Ariong posted:I took a look at the list of Most Ignored users. The top two are accounts that have been deleted from the forums entirely, which I didn’t even know was possible. They both have an insane 20053 people ignoring them, which makes me think it must be the same account listed twoce, or perhaps two accounts that were used for testing the Ignore List feature. Maybe all the threads they posted in got deleted permanently?

And that one guy was deleted cause the username was just a whitespace so it messed up the forums every time they posted. Solice Kirsk posted:Jumping into long threads is easy. Just read the OP, read the middle page, then skip to the next to last page and go from there. Anything even remotely interesting that happened in it will be mentioned at least 3 times with a few days. This is pretty good advice and I'm sad it took me so long to figure it out. My only suggestion is read the last 2 pages before you post; depending on the thread of course. Nude has a new favorite as of 01:14 on Apr 18, 2018 |

Good example of looking but not touching (except for some genuine encouragement) being best for people who come across as unusual online. He was diagnosed with ASD and OCD I believe but I could be wrong. He's seriously an inspiration, how many people do you know confronted their worst fears and won?

Well your average internet weirdo probably has no intention on ever changing and blames everybody else for their problems. Ulillillia at least admits to himself that he's freaking weird and has serious issues. That's the first step and a lot further than a hell of a lot of people get. He went to the next step of "Imma work on this poo poo." Seems like he's also always been completely harmless so it's like hey man, you do you, you know what I'm saying? Granted in his case being weird but harmless is fine; it's his crippling OCD that I'm glad he's getting help with and working through. That can't be fun at all to deal with.

I think that shows that people who claim bullying is good for kids and builds character or whatever are full of poo poo tbh. Uli didn't have a crowd of people following him around trying to get him to jerk off on webcam, he had a moment of realization of his own and made changes in his life. Meanwhile Chris still has a dedicated organization tracking minute changes to his shirt collection.

Chris Chan is pretty awful but he'd be a few notches closer to normal if he didn't have a giant hatebase of deranged assholes dedicated to harassing him for years, there's no excuse for the way he was treated and it's kinda hard to find funny in retrospect. Apart from the thing with the man in the pickle outfit anyway

Chris never deserved the internet hate machine pile-on, but him are uli are entirely different in that Uli just shrugs off any trolls and chris goes/went to absurd lengths to engage with them. The whole chris-chan thing is utterly fascinating in a horrific way. Its just this spiral of terrible people trolling a pretty lovely person and its just misery all the way down.

Apart from the thing with the man in the pickle outfit anyway I know people who have had real world interactions with Chris. He’s always been a hostile weirdo who got arrested and banned from places for years before the trolling started. The Sonichu comics even have fictionalized depictions of stuff like getting arrested in Target.

Yeah, I used to be on there back in like 2012. I thought he was a really weird mental case, basically a case study on what happens when an autistic guy gets coddled and prevented from ever having to excel or do anything uncomfortable by his elderly parents and then gets caught up in a bunch of bizarre Internet stuff. He’s fascinating from the standpoint of how he developed into what he is today. I left long before it became Kiwi Farms and got obsessed with doxxing regular people for the crime of being SJWs. But I actually do know people in that area who know Chris said personally and have spent time with him, so I don’t just base everything on sonichu.com.

Okay, and I hate to preface this with “I am absolutely not trying to derail or start poo poo in the saga thread,” but I thought Chris-chan is a woman/uses she/her pronouns? I usually only knows the fringes of these dramas just from the sheer amount of time spent online in general and there’s no reliable way I know of to confirm these things because of the gross stalkers that clog up searches for any real info.

Chris-chan came out as transfeminine a few years ago, IIRC. You can guess how well the gangstalkers respected that.

This comes up a lot, but I never really talk about it due to the derails it causes. What I'll say is that knowing people who have met and hung out with Chris as well as what's been compiled on the Internet (and having a transgender brother, friend, and coworkers, so I'm personally familiar with the subject), Chris has an extremely warped view of gender, gender roles, and sexuality that's influenced his decisions, some of which have involved doing some seriously harmful stuff. Chris needs therapy. A lot.

Chris Chan is more a disturbing case study on internet stalkers. I mean they rummaged through the wreckage of his burned down house for souvenirs, seriously creepy. It doesn't take a neurodivergent person to have stalkers find something to latch onto. Even the most benign goon could get the creepy Truman Show treatment.

He’s fascinating from the standpoint of how he developed into what he is today. Can you explain why exactly Chris Chan is fascinating? You said a bunch of stuff here but I've never been able to figure out why hundreds of people have a 24/7 running commentary on everything he does down to how much gas he gets whenever he is driving between two places or the specifics of his dinner. SA discovered Chris Chan and we made fun of how weird sonichu was for awhile, then we found out people were obsessively cataloging his shirts so we made fun of them, then some people here started becoming obsessed with his every breath and they had to be ran off. I just don't see what it is about this one mentally ill person that causes so many people to make the jump to being even more mentally ill than the target. You are fondly talking about your years of monitoring his life and your insider knowledge about his family and how fascinating he is. He was fascinating enough to get a thread here for awhile until everyone learned what sonichu was and had a chance to laugh at it. That doesn't then justify a decade of extreme gangstalking. I just don't get it. Is it a nostalgia thing? Like Chris Chan was the first internet horror story to a lot of people at a impressionable time in their lives? Like someone's first MMO or cartoon series or whatever? Now they are in their 30s going through his garbage and recounting the entire life of his entire extended family because nothing will ever be like him to them? I'm not trying to attack you or anything I've just wanted to ask Chris Chan people what the deal was for years now and I've never met anyone that actually cared.

You said a bunch of stuff here but I've never been able to figure out why hundreds of people have a 24/7 running commentary on everything he does down to how much gas he gets whenever he is driving between two places. Well for one, it wasn't "years of monitoring his life". I didn't discover Chris until long after all the most infamous trolling stuff like the Pickle Man happened and he had temporarily abandoned the Internet and I was off that site before he really started doing more stuff. I never participated in anything like trolling or going to his town. When I say I know people who know him, that means I'm actually friends with people who have been in the area and have maintained contact with him, not weird stalker trolls. There's only one person from that old board that I still stay in touch with, and the ones who stayed as it became Kiwi Farms went along with obsessing over regular trans people or posting every single tweet by Voidburger. In terms of "fascinating", I don't give a poo poo about cataloging his shirts or the exact composition of the posters on his wall. What I found really interesting is the path his life and brain took from birth to now. I had taken psychology classes around that time, and there's not really anyone whose life is documented in such detail that you can actually see how a normal autistic kid from Virginia ended up a psychotic wreck. He's incredibly bizarre due to a lot of different factors as he grew up, and he was doing some of his weirdest stuff before he ever became a troll's plaything. As a new psychology student, he was really unique.

chitoryu12 posted:I didn't discover Chris until long after all the most infamous trolling stuff like the Pickle Man happened and he had temporarily abandoned the Internet and I was off that site before he really started doing more stuff. Two questions. 1. Do you think “The Pickle Man” is something that is common knowledge, to the extent that no explanation is required? 2. Do you think that it is normal to keep enough tabs on how often someone uses the internet that you can tell when they have decided to change their internet use habits? If yes to either, perhaps you should consider that your idea of what is an acceptable level of information to compile about a person you do not know is skewed. Because this: chitoryu12 posted:In terms of "fascinating", I don't give a poo poo about cataloging his shirts or the exact composition of the posters on his wall.
