Well I guess the spammer from yesterday, who was posting the juvenille obscene spam, was not a kid, as we supposed, but an irate troll who's been banned.
A more subtle and insidious troll would not have done what he did.

I don't think SUBTLE ALWAYS equals high IQ
nor LACK OF SUBTLTY ALWAYS equals low IQ.
Lots of bright folks scream like ignorant, clueless, dimwitted idiots constantly. Watch CSPAN 1 & 2.
But some women like to post much about child rape, crime and punishment (posts before the tantrums). In certain feminist circles, participants frequently heat themselves into a rage with such discussions.

True enough.
But I think there's a particular slant, perspective when they do which is not this kid's.
They understand how things work, how to set it up, and make it come through in a wad... cunning, at the least, stupid, maybe, but not dumb.

Well put.
IIRC, that was the fate of the #1 email "mass-marketer" (i.e. spammer) in Russia. I seem to recall reading an article about it (probably on SlashDot) that the guy had been beaten to death.

Why is that soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo easy to understand and empathize with--the beatER in this case!?
He was particularly vile.
Anyone wishing to do some sleuthing . . . might check out the anger represented on occasion on

IF anyone does and recognizes a certain flavor of rage etc. on the part of a particular poster, then it might not be my and another FREEPER'S imagination--you might let admin know.
Eschoir was . . . a lot of unpleasant things.
But I have a hard time seeing him stoop THAT low.
His resourcefulness shows clearly that he's not dumb. He's rather clever.
But he's immature and has some cluelessness in several areas.
He clearly does not care about or anticipate well consequences to his actions. That speaks much more of immaturity, to me, when coupled with his cleverness.
I'm not saying he's a genius. He's just not dumb as a rock.
It would be strange, though, for a "kid" to post so many articles about child molestation cases and complain about lax treatment of offenders just before posting the vulgar, childish-looking spam. He or she even complained in the later obscene posts about being banned for posting the previous rage rants and duplicates about the issue. One of the posts just before the spam started was an extremely long list of links to news stories about molestation cases with a complaint from the poster about prison terms being too short. The user was banned for that post and immediately proceded to post the morbid, vulgar spam.
And, IMO, many DV advocates commonly exhibit outbursts like those we've seen here. Quite a few of them are known to have come from disfunctional families and to have been drawn to the work by their own experiences.
Dr. Richard Gelles shut down a discussion on DV during the '90s, because advocates (social workers, psychologists, lawyers and others) got out of hand. ...but not before a lawyer and a judge among them were successfully sued for their false allegations and threats against family rights advocates. Gelles formally concluded a research report done by him and his assistants then, that feminist research and reports were subjective and biased. It was the turning point in his studies.
;-)
Or it could be that an angry DV advocate has a son who took over for him or her.
I was a mere Lurker when he had his plug pulled...
BTW, subpoenas can issued for ISP records to reveal individuals behind IP addresses at given times. If the offenses/damages we've seen persisted enough to constitute a hassle, the antagonist will be known in time.

You make excellent points. And, you seem much more current, up on such things than I am. You and MadIvan are probably quite correct that the person is older. Would be interesting to find out. Please let me know if you ever do.
Possible, I suppose
imho, he ought to have a lot more than his plug pulled.
True.
My main interest would be if he was . . . a certain very angry, foul teen from that other website who had a kind of terminal hostility to my Christianity.
I think the pathologies related to hideously poor parenting resulting in his off the scale rage have impacted him much more in such matters than the alcohol or drugs.
He was about 80% or more that way to me openly on that forum when it was against the rules. But because the forum moderators were UK and Aussie flaming liberals also hostile to my Christianity etc. they affirmed him and egged him on, if anything. He's very, very, very hostile because of a father he characterizes publicly as being very, very abusive while claiming to be a Roman Catholic.
I hope it's not him. If it's him, then he's gone much further over the cliff from any semblence of rationality etc. But the degree of rage and hostility is somewhat similar.
And, he or someone very like him sent me some pinged posts that were mostly pulled before I read them--but a friend who is a FREEPER and who was also on the alien-ufos forum saved the posts and let me read them. Very hideous stuff. Left me hoping whoever it was, was not in my county else I'd be looking over my shoulder constantly.
Whoever this is, is very likely a very evil, sick, probably possessed individual.
