Somebody is impersonating a recently-departed DUer and badmouthing DU.
Edited on Sun Nov-28-04 09:58 PM by Wat_Tyler
(on various sites around the net)
Don't know who it is, but I know he isn't the person he's claiming to be. I'm not going to say the former DUer's name, because I don't want this thread to get derailed into a pissing match, just wanted to tip people off if they happen to run into it.

Mods - you may feel the need to lock this. I understand. I just wanted to bring this to people's attention.

On edit - the impersonator is posting on various DUers blogs and personal sites - watch out for it, you'll know it when you see it.

3. It didn't take long to figure out.
I also saw another DUer take the person posting as the former DUer to task -- rightfully. I think somebody's taking advantage of someone's (apparently voluntary) exit to smear DU -- I hope this doesn't get taken down or locked, because I think it's important to know it's happening.
