Recruiting

Some in Skypeland make it a mission to recruit others to disrupt a discussion. Although the sniffling unemployed muck expert from the UK, Mucus has done this on a small scale, the champion of disruptive recruiting is clearly the mystery man A:

*BT, a college student and ardent conspiracy theorist from Florida who seems to not only believe the most ludicrous things, but to aggressively demand that others not question any of his crazy screwball ideas [1] [2]

*J, a sycophantic graduate student in the liberal arts who seems to be a bit of an antiSemite and has some other striking shortcomings. I am considering how much more of the extensive material I have on J to make public. J has stridently challenged me to "defend myself" on more than one occasion. So far I am holding back. If I am to continue to hold back, I must have some reason to do so. At this point, no reasons have yet appeared.

*M, a notorious internet troll who has been banned from well over a dozen internet venues for disruption.

*CD, a notorious Holocaust denier and anti-Semite

Interestingly, several of these "hired guns" that the mystery man A has recruited are essentially "internet nomads", a term coined by a moderator in Skypeland. An "internet nomad" is someone who has often started out as a simple internet troll, but their situation has deteriorated considerably. As these disruptive elements wear out their welcome in one internet forum after another, they become rootless without some sort of "internet home", and essentially "nomads" on the internet. They travel around, trying to engage others so they can lecture them about their own particular area of interest, such as Holocaust denial, chemtrails, Building 7, antiZionism, etc.

For someone who claims that he has no interest in what goes on in Skypeland, the "mystery man A" sure seems to want to monitor the Skypeland discussions all the time. For someone who claims that he has no interest in what I and others might think of various topics, the "mystery man A" sure seems to go out of his way to demand that we do not disagree with his views. The "mystery man A" records people and attacks them and threatens them if they say things he deems inappropriate. For someone who professes to not care what I and others think of him, the "mystery man A" sure seems to make excessive efforts to present himself in a negative way. For someone who allegedly wants a pleasant environment, the "mystery man A" sure seems to go out of his way to try to recruit people to disrupt discussions in Skypeland on purpose. He seems to pass around rumors and misrepresentations to try to cause rancor.

To me, it sounds like pure desperation.
