He sent me his picture… [http://fathom.org/teemingmillions/John1.jpg](http://fathom.org/teemingmillions/John1.jpg) A couple of years ago he sent me his picture as “Cyberian” [http://fathom.org/teemingmillions/cyberian2.jpg](http://fathom.org/teemingmillions/cyberian2.jpg) Obviously the same man.

I’m genuinely disturbed to learn that he’s an adult. Everything in the tone and quality of his posts suggested to me that he was fifteen or sixteen. Maybe he posts drunk or something? ---

posted 11-09-1999 04:49 PM by John john AKA Cyberian I think you need to give the obsession with this man, Cyberian, a break. Please post where I claimed to have ANY intimate knowledge about this person? Also, what post are you inventing on the AOL-SDMB that “blows my cover”? Produce what you are talking about. ---

Here’s another one: **Point of order. This board, its Members, Moderators and Administrators have my word that I was NEVER THOSE PEOPLE, nor have I EVER posted under those screen names AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON. There are some on this board that know that to be a fact.** His bolding. ---

I thought EVERYONE knew that “John John” was “Cyberian” and “JOHN” etc … I didn’t get to see his vociferous denial of that fact, but it was certainly a direct challenge to our collective memory! Like the older pic … does he work in a shoe store, a la Al Bundy? ---

This board, its Members, Moderators and Administrators have my word that I was NEVER THOSE PEOPLE, nor have I EVER posted under those screen names AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON. There are some on this board that know that to be a fact. As is the case with so much on these boards, AND IN LIFE NO DOUBT, you missed, no surprise, the point of that post. I stand by that post and every word in it. I HAVE NEVER POSTED TO THESE BOARD UNDER ANY OTHER SCREEN NAME. Do you seriously think for one minute that I did not think Opalcat would post that pic to these boards? Duh. Wally, you either have to keep up or move over.

John John, > [@](#): > > We’ve noticed. and > [@](#): > > Son! Nice to be in touch again. I think what you _meant_ to say was: > [@](#): > > I’m sorry that I have wilfully and consistently lied to you all over the last few weeks. Please understand that this is the product of my deep-seated personal inadequacies: you should pity me rather than hate me. I am a sad and lonely individual with neither the wit nor the intelligence to enter into or sustain meaningful relationships with members of either sex in real life. Indeed, I am such an arsehole that when I am posting to a message board such as this, I need continually to change and adopt false personae as other posters quickly realise what a pitiful waste of space I am. > > That fact that I am also a mysoginist and a racist also makes it difficult for me to relate to a large proportion of the human race. > > I shall now crawl back under the rock whence I came, never to trouble you again under this or any other name.
