An Insightful DD Post - Dennis Ruhl - 12-03-2008
"by Jack on Wed Dec 03, 2008 1:46 am
It's probably no surprise that there hasn't been much action at dlwhatever recently. It's just got to be really difficult to keep posting when you've got nothing to say. Added to that, they're probably both out doing their Christmas shopping. Remember, when you're buying those new mittens the preferred color is teal. Jack

I've always had doubts about men who know what colour teal is.

Jack Tracey takes a break from posting those silly links and says something stupid.
Maybe he should just stick with the links? It's a strategy that has worked for Ted Heiks for several years.

Oh yes, we should have here one of the countless ninety-eight page threads that they do on degreeinfo and degreediscussion...perhaps giving extended coverage and thus publicity to a degree mill under the pretext of criticizing it...
Or the countless ninety-nine pages threads talking nonsense in pig latin or exchanging virtual blows over minutiae.
Better yet, spin a ninety-nine pages thread after some deviant, gay teen pornographer, financial fraud or other internet quack posts a link and discusses maxima moralia...

Or who wear mittens.
Too bad Jack the Kipper wasn't exercising such severe scrutiny when he signed on as a moderator at a site run by pornographers. Or maybe he was.

"There is more going on.
Some businesses are hurt as a result of sites like this and they are looking for retaliation and possible ways to silence some individuals on sites like this.
Harassment is one tactic of many, the less know persons who post here and on other sites are been followed and maybe targeted for retaliation. One friend of my suspected that he was followed by people connected to credential evaluation service in CA State because they lost some oversea clients due to postings about them. As he was walking from a meeting in the school where his daughter is attending a man followed him and another waited on the corner of the street. He used his phone to take pictures and he went to local police and also contacted FBI. He is no longer visiting or posting on boards.
Eric"
I know the guys name. It was Huffman, the only guy who I know of on DI/DD who had people stalked.
Oh yes. The guy should pay his bookie.

This guy Eric sounds like a first-class paranoid jerkoff. I don't know how his assinine story has anything to do with DL Truth except for the fact that he posted it in a DD thread about DL Truth.
DD thread about DL Truth
Denver made an intelligent post in which he observed that much of what takes place here falls within the realm of satire and humorous commentary on the DL world. We are about exposing hypocrisy in DL and often the only way we can do that is by pointing out contradictions between the public statements of some of the major figures and their actions. While we sometimes have a little fun with it, by and large our analysis is correct.
Bear made some observations that can't be dismissed completely. Personally I was a little uncomfortable with the stuff about Gollin's daughter, and I wasn't even around when Uncle J's credit card info was posted. Some people, but I'm not one, may even be a little squeamish about this site re-telling the Mark Israel incident. Fair enough, we can agree to disagree.
However, factual observations about Gus' financial morass, Huffman's stalking campaign against Derek Smart, Bear's affiliation with L.I.A.R, Chip's porno ties, Bruce the Cop's weight problem, etc. all seem legitimate. These people are all public DL figures who say one thing but whose actions seem inconsistent with those positions.
What the cretins at DD won't acknowledge is how DL Truth has also gone after "our own" when warranted. Case in point is how John Dovelos was banned from this forum's spiritual predecessor, Jamesville, for his continued millish activities.

I really love the 'collective feelings' on the internet...
Yes, at times internet thugs get theirs back, like the old mobile home goat who posed as a Commando character online, and had his trailer set ablaze by a Hispanic immigrant coming to exact revenge over an internet feud.
I always say: be careful...today's friend, tomorrow's foe who won't hesitate to use whatever he knows about you to ridicule, hurt or attack you.

That's not just an Internet lesson -- that's a life lesson.
One of the most difficult things to do when slapped is to not slap back. One of the most difficult things to do when slapping back is to slap only as hard as one was slapped and not pull out the ammunition one gathered in confidence.
Human nature is ugly. The Internet makes it uglier possibly because whatever human face it has "in person" -- whatever inhibitions we have when we can see the damage we do -- all but disappears when we're just slappping grocery lists of monikers and pseudonyms.
Cynicism, I have learned, is a good thing. Dogs will eat dogs. Humans will eat dogs. Humans will eat humans. Gestures resembling kindness are often perfumed self-interest.
But a cup of coffee -- there's something I still believe in. If it's a good cup of coffee. With cream. Especially in the morning.

I was banned from a small, unknown free site in 2008 (?).
The reason probably is I criticized the 'guru' of the site's admin, a mentally challenged midget who'd periodically send distress PM asking for money he was strapped for, couldn't afford the domain, had failed his CPA exam for the third time, hoped to start working soon etc...
What is singular is that many members of the small site had complimented me and a moderator had asked me publicly to write a book on the subject...
Of course the public excuse was the usual degreeinfo bullcrap, but this time I happened to be a MURDERER and a TERRORIST, too.
Once I was banned, all the people who had asked me to write books; all the people who had always agreed with me; all the people I had wasted time supporting because they were feeling down...all sixfigures neurosurgeons and mountbanks suddenly rallied behind the 'funny' peanut running the show...which raises doubts about how credible 50yo neurosurgeons (or stock brokers or whichever tale they spun that time ) might be to stand to attention when some bum snaps at them...
What if I had divulged sensitive or private details during the buddying stage?
After all they always agreed with me and wanted me to write a book, right?
I witnessed very ugly outcomes of these 'online friendships' going down the drain...lifestyles, income, physical appearance, jobs, families...all was dragged into a never ending mud fest.
No, thanks.
