I joined 12/13/11. So the very end of 2011.
I joined around the year 2000. It wasn't until 2005 when Deron joined the Jazz that the wise-*** people came aboard, those from Illinois and that region who were fans of Deron. A lot too were fans of Jerry. I never had problems with people on the site until then, when the tone of things changed because of their aggressiveness and hostility. I never go looking for trouble. I am someone who reacts. It probably has to do with my youth and being bullied. I'm small and in sports I became very feisty. My closest friend was the same, small too, and we both were like that. Obviously, we weren't going to pick fights with people a lot bigger but we didn't back done when people tried to take advantage of us. My friend who is only 5-6 got in a fight with a guy 6-8 once and was getting the best of him until it was broken up. So, I reacted to the name-calling and ridicule and complained about it, but then I got it back even worse. I don't recall One Brow as one of them, but it turned out it was those who I believe were his Alts. However, he claims never to have had one. But these Alts all were Deron and Jerry fans (this was around 2008, I think, when AK was having his meltdown and I was taking his side against Deron and Jerry), so after some research I hypothesized that One Brow and Aint were one and the same. I shared my info with another poster, VinylOne, who thought the evidence was compelling. That's when I called One Brow and told him to knock it off. And the attacks stopped. But as you see, this was never resolved and I've gotten into tangles with other people who are mean-spirited here. People try to characterize me as a lunatic, especially One Brow. No, I'm not 100 percent certain he was / is the source of these alts, but the circumstantial evidence is strong. He claims he never knew Aint yet Aint lived in the same area, had almost identical opinions about the Jazz and Jerry, posted on One Brow's website (using arguments in a very similar legalistic style), and even engaged in a 30-page thread that was solely a dialogue with between him and Aint on Jazzfanz, lost to history when the site crashed. He steadfastly insists that he never met Aint, however. I don't really care if he was or isn't but this whole thing has persisted because people continue to bring it up and I am forced to defend myself as I am doing once again. I finally decided to use the Ignore function, which is the best way to stop this nonsense. I am not in a competition for truth or being right. But I have posted information that I believe is food for thought. There is no reason to attack me and say I'm nuts because I post things like saying there is some CONCERN about vaccines and then citing and linking to sources that have evidence of this. Disagree, ok. But to say I'm irresponsible and causing potential harm to people and that I'm ignorant, and lacking in intelligence, as One Brow or Alfalfa insists, is not right. The truth is that One Brow, if I'm right about his Alts, has a split-personality disorder. Why else would someone engage in a 30-page debate with one person on Jazzfanz (I think after I suggested they were the same person), if not to try to show that they were different persons?
I hope this is the last time I have to explain this. He can defend himself all he wants, and maybe doesn't have Alts, but he can't defend being the mean-spirited, arrogant know-it-all that he is.
