Note: the OP of the thread (and guy who runs the linked website, arete) is known to provide cover for prolific shills/incite inter-community conflicts. His site has been accused of providing browser fingerprints to would be doxxers as well.
Edit: he has also admitted to reading private messages and using their contents to assist a massive shill in continuing his shilling operation.
Oh yeah, and another thing. Elvis banned a proven shill for, among other offenses, sockpuppeting, vote manipulation, astroturfing, and support of pedophilia - he then accepts an undisclosed amount of money from this shill, unbans him, and proceeds to protect him for the next year+, even overturning multiple bans of this user by other, less subverted moderators until they quit in protest.
And this is not even the same site. It's a subdomain hosting a different open source website.
summary of that 1 year old drama:
u/then accuses u/OGrawsaw of being JG5's fed alt (based on a sarcastic message by rawsaw in the chat), says he posesses advanced hacking skills, wants to obtain JG5's home address using packet tracing on timed realtime chat messages of a specific length.
I respond to him by saying JG5's browser errors out when trying to use the chat, so it can't be him (that's all I said, not even which browser he uses, I didn't even have that info)
JG5 complains that I've revealed his browser fingerprint, so I delete the comment
JG5 then uses that deletion as "evidence" against me, claims I'm in cahoots with his enemy's plan to dox him. As for the sensitive "browser fingerprint" - him openly posting archives of that comment clearly indicates otherwise.
Feds will try to disenchant you from now on u/Elvis_Interstellar , due to your Arete existing. Just ban the disenchanters that lie. Graphenium knows you eventually banned Insurgent for 30 days for making too many anti-Bible-thumper memes.
Insurgent is still banned, and Graphenium is singing his old song.
Dont get demoralized. 21% of ConPro are paid shills and all now want to stop Arete.
Wrong, insurgent was (finally) banned because it became painfully obvious that every genuine user on the site wanted him gone, which was largely because I exposed him for the shill he is, despite Elvis’ best efforts to cover for him for 2+ years, including having multiple moderators quit over the issue.

Just a word of warning
You mean that one time a year ago when I said JG5's browser doesn't support chat when u/then tried to falsely portray OGrawsaw as an alt based on a sarcastic comment in the chat. Not much of a fingerprint.
And this is not even the same site. It's a subdomain hosting a different open source website.

Regardless, you’re not a trustworthy administrator for private data.
You also refuse to explain why you sided with the site’s most prolific shill over 4 of your moderators.
What a smear!
