I apologize for the antagonism he has caused and will likely continue to cause. I will be watching for him and removing his posts when he resurfaces to graze on the happiness of others, and chicken nuggets.
Do not fear though, he must know this is a battle he has lost. He cannot even handle a bottle of vodka, let alone cause any real damage. He thrived on causing low intensity chaos, enough to spark threads and forums posts but no damage. He is the tor version of a graffiti person.
He has never liked me, the day I joined alphabay he was temporarily banned for trolling me and later I temporarily banned him myself on unrelated charges. I wonder if he has ever liked anyone or anything besides chicken nuggets and the sinking feeling in your chest when someone goes out of their way to bother you for no reason.
Dont expect him to come to reddit though, I have enjoyed talking with him and he feels himself above reddit, among other things. I am sad to see him go, speaking to him has been enjoyable. He is intelligent but arrogant and rarely puts above the minimal effort even into his trolling. He told me enough about himself that his behavior should be expected. He has never faced any adversity in his life greater than being removed from alphabay, and perhaps now with a new username and a new identity he will behave as if there are consequences to his actions.
Or maybe not.
I would also like to clarify
Penissmith has never been a staff member at alphabay, the extent to which he has had any affiliation is as a volunteer scamwatch and guide reviewer.
Scamwatch members are community volunteers and are not staff. Imagine if there was a position below forums moderator in the power structure.
Penissmith has never had any powers on alphabay beyond that of a normal vendor.
Penissmith does not even know about the alphabay HQ so please dont tell him.
Thank you.
Its my hope that he finds a new home, such as dream market.
