| Concerning Elon 1990 (not a joke thread)
ChaoticWindz3r0: so uh....why exactly is it that people think you';re creepy? im not saying i do im jsut wondering
Elon1990: I do not know why. Maybe because I am so quick to want to make friends
ChaoticWindz3r0: yeah...well that and the offering to send FIE equipment
ChaoticWindz3r0: and wanting them to tkae picutes
ChaoticWindz3r0: no offense
ChaoticWindz3r0: but that does sound sorta weird
Elon1990: I thought about it. I could not afford to do it
ChaoticWindz3r0: haha im not sure many people could
Elon1990: I wish I could appologize to people
ChaoticWindz3r0: are you blocked from fnet?
Elon1990: no, I do not think soChaoticWindz3r0: you could always post a thread
ChaoticWindz3r0: like "Elon 1990 here"
"hey everyone, I just want to aplogize for being seeming like a pervert. I jsut want to make friends. No i cannot afford to send FIE sets. Please, give me another chance"
Elon1990: Yeah, but would people listen
ChaoticWindz3r0: maybe put in one of those sad smileys
ChaoticWindz3r0: 1 second
Elon1990: sure
Thus it came to be that i speak on his behalf. Not saying you have to unblock him or anything, i jsut felt like being semi generous today |

| 1. I don't see what you're saying on his behalf.
2. He is a sexual predator, a manipulator, and a liar, so thanks for saying I don't have to unblock him.
3. You are clearly not fully aware of the situation. |

| time goes fastxx: if you dont mind me asking... how old are you?
Elon1990: Does age matter
Elon1990: I am 39 if it bothers you
time goes fastxx: ok just wondering
Elon1990: I am only looking for friends
time goes fastxx: ok you've made that obvious...
time goes fastxx: but it does seem odd that you'd try to find friendship with a 14 year old girl
time goes fastxx: just putting that out there
Elon1990: When
time goes fastxx: now...
Elon1990: I did not know how old lady is.
time goes fastxx: dude... you asked me what grade in high school I was
time goes fastxx: that does imply age
time goes fastxx: so I'm sorry if that does come off as a bit pedophillic to me
Elon1990: why should age matter
time goes fastxx: cause your 39 and I'm a minor
time goes fastxx: thats why
Elon1990: yes but I am only trying to be a friend
time goes fastxx: ok but look... it can be taken as quite creepy for a nearly 40 year old man to try to befriend a 14 year old girl
time goes fastxx: I'm just saying
time goes fastxx: it usually doesn't happen
time goes fastxx: theres other fencers on the forum closer to your age
time goes fastxx: talk to them
Alright I'll admit I might have been in a bit of a mood but its still just plain creepy, alright. | |

| Believe Me If you Wish
I am sick and tired of people making me out to be a liar and a pedaphile, but believe me when I say this, I am sorry for the misunderstanding. You can take it for what it is worth.
As you know it is difficult to tell how old someone is through talking to them through any Instant Messanger feature. If I talked to someone who is young it was because I am a person who is interested in making friends no matter what a person's age. Sometimes I would just radomly IM somone to see if anyone is online. That is the plain truth.
Anyway I wanted to say I am sorry to all the people I have had any altercations

Trust me, it really is as simple as that.
And also, if you people don't want to talk to this guy then don't. I think it's unfair to post a private conversation. If threatened or harassed then bring matters to the police.

You're a ****in gay pervert.

You're a ****in gay pervert. | In case anyone was wondering, D+F+P is STRAIGHT. He doesn't want men, and all you gay guys need to STAY AWAY, because he wants WOMEN.
Elon1990 is pretty creepy but your homophobia is obnoxious, too. Everyone here knows you're straight. Christ.

| There are a few things I still don't understand.
1. What is this Elon1990 person? No one has ever mentioned him on the forum before, ever.
2. How is he "creepy"? Can someone post an actual conversation with him? I want to see exactly what was said by all parties. No one has done this yet.
3. Why aren't there more threads on this issue? We only have one about every month or so. We should try to get that a bit higher. Perhaps Craig can add a new button next to "Start New Thread" that says "Start New Thread About Elon1990" so that we can make more of them faster.
5. I think that continued conversation is always a good solution to what people consider possible sexual harassment, but why doesn't everyone talk to him more? I know when there's a slightly creepy, possibly dangerous person talking to me in real life, I talk to him every chance I can get. Ignoring or "blocking" him would be absurd! | |
