the "evidence"

vancouverites
sinophiles
both would post weird sexist shit - dylann less often but would drop the occasional "bitch" or what have you, always stood out on this board
both talked about doing translations
in different threads they talked about their personal grooming (you know, of their junk)

Oh huh. Didn’t think it could be dylannn

i am willing to accept that dylann is another subsock of the sockpuppetmaster of ilx but infinty is not a sock of dylann nor viceversa

dylannn has some hits, i thought

dylann’s real. i’ve corresponded with him offboard before.

fun fact ppl running socks cant write emails

I'm just saying it was a vibe i got and here is the circumstantial ya know. not making any claims

dylann is a pretty interesting and creative guy if rough around the edges. infinity seemed... dumb.... so i doubt it’s the same person

dylannn had the hotel front desk and the cigarettes threads

I think i’ve read dylann’s published writing too. I feel like I vetted his identity but then again I’ve been duped before.

this is not a srs thread of investigation*

*still i jaccuse afl

with dylannn it was always hard to know what was real tbh

xp - dylann kinda ripped the hotel concept off of hoos tho

the main difference is obviously that people like dylann and think he's a good poster and that is not the case with infinity

I don’t think deems is being serious fwiw but I never really got that whole buzza et al thing of “every bad poster is someone in disguise”

Xps!

i mean, that doesn't make him a "bad poster" just that, it was somewhat derivative content, but like this is ilx so it would be awkward to apply rockist standards to threads and posters

xp its part pump priming some fuckin fun part genuine infinty was too on the nose part afl paranoia

they both had a certain "tryhard" quality in terms of being liked on ilx or being perceived to be cool ... idk ... being liked is a nice thing to want ... i am willing to consider this theory in other words

Like to what end does someone take the time to run another account that’s a bit like them but worse

*clears throat*

part "nakh isnt gone hes just fractured"

but im p sure theyd be better socks in that case

latebloomer ran better socks too otherwise a contender

obv the germanic sock machine run out of a london pub is real and is the underlying cancer of the board

quite, the best socks were made in America

I’m surprised we’re not targeted more. It doesn’t take mucj to cause havoc on this board.

It doesn’t take much to cause havoc in a rest home either but where’s the sport

Hahaha

i for one am very active, if you know what i mean!

The joke’s the same but the content’s always fresh ❄️

in death race 2000 you score extra points for the elderly idk

for some reason i was thinking infinity symbol guy implied he sometimes reviewed music in a professional capacity but that was probably wrong or a bluff

artful smokescreen

i don't want to live in a world where people review music in an unproffesional capacity

i thought infinity symbol might have been "uh oh i'm having a fantasy"

that was what I thought too, for some reason that I no longer recall

I have no concept of what that poster was like

xp - i thought the same because at one point one went away, the other appeared, and they seemed similar - but it was at a time where we were at "peak symbol name" for ilx posters iirc

lol I never even noticed infinity symbol standing out as being any different from all the other ilxors that merge into an amorphous lump. there are a few I register as being particular individual posters but not that many tbh. What were his worst posts?

Lots of posts about the size of his dick and how much sex he had

Don't know any of these people, must be going to the wrong, or right, threads.

I think it’s safe to assume that the posts about all the cool sex he has are as credible as his posts about all the cool sox he has

I will miss infinity

i'm not sure what exactly is under discussion here. i have no comment on infinity symbol. posting 11 years (and before that as whatever i posted as) through most of my 20s there were some rough posts in there that i would apologize for (several were last week, unfortunately) and would prefer were never seen by human eyes and i was often too familiar with my ilx friends which i chalk up to reading the board hundreds thousands of hours but posting very little after, like, 2010 + relative anonymity (but i linked to articles i wrote with my full name on them! and my book! partly i guess people that knew me and who i talked to on aim or irl stopped posting here, though, and i think part of maintaining ilx credibility is posting enough that people don't have to look up your past posts and see you telling the world horrible things about yourself) and a limited number of options for ungoogleable and mostly sympathetic places to spill my guts.

reading threads about regular posters everyone apparently hates is so depressing, it makes me feel like i'm not reading closely enough or something because for most of them i have no opinions beyond "oh yeah i do remember seeing that dn on a lot of posts"

and because i overpersonalize everything it makes me wonder what obnoxious posting habits i have that people will complain about when i'm gone (probably overpersonalizing everything)

infinity was very schticky and an extreme outlier

consistently terrible (but otherwise unremarkable)

new board etc

“reading threads about regular posters everyone apparently hates is so depressing, ”
^^^

i dunno about apparently hates apart from wins but thing about wins is that its more he has a dry critical eye when categorising these things imo

i just amnt sure that infinity actually exists which is obv a different thing

It’s a bit obtuse to act like everyone’s randomly laying into some earnest unassuming poster here. That dumb valedictory thread says it all, this was a dude who was going out of his way to get a reaction - the fact that it fell flat and only produced a mild eyeroll is neither here nor there (although it sums up his posting career quite well)
