Hello everyone. I was originally holding out on reporting this because I didn't want to jump to conclusions or anything (like I sometimes do when it comes to this), but I think this should at least be pointed out if nothing else.
I suspect one of the sites new users,
Red-Eyed Specter, to be a sock account of
The Prince of Counters. For a number of different reasons.
First, his timing. Specter joined our site on March 12th,
3 days after Prince was permabanned on the 9th.
Second, they both have interests in the same verses. Bleach, Fullmetal Alchemist and One Piece in particular, and Specter has either responded to the same threads or continued the same topics that Prince happened to participate in before his ban. Some examples:
-
Specter responded to the "Soul Crush Doesnt Exist" thread regarding Bleach's Reiatsu Crush discussion on the very same day he joined the site; Prince participated in that thread the second it was made .
-In the
"Fullmetal Alchemist Regenerationn revision" thread where Prince did his outburst,
he mentioned in the thread that he wanted to make a CRT to give Alchemists Information Anyalysis via their Alchemy;
Just 2 days ago, Specter made a CRT to get that very thing, and some other stuff, added for them.
Third, he takes
a thing or 2 out of Prince's playbook and
uses the whole "know what your talking about before countering anything" argument that Prince constantly used when people (including me) disagreed with him; He also says this to AKM-sama (who Prince had personal issues with due to Bleach discussions they were involved in). Speaking of which
Fourth, they both argubly have very similar writing styles, even down to formatting paragraphs the same way in threads.
2 random screenshots of their replies should show this.
Fifth, Specter's involvement
in the on-going Low 2-C Zeref thread also seems supscious. For someone whos new and has only been here for about 10 days, he's somehow perfectly experienced with our sites rules & standards. He also goes as far as
to accuse another user of arguing for Zeref to be Low 2-C in the past (how a brand new user would know this is beyond me). Anything else can be seen within the thread (which is now being derailed into a shit storm atm).
