Like, imagine what must be going on in that guy's life to cause him to just read probably the first half or something of a niche article and spew rage like that.

Some of the comments on the article are bubbling over with so much ignorance and mysterious spray-and-pray frustration that it's actually maddening to read.


Guardian comment says

Actually, the story was boring and very predictable.

Breaking news: Attention-seeking troll fooled a gaggle of gullible halfwits.

A troll quitting an internet message board and/or game by faking his own suicide is one of the most tired pranks on the internet. I'm sure he also used a plethora of sock puppet accounts to gather doxxing info on other board members. In fact, I'd bet a lot of money that one of his socks was/is a board moderator.

wow good read guys.

They exposed frauds such as a man who was pretending to be a teenage girl, and a woman who claimed to have suffered a traumatic brain injury but offered multiple explanations (car crash, electrical surge, illness) on different forums.
