We all know that "exposing" people has become a Traz tradition since Big Easy & the Traz kids seem to be overwhelmingly aroused by the whole process & with all the new "Alliance" bullshit kicking, some trusty TB members decided to clown the clowns.
It started out as an idea in the mind of one guy named Ramzi aka devils_advok8. (what's that Eric? "Oh shit" indeed).
So following a little discussion with myself, Ramzi decides to get in touch with FlipMo & use him as a go between. Ramzi told FlipMo that he'd acquired my name & a pic of me &, upon showing FlipMo the aforementioned pic, both agreed that this was indeed the stuff that "exposés" are made of. Under the guise of fearing that he may be banned for posting personal information, Ramzi sought FlipMo's advice as to what to do. FlipMo, just as Ramzi expected he would, suggested that the information be passed on to Big Easy - self-proclaimed exposer extraordinaire. FlipMo then got in touch with Big Easy - who trusted FlipMo with all his wittle heart - & then gave Ramzi's MSN address to Big Easy so they two could talk it over. Once this deed had been done, FlipMo was put in the loop so he too knew what was happening.
And from there the rest, as they say, is history. Big Easy swallowed everything Ramzi put to him & made this thread. And depsite the fact that Ramzi was corresponding with me the whole time & that he told me that him & Big Easy never talk, it would appear that Ramzi may be the "personal best friend" to which poor Eric refers. Then again it might be FlipMo, either way the end result is the same: a sad wittle Eric.
Anyway, we let this thing run for a while to let Traz think they had recaptured their old glory, reserving the right to slap them in the face whenever we felt like it.
Indeed there were many more people involved in this L.O.D production - ThUg $Tye & Duke to name but a few - & they all played their part but for now, I'm keeping it as relevant as possible.
For all those readers who can't cope with wordiness, here it is in short: CalcuoCuchicheo just discredited Big Easy's source(s).
To those anticipating my response, I will tell all in complete honesty starting from the beginning.
Calcuo is indeed correct on how the events transpired. I could sit here and lie, which I did think about doing as I thought of what I would say to this so that I could build a stronger defense, but I will be totally honest.
Earlier today I received an IM from FlipMo saying 'So ya wanna expose Calcuo?'. In my mind I thought this was a set-up. I replied via PM 'saying if this is true, you are the greatest Canadian since Pam Anderson. Contact me on MSN and we'll talk'. I unfortunately did not save that conversation, but I became very weary of his intentions due to the fact that he insisted on just sending the picture and had no interest in discussing the matters at hand (as to why he wanted to help me out). However, at the same time, I knew in the past FlipMo had a history of supporting Traz. He then gave me the contact info to devils_advok8 to talk to him about the matter.
When I talked to him I felt as though there was no coordinated effort to destroy the Alliance or Traz. Yet, I was still weary of the entire situation "Why would someone just want to help me out for no reason?".
At this point, I think that if devils_advok8 was trying to set me up, I'm highly disappointed because he seemed like a very cool dude.
However, here is where my story is different from Calcuo's. As you may know, I have many connections here on the board. I ran this picture by those people. Apparently, Calcuo has sent his picture to some members with strict confidentiality. You can choose to believe that or not, but I will not tell who these members are--they have helped me with exposures in the past. What FlipMo and devil do not know, is that they were being used by Calcuo. A few people let me in on vital information that the people he shared the photo with in strict confidentiality were going to use it against him...meaning give it to Traz. Calcuo (and i must give you great credit for your plan), used the two to ultimately do what they did. With this, he could use the plan and tell it in great detail to show he wasn't being exposed and that no one would believe that picture was him. Basically, he went to great lengths to discredit twistedly through me exposing him before anyone could beat him to it.
I would say I hope that you all could believe me and I only want to say that because I understand this is one of the greatest threats against Traz in our entire history, but I don't feel like I need to because there are no lies here. We have never lied in the past. All exposing was factual and still is. Indeed I will admit about 5 pages deep I realized I may have been duped. I thought to myself "wow calcuo got me real good." Then I was informed of the apparent real deal. These members (the ones who were apparently sent the pics in confidentiality) who helped me in no way are associated with LOD. They even showed me an untagged version of the picture. How would they get that? I never intended to bring this up in the thread because I was so positive that I did not need to. But here I am, using it to prove my story.
There are so many facets of this story that are so complex. Writing this post, there is a slim possibility that those who helped me telling the apparent real story may have also duped me, but that would not explain the untagged photos and I KNOW they have no association with LOD and I have been cool with the people for a long long time.
So there, that's the end of my store in it's entirety. I do not believe Traz or I was owned. I believe very strongly that the photo is indeed him through my own small research and what other people have suggested to me. But if by chance I was duped, it will be the biggest effort I've ever seen in my life. I hope you can note the huge sarcasm in that last sentence although I wont rule it out. If Traz or the Alliance was owned, I take full responsibility and I will bow out of Traz and The Alliance for good. I am good with my word and that's how strongly I feel about my case.
Take into consideration the fact that I have no history of lying and Calcuo has many unanswered questions he has yet to address while I have addressed everything...logically I might add.
A few questions for you Calcuo:
You claim to be from Glasgow, but no one in Glasgow from what I understand looks like that. But that's understandable if the pic is NOT you. However, your IP says you're from Virginia and Virginia is a melting pot for all nationalities. Explain that and why you lied about your location.
You said and I quote: "We let this thing run for a while to let Traz think they had recaptured their old glory, reserving the right to slap them in the face whenever we felt like it." Personally I think this makes absolutely no sense. Sure you could argue that you let it run so you could gain popularity, but on the same token, you're image was at stake. I don't think anyone normal would let it run that long. And I'll back that up with the following: You kept saying throughout the thread that you'll end this right now. But you didn't. You kept gathering the most information you could so you could create a story without any gaps so no one could question you. That's why you told everyone to stop replying to you could reply. Who needs everyone to stop replying so you could reply? Really, it makes no sense. You kept saying you were going to end it and didn't until you couldn't take it anymore.
I am now done. I hope everyone read this in it's entirety. If you have any doubts or questions about my post, feel free to ask and I will explain further or more clearly.
