Please confirm my sex

December 27, 2008 2:36 pm

Vint's human. (Red version)You gotta love Prok, especially when she is - once again - making erroneous statements. It’s funny, how she thinks there’s nothing wrong with launching personal attacks on those who disagree with her, yet if I publish someone else’s comment saying there must be a loose wire somewhere in Prokofy’s humans head, for that same twisted brain, all of a sudden I turn… male. Or at least in the process of transgedering. I don’t really follow the underlying arguments, maybe I’m not female because I don’t loath technology and ‘tekkies’ the way she does? Or is it just ‘the loose wire’ talking?

So please, could those of you who have met me in real life, have heard me on voice for a few hours, or that have taken the time to look here, here or here, help put Prokofy’s troubled mind at peace by confirming I am a ‘real life’ female? So Miss Prokofy may publish a rectification on her blog, where she also made this statement? It’s about time that-what-shall-not-be-talked-about (and that-what-I-was-ignoring until she pulled this stunt) learns to say ‘OMG, sorry, I was wrong!’

Vint, are you a male originally in real life, either cross-dressing in that rather ambiguous photo you put up here on your website under “about me,” or perhaps in the process of transgendering? Nothing wrong with that, but I find ambivalence about such a status often does often explain the particular obsessiveness and viciousness with which some SL types like yourself begin hysterically hating me, putting up hate pages about me, whiting out my comments like Orwell’s 1984, etc. etc. So, you know, just sayin’. Say, has anybody actually seen the real Vint Falken in RL, and can they comment on his/her real or presented gender? (From the comments at BD vs. Catharine Fitzpatrick. As you can see, I’ve been quiet there for ages, so I don’t see why she all of the sudden feels the need to attack me again. Except for ‘the loose wire’ theory, of course.)

Update: So this is why (s)he’s pissed. And article I wrote in defence of Benjamin Duranske when Prokofy Neva chose to attack Benjamin’s RL persona, that is ranking well on Google and titled Benjamin Duranske vs. Catherine Fitzpatrick. The irony is that it was supposed to help Benjamin’s reply to Prokofy’s accusations rank well. As Benjamin took down his article, I guess mine went up to first place. Well, it’s staying up, regardless which gender/sex that gets me.

Why do you care at all? You know what you are, that should be enough. I for once do not care at all what biological sex and age you have. All that counts for me is your intellect, your depth of thoughts, your creativity. You could be an alien, a dog, or an AI - I could not care less. The only part where your age (for legal reasons) and your gender (for biological reasons) count is the aspect of procreation - and this seems not even a remote possibility with you :-)

So instead of dedicating a whole blogpost to this ridiculous matter you could simply shrug it off with a laugh. You won’t change Prok’s mind, you don’t need to prove ANYTHING to me and lots of others, and you yourself know what you are.

I can honestly, for really really sure state that she is indeed a female. Be it with male stubbornness. But a female she is. In real life.

I agree with Peter.. this is just trolling, and I wouldn’t bother feeding to it. When Profoky’s resorting to such ludicrous questions, I think it pretty much says it all about what sort of character this is.

Shun, ignore and don’t rise to the bait.

I’ll never understand why anyone ever takes the time to read the crap that comes out of that deranged individual’s blahgs.

She’ll post a rectu-something, certainly.

Eeek, Vint, you’ve dug yourself in deeper here. Those pictures are far from persuasive, but only raise more doubts about you.

Fortunately, Second Life does offer a seemless way to take care of these ambiguities : )

Er, I don’t have to publish any “rectification,” as I’m providing a public service here, *asking a question* for which I’ve still not received an adequate and convincing answer.

Prokofy Neva wrote a comment on December 27, 2008

So, uh, Prad, what do you call it when someone retains a dedicated harassment page publishing someone’s RL name and picture (oh, yeah, it’s available openly but it isn’t linked in SL, so linking it is abusive)?

What do YOU call someone attempting to constantly Google bomb someone’s search results with a page where they incite mobs to print falsehoods and obsess hysterically about “trolls” merely because…wait for it…I once failed to put Vint in my list of top blogs of SL? LOL. Really, you need to get a grip, and ask yourself if this concept of “trolling” has any meaning — except as exemplified in Vint’s own hateful, obsessive, incitement posts.

I can also confirm (having met Vint in RL) that she is indeed a female. Prok, I don’t know what kind of uninformed nitwit you are and to be frank, I don’t care. Next time though, do some research before making these uninformed claims about people. Or is that beyond you?

Prok, grow up! And don’t forget you were never playing nice on this blog, in multiple discussions you could not help yourself but insult people, attack their persons in stead of their opinions and if you ran out of mud to throw, you’d just make it up yourself. I haven’t mentioned you here for ages - up to now -, and that blogpost is staying up as long as vintfalken.com is. I haven’t contributed to it for ages, but if others wish to do so, I assume they each have good reasons to dislike you, right?

As for the pictures, I’m sorry my boob-mass is fewer than yours (honestly, I really am), but it’s pretty well known that besides their normal difference in sizes, breast mass is also directly related to overweight mass. Hence you have ’nuff of both masses, I have less. As both Johan & Danni have met me iRL, and Dark is “really really sure” that’s 3 sane voices against 1 ‘loose wire’ opinion.

Prokofy Neva wrote a comment on December 27, 2008
MyAvatars 0.2

Um, I didn’t make “uninformed claims,” Johan. I *asked a question*. I asked if anybody had proof Vint is really female. MyAvatars 0.2 is a go-nowhere link that means nothing. You’ve met Vint in RL, but how do you know she isn’t a cross-dresser?

No, Ciaran, it’s not silly. It’s necessary. People fuck with me repeatedly, maintaining harassment and spite pages, encouraging people to post and post and showing “Google where to point” to my RL name and picture and constant drumbeats of vilification, I fight back. I fight back as hard and as dirty as I can possible muster. That’s what I find is required to deal with the assholes of Second Life.

The photographic evidence is suspect indeed. Even the RL evidence is suspect, frankly. Like I said, a notarized certified exam by a gynecologist is exactly what’s required here given this situation where someone persists in behaving like a mangina.

Prokofy Neva wrote a comment on December 27, 2008

Oh, I’ll attack and insult anybody who needs it, Vint, starting with your overrated, snotty, affected, hyperexaggerated self.

If you want to be transgendered, that’s fine, go ahead. Just don’t lie about it. And male or female, you don’t get to behave like a fucking mangina, harassing and inciting harassment of other people endlessly. Grow the fuck up.

Your boobs look like fakes. I think I’m on to something here. Deal with it.

In fact, put some cream on those, they’ll go away.

Attacks against people AND opinions are needed in this life, dear. Indeed, they are the oxygen of democracy. Deal with it. You blog wasn’t memorable, isn’t popular, and has dropped like a stone in the last 3 months in traffic, so grow up, face the music, get a job — and get a haircut.

Yann Lebout wrote a comment on December 27, 2008
MyAvatars 0.2

For someone like me who doesn’t know anything about all this stuff it is a very funny and surrealist conversation ! Someone tell that someone is a transgender. He obviously doesn’t know the other person, has absolutely nothing to prove his point of view and maintain his affirmation against every prove the other give.

And the worst is that everyone care ! Like the guy isn’t just completely crazy ! At first I was laughing at people who were afraid of virtual worlds and was very positive about this technology, then I understood that a fully-open virtual world was useless and that the only use of this technology was in a restricted envirronment with defined objectives. Now I understand that virtual worlds are really dangerous from the people in there which seem to be completely disconnected from reality. Where nothing can be proven by tangible things and where the truth is to be found only in the lips of the one who shout the loudest.

Beside that I’d like to remember that being a transgenre is not an insult. If you want more trolls on your blog, I can give this link to some transgenre activist who shout really loud and will if they see how you present their gender identity.

So as an advice I would recommand to fight the detestable ideas of Prokofy Neva not with objects photos or anything tangible but with idea and value. He doesn’t seem to have much so it shoudn’t be too difficult.

Johan Yugen wrote a comment on December 27, 2008

So you go from asking a question to fabricating an all out attack on Vint based on nothing but your misguided opinions. Let me ask you a question: are you a Republican? Seems to me the ones that slam others on little to no evidence tend to be either members of the GOP or siding with them. Sarah Palin, anyone?
That is, however, irrelevant to the main point of the main post and also to the other comments present here. What is relevant is the fact that you are being highly hypocritical in your words. How can you claim to be only asking a question then state that apparently Vint’s breasts are fake and that she is a cross dresser? How can you continue to play the innocence card when you keep making accusations against many many people? How can you even live with yourself knowing how hypocritical you are?
There are a few questions for you. Truthful answers, please, just like the one I gave you.

Dark wrote a comment on December 27, 2008
MyAvatars 0.2

It’s just damn right hilarious how she has this fantasy about being taken seriously when she clearly can’t hold back on plain insults and clear-as-day attacks. It’s like raping a 4-year old in public and shooting it through the head point blank while anouncing you’re a good person. I for one strongly believe you’re not taking the medication prescribed to you by a myriad of doctors.

That aside, you state that nothing but a notarized certified exam by a gynecologist will do. Heh … way to go. Yeah let’s be realistic in an on-line “fight” here. That’s really sad. Especially since, if I take a good look, you’re less of a woman than Vint is. (playing as a man in SL doesn’t do any good for you on that point either now does it?) Anyway if you expect something like that you should do so yourself. If you can find anyone brave enough to examine that, alledged, batcave of yours.

I’ve never heard of you before today but as per your first posting I realized you are a sad little person. There’s a lot of hate inside you or something. And I can see why you’d vent that on someone 1/5th your size. If you’re not a man well than you certainly ate a few.

And to just round things up:
- more traffic has nothing to do with being right
- neither does the use of fancy-prancy big-girl (figuratively, this time) words
- thinking of more traffic as better makes you, again, shallow
- how on earth can you make comments about Vint’s physical appearance when yours is enough to keep an alien race from invading the earth since they’re afraid of such a hidious creature?

kind regards

Prok, also, don’t sweat it, only 80 (catherine fitzpatrick) + 20 (”catherine fitzpatrick”) persons searched for ‘catherine fitzpatrick’ and ended up on my blog since september 2007. Most of them did spend some time on that page, though. :D

Hiya Vint!

Not exactly taking sides here but since we met in organic space I do feel compelled to confirm to the virtual world that you are indeed female. Pretty obviously so, though those hipsters were more than enough to dispel any doubts - lol.

Hm, how do we know that Prok is really female IRL? Those pictures don’t really prove anything. Maybe he is a man pretending to be a woman pretending to be a man! Hm, if the equivalent of Prok’s “mangina” for what Prok *claims* to be would be, say, “Chickprick”, what gross-sounding portmanteau word would we use for the man pretending to be woman pretending to be man case? The mind boggles!!

Uh, I don’t care WHAT Google ranks. It truly doesn’t matter. If anything, it makes more people read my blog and click on my ads : )

What I *do* do, however, is fight back against fucktards like you who try to Google bomb me and harass me. And, I do point out that Benjamin *has* managed to grow up just enough to remove *his* spite page — so that your link no longer works *chuckles*.

So now you have a choice of recycling his removed content, which he might then be asking you to take down (so his new employers don’t get protest letters and so that as a lawyer, he faces nothing actionable), or doing whatever — but as long as people keep posting to your page and it keeps showing up in search, I’ll be pushing back : )

Actually, I’m going to need a DNA test now, not just a doctor’s say so.

Still upset that your blog traffic has taken such a nosedive that you need my key words to pump up your readership ROFL?

BTW, you look like death warmed over in your RL photograph. Something upsetting you?

It really is strange but I do believe Prok him/her self has gender and sexuality issues not to mention body image sensitivities. The florid aggressiveness combined with the paranoid sense that the entire world is out to get him/her confirms my hunch that this is a case of unchecked borderline personality disorder (http://pareidoliac.blogspot.com/2008/09/trolls-online-prokofy-neva.html).

A quick look at her rant (http://secondthoughts.typepad.com/second_thoughts/2008/12/the-fat-lady-sings.html) is instructive for those new to Prokofy. Interesting that no one so far who has been directed to my blog through Prokofy’s post has left any comments at 2nd Thoughts, nor complained to Google to have my blog removed as Prok desires. Great for boosting traffic to my blog however.

Prok,
Vint might need an appointment with a good hairdresser, i told her that at least once. IRL, mind you, (in real life, Proky ! or should that be Porky ?) But she is definately, female ! And a very pretty female too ! And more importantly : she has a big heart… thats why so many people love and appreciate her…
Eat your heart out Porky !

No, Dale, I’m not. She looks like a male in drag. Acts like one, too. BTW, if you’d like to have IBM pay for my DNA tests, I can send a swab : )

Vint doesn’t have a big heart; she has a big ego. I can understand how the distinction is lost on you, however : )

Pareidoliac, did you post your RL picture yet, or are you simply too scared shitless because you’re an ugly loser?

I don’t have any issues; trust me, if I had issues, I wouldn’t be giving interviews to the New York Times or running a blog with all the hate visitors I get. I’m above all that.

Only somehow who is afraid of the kind of harassment he dishes out to others online would be paranoid, and not put his RL name and picture, as you have not on your blog. Typical coward.

Google isn’t where you’d complain, you’d complain to Blogger.com And…you’d not be notified necessarily : )

In short, while Pareidoliac goes on spouting his hysterical and hate-filled nonsense, I will always have the upper hand in this argument because my picture is posted and my RL information known, and linked to my avatars.

And his…is not.

I disagree with your opinions a lot, but I hate to see you go back and forth with the likes of that fella/gal. That one requires validation through acknowledgment…whether it be positive or negative…so best just to ignore the very existence. I think being told “you don’t matter” would be the nerve to hit with that fella/gal. Me, I choose not to provide him/her with my traffic.

Of course, if you want to go back and forth, this is the part where we sit back and have a brew…maybe lay down a small bet.

‘Nuff said.

Vint, it’s not worth lowering yourself to the level that Prok operates. Those of us who have been around a while are only too aware of her rabid turns. Those who are new to SL blogging can get a pretty clear idea of her lack of balance pretty quickly - usually within the first paragraph or so of her routine blog rants.

As Peter and Prad point out. All you’re doing right now is feeding the troll - and you’re far better than that.

Seriously though, ignore Pork, it’s just saying things to make you more angry, going so over the top since it knows that will just piss you off more. Somehow it enjoys doing that to people or just feels paranoid enough that it needs to talk like that. Dunno - anyway you want to think about it, Pork is beneath notice. Some lack of personal self-respect, a need to spew bile to feel better about itself, a megalomaniacal, paranoid delusion that everything anyone says pertains to ‘the most important person in the universe’, Pork.

You have to feel sorry for Pork though, such a small-minded individual deserves our pity.

That said I think it’s a pretty shitty and lousy thing to write any sort of public viewed piece that questions or judges a persons sex or sexuality. Sure you have a right to question but by publishing it for everyone to see you are not so much asking for an answer but accusing the person.

Can you honestly not find something better to write about?

Oh, BTW Vint, that toothbrush in that photo gives you away as a guy - no self-respecting woman would use a toothbrush like that. Only a guy would. And your defense of your gender proves it further, “methinks he dost protest too much,” and all that. Besides, no woman would *ever* wear a shirt with a skull on it, everyone I’ve seen who has, is really a guy beneath the shirt. And first-hand witnesses - they are all just alts of yours Vint, just to hide your secret. Karyotypes? They can be faked. Gynecologist results? Fiction, just to hide your secret.

See how easy it is to make up complete tripe like Pork does? No proof is enough, nor ever will be, because Pork’s purpose is not to discover the truth, but to cause you to feel bad and become angry.

Eh, who cares. I kinda see it as a compliment, albeit a backhanded one, to be assumed as male. It’s happened to me for years and years. On one hand it’s nice to be thought of as being competent enough to stand with the boyz. On the other hand, it makes me sad that women are assumed to be less competent than the boyz. :/

Vint, I just wanted to say that I found your Benjamin Duranske vs. Catherine Fitzpatrick post useful as I was initially a little taken aback by Prokofy’s democratic agency on Twitter. One usually enters a social encounter with some assumption about the good intentions of the other party… good intentions or even good words seem rather alien to Prokofy.

In fact, I found the advice within the post spot on… that the best thing to do with a character like this is to realize that nothing personal is meant and that its more of a compulsive need for her/his own gratification.

I think it is useful to have multiple accounts of encounters individuals have with Prokofy online so that people may form their own opinions. Its rather remarkable though that on the whole far more negative opinions abound about this character than positive. Perhaps some conspiracy? Who knows.

Incidentally, thanks to your blog, I’ve gained a small taste of the goings on of Second Life… I’m not really an SL fan myself but I’m interested in virtual communities generally.

I don’t need any “gratification”. What I *do* need to do, however, is two simple things, because they’re right:

1. Protest against Pareidoliac’s tasteless and aggressively stupid misogynist icon on Twitter — and that’s more than fine to do, and many join me in that sentiment.

2. Protest against Pareidoliac’s cowardly continuation of harassment of me by posting my RL picture and name, which is done for aggressive, stalkery motivations — by this person who himself doesn’t publish his picture or RL name.

Those are noble goals; they are absolutely the right thing to do. They aren’t “trolling”; they are *doing the right thing* and fighting Internet thuggery. And I’ll keep fighting — and fighting shit like that isn’t “bile”; it’s a noble struggle, and in fact, there are a lot of people who support me. Even if there weren’t, it would be the right thing to do to protest the jackboot always coming down on the human face.

I could care less that some little tekkie fan groups like Vint’s are hysterically obsessed with my criticism and shrieking because they cannot ever bear to be criticised. Young people of this type on the Internet are appalling unprepared for life and terribly ill raised. No one should be allowing them to take over our worlds, as they are horrendously sectarian and oppressive. Nothing is more distasteful than the conformism of these aggressively obedient tribalist and totalitarian youth.

So, I’m sure you’ll join me then in condemning Vint Falk for publishing my RL name and RL picture in connection with my avatar, which outs my gender in RL as contrasting with my SL gender. She did that to *silence my criticism* — it’s a common technique to try to *shut me up*.

Do you think such blackmail is appropriate? Do you think such thuggery is just?

Go ahead, we’re waiting…Oh, you think she gets to do that because she can Google-stalk and find the information? Why? Then, I get to do it, too. I can ask the question. Her pictures aren’t convincing. Why is what Vint does ok, but if I fight back and do the same thing to her, suddenly, it’s not ok.

Hah, I love that highly-refined sense of morality that fanboyz like you bring to this sort of discussion, where you are so readily exposed as hypocrits.

Whow pork, wallowing in self-indulgence again? You deserve a fucking statue! You’re a real friggin’ hero! I’m AMAZED that there aren’t any books, magazines, movies, expositions about you yet! PLEASE DO carry on the NOBLE fight against one internet icon! Which happens to be just a crop of a readily available image circling the net sinds 1999 or something (cfr. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/36/122831483_ee200a396e.jpg?v=0 or even http://uk.gizmodo.com/SexyMouse.jpg more to fight!!), along with variations of it. But oh dear lord please please save the poor community of this repulsive 50×50px or so icon !!

Hahaha, are you fucking serious? Haha. If that’s the case then surely I deserve thousands of medals for picking up a paper snippet and throwing it in the trash!

I for one fully support the continuation of posting your picture and full name all over the net and will participate!

I do hope (but not believe) there are a lot of people supporting you since if it were just a few they’d be crushed. Please people join and support this noblest-of-noble fight!

“Do you think such blackmail is appropriate? Do you think such thuggery is just?” -> yes, haha

“Why is what Vint does ok, but if I fight back and do the same thing to her, suddenly, it’s not ok.” -> why isn’t Vint banned just about anywhere and why are there so so so so soooo many people against your vile word-vomiting?

Now Vint, the -woman- I went for drinks with yesterday, has already said she’d shut up. And I will too, at my time of choosing. But at the moment this is pure entertainment.

And speaking of opressive. You’re really just shooting yourself in the foot with just about every line you write. You say youth is ill raised, yet I see a lot of name-calling from a 104 year old. You say youth is sectarian, yet I see you trying to divide people into groups. You say youth is opressive, yet you’re the one opressing youth by saying they’re not allowed to “take over your worlds”. You really are a joke aren’t you? :)

To put a closing on this post, I’d just like to point out that you’re fighting a lost battle already. For a number of reasons actually:
1. my-oh-my the avatar fight which you won’t win (and is completely ridiculous)
2. youth will -always- take over. You are going to die. I hope this will hapen sooner than later and seeing the status of your physical appearance this could be the case. But you are going to die and you will die sooner than “youth”. So, there you go. You lost.

You seem to be … no scratch that. You are one of those people who wants to put himself in the spotlight by claiming (very loudly) to perform a public service, and (still laughing about this) fighting a “noble” fight. You’re a real friggin’ knight in shining armour!

If you really want to fight a noble fight. Help the poor, build schools in Africa, save the wales, save the forrest, stop the battering of little seals and by all means get a bike with a huge saddle to move around in stead of a big gas guzzling car to drag your huge ass around. THOSE … deluted man, are noble fights.

I find it strange that anyone really gives a good god damn what anyone really is IRL. The mind boggles.

All I know for sure, is that prok is generally incomprehensible and mean. Vint is generally comprehensible and nice. Thats all that really matters here.

I still dont see where the gender (physical or mental) even begins to come in.

Prokofy obviously has dreadfully poor eye sight and can’t make heads nor tails of anything visual: Vint, I really wished I read your artical about how to engage with Prokofy, because it was advice I needed in retrospective.

To say the things she has said against you is vicious, and yet she has no accountablity to the truth and this is, possibly because she has a problem with prejudical thoughts.. and the definations she puts out that she herself has been “attacked” all the holidays (yeah I read that crap on her blogg) well isn’t it the case, she communicates like a bastard, and people treat her as she treats others..

I’m not giving grifters the benifit of the doubt, but there has got to be some accountablity for the bile that she keeps spewing and then only expects phrase and good cheer???? WTF??

I think she also has a problem with you Vint because your name comes up in relationship to “child skins” an overwhelming problem of psychological intolerance to the point of psychosis in Prokofy’s mind.

I found Prokofy’s page via Crap Mariner who was reviewed by Tina’s Universum (in Swedish), and was not entirely unimpressed by some of the thought process, but then she spoils the punch by spewing her/his poisonous point of view. I can’t relate to someone who can seriously choose to be a bastard… and that is her/his choice.

I think Prokofy also sees Vint as possibly “too thin” maybe because there is a stance..which Momus wrote about long ago before Prokofy started blogging about the bias of those who would not hire people based upon THINNESS.. If Prokofy wants to take a stance on Overweightness.. or Underweightness.. she/he should stop using these smoke screens as the cover for the real feelings she/he has..

And naturally since its a pot calling the kettle black issue concerning gender, she/he should just inspect herself carefully before requiring a “dna test” (OMG!!!)

Prokofy is just the voice of the reactionary, the voice that echoes establishment and has nothing to do with false flags such as age or wisdom or even experience nor even buisness savy.. nor does what she/he has to do with gender, nothing at all to do with an intelligence what so ever, it has something to do with causing reaction, its a reaction that doesn’t go away, but we can all diminish the voice of the troll by laughing, not being vicious, but just laughing and making it go away.

Best wishes Vint, I think you are so very beautiful!!! :D

Prokofy, insulting people like that is not wanted anywhere. Let’s say you and Vint were, “mortal enemies”. It’s still not right. Right now, you’re acting like a drunk college kid, mocking Vint just because you think you’re better. And don’t get me started on your “bad hair lifetime” calling. Would you like to add more phrases to the English dictionary, sir Prok? Jeez.

But more importantly, why do you fucking care?! Let’s assume that in some other far, far away reality Vint is a guy dressed as a girl. Why in heck’s name would you even care? Do you want to point out people’s uncommon qualities as something bad? Do you live on harassments, rumor spreading and virtual drama? The point you make such a huge mess about Vint either being a male or female, bringing it up to a level of a full-scale blog post, you really do have a[nother] problem.

If you really want to know why people hate you so much that they start crusades to “ruin your good name”, it’s because you piss them off like hell. What goes around comes back around, idiot. Newton’s Third Law of Motion, only socially.

I’m 15, and I’ve passed the point-and-laugh phase a long time ago. It’s time you pass it. Grow up.

P.S.: If you really want a DNA test to see if Vint is really a female, I can just go ahead and claim you inhuman. Please, bring me a DNA sample to verify you are human. Until then, you are an inhumane bastard to me.

Pork, you *need* to protest against those things? Sounds more like *want* than need - food, water, etc. those are needs.

Besides, I think you probably posted those two things yourself, so that you can use it as an excuse to go around hijacking other people’s blogs and commit acts of Internet terrorism. Admit it Pork, you set those things up as strawmen so you can go around chanting how horrible everyone else is and draw attention to yourself, it’s to drive traffic to your own site.

Personally, I think it’s a pretty clever way to drive traffic, not unlike how Rush Limbaugh gets his numbers, via saying things that are so unrealistic and unbelievable that his enemies flock to his shows to yell at him. Very clever Pork, and providing the link to your blog via your comment proves that I’m right - this is just a readership stunt.

And you constantly refer to your ‘invisible legions of supporters’, which I think are just a bunch of alts of your own echoing back your views, so it appears that you have people who care about your point of view. I’m surprised you haven’t enlisted their ‘help’ by logging in as them and posting to this thread about you to ‘confirm’ how right you are.

I don’t think they exist Pork, seriously, I think your ego is so huge that you believe your own lie. That ‘the silent masses’ support your point of view and that ‘a little cheating’, by creating some of your own supporters to echo your words is justified by your ‘noble goal’.

Come out of the woodwork Pork and admit that you do it, we all know you do.

Raul,

It does seem to be important to PN. Much the way the notorious radio preacher “Brother Stair” goes apoplectic about women wearing pants (trousers to our English friends), PN regularly raves about “vicious little manginas”, applying said label to whatever SL resident of female avatar upon whom PN decides, for whatever unreason, to dump that day.

I think it says far more about PN than about any so described.

So, Dark, done saving Darfur and curing cancer for the day, are you? Got time to post on forums?

Re: “youth will -always- take over. You are going to die.”

ROFL. Save the basket, dear.

Why do I care about Vint’s gender? I don’t. Who could care? But I sense there’s an issue here for her/him. I find a very common pattern of people who harass me in SL is that they are manginas. They are conflicted about their own transgendering, and they obsess about me.

Vint has obsessed about my criticism of her and her blog since the beginning, in the typical inflated neuralgic hysteria of the SL youth.

In time, she’ll grow up and get a read job — and possibly a haircut, as well.

>vituperative limpet

ROFL I love that term. I may use that! is it trademarked!

I’m seeing lots and lots of churn here from Vint’s fan base, but I’m not getting, er, an authentic story from any of them that would REALLY clinch it. Doubt remains.

Prok,

You’re clearly engaging in what’s known as “Ad-Hominem” attacks to distract people from the actual issue… that being whatever this rant spouted from in the first place (most likely the article Vint pointed at above). You say that you “asked a question” but it’s clear to even the most casual observer that you asked the question in order to be nasty and cruel.

I find it very interesting that you accuse people of griefing you, yet you are doing just that by smearing people as best you can OUTSIDE of SL which is, honestly, the worst type of griefing. You said it yourself that you “fight back as hard and as dirty as I can possible muster.” What I believe you fail to comprehend is that it is the dirty fighting itself that you do that perpetuates the negative perception you have managed to garner among some people (no matter what their gender) in SL.

I’ve never met Vint in RL and, honestly, I don’t care about Vint’s RL gender. Neither should you.

Melissa,

You asked “shouldn’t that be ad feminam in this case?” No, in spite of the fact that ad hominem is usually translated as “against the man” the term “hominem” actually means “person” so it’s not gender specific.

I’m not surprised WRT prok’s behavior. What he/she fails to realize is that it’s self perpetuating.

‘I’m not surprised WRT prok’s behavior. What he/she fails to realize is that it’s self perpetuating. ”

Actually, Anony, PN knows that exceedingly well. It’s one way to generate traffic: be sufficiently obnoxious or detached from reality that people read either from sheer rage or to get the perverse jollies one derives from reading the rants of Francis E. Dec or Dr. Bronner’s soap labels.

Ok - a comment from a total outsider here ….

Personally I have no interest in knowing Vint’s gender - but I would say from looking at the picture that we are dealing with a female.

Prokofy Neva - From your posts I get ONE distinct sensation - call it female instinct if you will - that NO proof, photos, signed statements from any number ob OB-GYN’s, or the words of people that met her will EVER convince you that Vint is indeed female.

I am even guessing that IF you were invited to join her at the ob-gyn’s office and allowed to look for yourself for the irrefutable proof - you would not keep the appointment. You do not want to be proven wrong, you do not want Vint to be a female - in fact you do not really care about her gender - you care about slamming, mudslinging - and most of all : getting attention!!!

I pitty you .. you must really have a desperate lack of important things to care about in your life - or maybe you are using cyberspace to hide from real life and avoid dealing with it - wrapping yourself in a comforting virtual blanket of feeling important .. I don’t know, nor do I care to know… but clearly you need to think some things through ….

This is my first, last and only comment in this thread

Prok - get help!

Vint - step back and ignore it all - don’t enable - don’t allow this to have any sort of impact on you :)

Blessings
Hannah
