I cannot believe that no-one seemed to figure out the connection between "jennyRater" and Starthane Xyzth over the last 2 months! :p Let's see:

- We always seem to post in the same threads;
- We reply to each other's messages when no-one else will;
- We express similar views;
- When Starthane was temporarily banned, it was only Jenny that made a fuss... DUH! We are the same person!!

That must be testimony to my skill in creating a character with such bad spelling, omnipresent typos and nonexistent punctuation. And in convincing you all that "she" is an American, when in fact I have hardly ever been there.

Perhaps I have a repressed gay side - I don't know. Impersonating a female was just something I've always wanted to try. could have carried on indefinitely, I suppose - but I really am getting tired of it...

Goodbye folks, this has been such fun. :D

Indeed... as a few others have said, SciForums has taken up a LOT of my time. Especially since I began masquerading as jennyRater :rolleyes: ...

There are, I fear, more productive things I could be doing. So perhaps I'll finish with this transgender revelation. Kudos to you all.

Or I might be back one day, in an entirely new guise perhaps? Depends how boredom and nostalgia may have it! :cool:

It couldn't have been that people just simply didn't care...

naw.

Hmm. Interesting. I think that the reason you pulled it off was:

a.) You don't seem to be one of the types to play such games (just goes to show...)
b.) You made her seem ignorant and flighty enough that people just basically ignored her. I did anyway. I hope you intended to make her seem ignorant...

- We always seem to post in the same threads;

Nothing strange about this. Some people's viewpoints jibe and so they find the same topics interesting. However, with only one person in the couple being intelligent, it would seem strange that you should respond seriously to her.

- We reply to each other's messages when no-one else will;

Why should this send off any warning messages? Again. If you find each other's posts interesting why wouldn't you respond when no one else finds them to be so?

- We express similar views;

Never noticed that. You seem intelligent, she seemed... empty-headed.

- When Starthane was temporarily banned, it was only Jenny that made a fuss... DUH! We are the same person!!

It's interesting that even the moderators didn't catch on during your banning. They too must have overlooked the flighty chick.


I suppose what made of made her most believable was her picture. It wasn't too hot, but not too ugly. It was just sorta cute without being anything fancy. Like a real person. Whose picture was that then?

Anyway. So you're planning on leaving? Pity. The astronomy forum will be poorer for your loss.

It couldn't have been that people just simply didn't care...


Yeah. That too. It wasn't like she was controversial or anything. Hardly a blip on the radar.

Hm.

I must say that I have liked both Jenny and Starthane. They both had a lightness and a freshness about them.

No, Invert, I don't agree with you about "You seem intelligent, she seemed... empty-headed." -- in that music thread, she held a very interesting position.

What was most astonishing was the way Jenny marched into the forums. In such a grand and self-assured style! It made quite an impression on me. And somehow, I couldn't quite believe that a girl wearing such make-up (no offence, please) could be so smart. A true "Harward Blonde".

And Starthane was just the kind of person I would have liked for a friend. He showed such delicate discernment so often.


Well, I shall miss you if you go.

I liked Starthane, but Jenny made me itch. Wow, you made her really girly and annoying! I only guessed the two of you were dating.

Ghm. By the way, invert_nexus and I are the same person, as he himself has hinted and others have guessed.

Oh, how perplexing that you are invert_nexus, plexus.

Plexus,

By the way, invert_nexus and I are the same person, as he himself has hinted and others have guessed.

Bullshit.
I do wonder who you are though. You did admit to being a puppet. But who lies behind the mask, I wonder?


Oh, how perplexing that you are invert_nexus, plexus.

Don't let it fool you. It lies. Puppets are adept in lying.

Anyway. As to JennyRater. Dunno. Seemed like a bubblehead to me. Especially at the start. I suppose there were a few posts that weren't completely inane. But not many that I read. Like I said, I basically started ignoring it after a while. Occasionally tuning in to see what stupid shit it would be saying this time. But, it wasn't outrageously stupid like Philocrazy or John Smith. It just sort of hovered around the edges of anonymity. Which means it was sometimes halfway intelligent, but never enough to make a mark in my awareness.

Thankyou, Water! I never realised you took much notice of me (in either persona!)

We can be friends if you like - do you have MSN? :)

And cheers to Invert & Plexus for you comments; I'll bear them in mind next time I join a forum...
...Her picture. It wasn't too hot, but not too ugly. It was just sorta cute without being anything fancy. Like a real person. Whose picture was that then?

That was just a random American girl I found on Faceparty.com. I suppose I took the slight risk that she was already a member of SciForums as well...

i thin that they are seprate people, trying to fool us now, is it not posibel that tehy are plotting to fool us now, by maknig us "realise" all of teh similarities, they are actually setting us up for a bigger april fools, when in a few weeks they tell us they put it all on and fooled us gullable idiots

You got me, you play a bitch well.
Does your anus sport labia by any chance?
There were a few times I raised an eyebrow, are you australian starthane? There were times jennyrater seemed australian pretending to be american. There's a certain australia-speak that is evident in the posts of australians and jenny rater had it.
Also, when she was bothered by your absence, I made a note of it as I found it quite peculiar that anyone would notice or care.

All in all well played though really, she seemed dumb in that characteristically female "I don't ever think about anything important" kind of way.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh a virtual hermafrodite.

lol

I don’t understand, you have posted 400 posts under a different name and you are calling us sad because we didn't realize it......

Come on you are the saddest in the first place for even thinking about doing it...

Rather than start a new thread this seems an appropriate place to confess: I am not any other poster on this forum; I am not even a poster on this forum; Ophiolite does not exist as an entity or a nom-de-plume or an alias or a metaphor. All posts by Ophiolite have been the result of a random concatenation of sub-atomic particles and wave functions coalescing into aparently material expressions of dubious significance. If you have been angered/saddened/dismayed/ informed/amused by any of these pseudo-posts it is not to late to seek professional help.

What an odd coincidence that a such "a random concatenation of sub-atomic particles and wave functions coalescing into aparently material expressions of dubious significance" would happen to confess to what it actually is so accurately.
The chances of that happening have to be over a million billion to one.

That's just the way the up-quark crumbles.

Thankyou, Water! I never realised you took much notice of me (in either persona!)

We can be friends if you like - do you have MSN? :)

Yes, I have MSN. And then we can talk about journals and bad make-up!
:p ;)

Unless you are the only one of this kind of phenomena -- then chances are the rest of us also do not exist as entities or nom-de-plumes or aliases or metaphors. All posts by us have then been the result of random concatenations of sub-atomic particles and wave functions coalescing into apparently material expressions of dubious significance.

Would you really like that to be the case?

If you have been angered/saddened/dismayed/ informed/amused by any of our pseudo-posts it is not to late to seek professional help.

Will you say that all this isn't really happening?

Would you really like that to be the case?
Will you say that all this isn't really happening?I do not exist. I am merely a figment of my own imagination.

Well, then you exist as a figment of your imagination -- but you still exist.

How can someone say "I do not exist"? If others can read your saying this, then, for them, you do exist.

It could be a chat bot.

Wait... Jenny's and American? I thought she was Canadian, or possibly Australian. She was really dumb. I pretty much ignored her, everything she posted hurt to look at.

People couln't give a rat ass either.

Since jennyRater has never added anything of any value to this community, would it be possible to delete her and all 400 of her inane posts?

Just wondering.

as I siad its an online hermaphrodite.

Just wondering.

If we deleted all the posts that added nothing to the value of the community at sciforums, we would have all of about... 12% of our current posts.

We specialize in the terminally stupid. And we can't seem to get any of them to shut the hell up.

True enough. I guess I agree with Mills in that allowing everyone to speak is the best and easiest policy. I mean, what are the alternatives? Totaltarianism, or a few steps above that?
Besides, letting people tell lies only better illuminates the truth.

You're just bashing Jenny because you now know she was a sock puppet.

I don't mind the lies and people who are just wrong.

I mind the useless sots who don't add anything at all. The painfully dumb, socially overcompensating folks with huge post counts and no real content.

The bell curve, my dear. You couldn't be "special" or "different" or "better", if it weren't for all those whom you mind -- "the useless sots who don't add anything at all. The painfully dumb, socially overcompensating folks with huge post counts and no real content."

Technically she would still be better if the 'sots' wouldn't post here.

No. I'm stupid in a lot of ways. I just don't open my mouth and prove it to people all the time. I'm no better or no less than anyone else. I just don't need to bring attention to myself each time I post, thereby pointing out my ineptitude in a painfully public way making myself useless and inane.

My point is that there is a time to talk, and a time to listen. Some people have never caught on to that, and this forum is an extreme example of people who don't know much shouting over the people who know a little and drowning them out.

You've brought this up before. But all you do is complain. What have you DONE about these people who have never caught up with that -- that there is a time to talk, and a time to listen?
Apparently, they don't learn it themselves.

All I can do it complain. And hope they listen. I am not a moderator, nor can I ban those people who can't seem to help themselves. Pity that, really. I will however continue to bring it up in hopes that at least one or two of them listen and post one less post than they were going to today. I could make a list of people, but what purpose would that serve except to cause more clutter and spam. Calling out stupid people is not a good idea in general. You could call them stupid to their face, but then you'd get banned or suspended for it. It's a crying shame because there are people here who can contribute and have good conversations, but the sheer numbers of those who can't are overwhelming. I don't post all that much here, because I know that someone stupid will follow it up with either a dumb off-topic comment, a really ignorant comment, a flame or an army of strawmen. It was that way when I first came a bit, but it's getting so much worse.

People don't learn. So I suppose all the energy I spend trying to get people who should shut up, to shut up is useless. Problem is that there are quite a few people I respect here and would like to have a conversation with. I don't want to have to wade through a septic tank to be able to do it.

Arditezza,

You are a woman. What about some proper female cunning?! Some subversiveness?
I mean really, one can have a positive effect on other people. It takes some love and guts though.

I spend all that type of energy on people who I see face to face.

There are quite a few people here that I have spent the energy on. They know who they are, and they know why.

I simply don't bother with the rest because I am only one person, and you can't really be heard over a screaming mob of a thousand children without a bullhorn or microphone no matter how much love and guts you have. You can still want it to change though.

I spend all that type of energy on people who I see face to face.
/.../
I simply don't bother with the rest

Then it's odd you should complain -- if you're not willing to do anything for them, and all they get from you is scorn. Not very motivating.

Perhaps you misinterpret my wanting them to improve and be contributing members of society as scorn. I have no problem with those who become good members. Perhaps my complaints are just criticisms of their behaviour in a want for them to improve. They didn't listen when I spoke kindly about it, so I have thrown out the pomp and circumstance in favour of honesty albeit without tact.

I do not exist. I am merely a figment of my own imagination.

Now that would look and sound ever so cool in a wedding vow. :D

It sounds so ... so ... religious!

Well, the forum's back... nice to see you all again.

That goes for me too.

Hi there, you Sciamese twins.
