This is my final thread. Goodbye.
[quote name="discuss."]Greetings. I would just like to say that I won. I will be leaving this website after this post, <i>and I won.</i> I first became aware of Caltrops in the winter of 2008. I mostly lurked, poking my head out here and there, content to absorb the content rather than contribute. However, one thing constantly irritated me about the site - Jhoh and Jsoh Cable. It wasn't just that their posts were worthless. Those could be ignored. It was that they were smug about it. It's okay to be "living garbage," as I said before, as long as you're aware of it. Jhoh and Jsoh seemed to think they were better than people, and I guess that's what was so fascinating. My goal was to create a persona that would cause them to go crazy, and I'll be honest -- I thought it would be much more difficult than it was. Everything I wrote they attributed to Worm (or "wrom") and Charity Man. (In fact, when Charity Man started posting again, I briefly panicked: I wanted to toy with the Cables all by myself. I was thrilled when the twins thought we were all the same person.) It really doesn't take much. Post in lower case, avoid correcting typos and hit enter a lot and the Cables will respond every single time. I'm fairly certain that you will never find me. The website I frequent uses custom software, like Caltrops (no, not PlanetCrap) but most of the action is in PMs, so Google searches will never reveal it. Towards the end, a few of my friends were posting under the "discuss." name (one of them forgot the period the other day) and for a bit we really thought we were caught. But each and every time, Jsoh would immediately respond with "wrom" and the tension disappeared. We are =still= all curious if the Cables have jobs. It only happened twice, but we did take bets on response time. We had to stop when Jsoh would respond within five minutes or less in the middle of the night. He would respond so fast nobody would bother betting on anything other than the first two or three minutes. We never figured out his sleep patterns, and there is debate as to whether he has a job. One of us thinks he's slept with a woman, but only =one=, which is equally embarrassing. Our favorite posters are Zsenistan, Quentinbec and I need clarification. There is debate as to the worst posters, besides the twins. Usually it's Mr. 3000 and Mysterious Stranger, but Jsoh blows both of those away. Anyway, you've all been delightful, except for Jsoh and Jhoh Cable. You two are stupid faggots, but you know that already. I'm going to win the last few bucks in the PayPal account depending on how you respond to this. I feel really bad that the rest of you have to live with them. If the site continues to decline as I suspect it will, I will post a link to our forum, which is pretty good and "Cable-free." (It's possible to be laid back and still eliminate GameFAQ idiots. Promise. Swear to God. You'll see. :) [/quote]
