAT is that site actually trying to be? Is it just WBB suite with the forum component turned off or something? The whole layout is counter-intuitive cluttered confusing nonsense.

I don't think Sandyvag's attempt to get the db credentials was too clever though. There's no need to go that far. Gary makes himself look silly without anything like that going on.

So now his entire site consists of: One member (himself) One shout (only visible to members) No forum posts at all He gets two sign ups in the past two weeks, both of which he has deleted. Beggars belief, except that it doesn't because it's Gary.

This is Gary all over. Wants people to join his forum....tries to punish people who don't....but then bans people who do. This time it's for 'hiding your online status on a totally different forum', and 'sharing chats (that were public anyway)'. Gary is a psychiatrist's field day.

Gary didn't 'do the same thing'. He simply covered up each complete shout with a no permission error. Anyone can do that. The point about what was done here is that it is masing individual letters, not entire shouts, and then leaving certain words exposed. Far superior, and the fact there is a minor issue with cached edits doesn't change that.

After having a good larf at Gary pretending he's got loads of 'guests' hanging on his every word, I'm off out.
