At least Fishmech's gimmick of having terrible opinions about everything is generally more applicable to the conversation at hand than Three Olives' schtick of being the living embodiment of every gay stereotype ever combined with that one bitch on the board of the HOA you can't stand.

It was Twisty. He posted a thread about assassinating John McCain at some point and that got the FBI's attention.

Marvelous Twisty posted:

other highlights include

-because i edited the op to goatse, the fbi printed out a post of someone who quoted the original post. the post that the guy made was "You're gay."

- fbi asking what a goon was

- me describing goatse to the fbi men

I noticed it was starting to come back late January/early February. My guess is that it coincides with the Seattle Seahawk's run to the Super Bowl, and the possibility their head coach Pete Carroll may be a 9/11 truther.

You can't help but feel sorry for some of the weird poo poo the FBI has to deal with due to the Internet. I'm going to quote something from the Space Station 13 thread as another example;

(For context; Dr. Cogwerks is one of the game's server admins and coders)

Dr. Cogwerks posted:

Some weirdo was making rapey and creepy comments in game one night at about one AM. I yelled at them, they responded with a couple weird cryptic messages and then this, roughly: "well thanks for all the fun times here, i've got my rifle loaded and i'm gonna be shooting up a school full of kids in the morning, so this is goodbye"

User key was his first initial and last name with a number, that same account name was also used by a certain college student's blog and google+ page. Found his city and college from those, and the IP address he was playing from matched the ip registry for that college. Submitted the admin log, ip and timestamps to the FBI's online tips form, got several frantic calls back from city police and FBI agents over the next several hours and ended up getting calls from various detectives and fbi agents every hour or so from one am to three pm. No goddamn sleep.

Dude's dorm room was raided and he was arrested within about three hours of his comments, dorm was searched, computer taken to forensics, all that jazz. I dunno what happened past that though. I did have to write up some incident reports and attach a whole bunch of supplementary text and pictures about what ss13 is, how we log player communications and login info, how people find the game, how people register for the game, and a whole bunch of other stuff like that. Somewhere there's a screenshot in an FBI evidence folder showing a bunch of regular players farting, because it was impossible to find any portion of the game chat panel WITHOUT farting.

goddamn you all

It's just... 9/11 was fourteen years ago. I was worried that a sequel or gritty reboot had come out recently and I totally missed it.

On a lot of forums/websites, this is not true, but on Something Awful where you have to pay 10 dollars to sign up it's especially not true. Just because it's been a while since something happened does not mean the younger general population doesn't know about it especially if it was something incredibly noteworthy. That's why people are still making loss.jpg jokes in 2015, because there are kiddos out there that still find it funny.
