Sit down boys and girls! I've got a story to tell you all! :D
Now, some of you might be familiar with a comic series on e621 called Guilmon practices karate.
It's a fairly dark rape comic in which the titular Guilmon gets raped repeatedly. I kinda like it even though it's badly drawn... Not important!
What some of you might also know is that the author of this comic became the victim of sustained and repeated harassment from a user named LePepper. My my, look at that track record!
LePepper claimed to have started a small army with the sole purpose of stopping the comic because his beloved fictional character was getting fictionally injured. There were multiple ban-evades, off-side drama. The works.
Today a certain individual contacted me over skype (who we'll call CM to protect the deranged) and we had THIS conversation:
[16:25:53] CM: Are you familiar with hector21314?
[16:26:21] ME: mmmm yeah! that name rings a bell
[16:26:27] CM: Guilmon being raped?
[16:26:37] ME: yeaaah thats it
[16:26:38] CM: A private military interveening it?
[16:26:40] CM: Yeah.
[16:26:54] CM: I'm part of that military.
Okay. Straight away I can see where this was going - presumably to recruit me into his bullshit army. I was tempted to block him right off the bat but he sent me the next up-coming page and, well, I was morbidly curious to see how deep the rabbit hole goes...
[16:29:05] ME: why does he care? because at this point it looks like Pepper might be the one who's nuts
[16:29:24] CM: He has a very dear person to him.
[16:29:29] CM: That person is a guilmon.
[16:29:41] ME: I reiterate: nuts
[skip a few lines]
[16:30:47] ME: his dear friend is not guillimon.
[16:30:56] CM: You cannot prove that.
[16:30:58] ME: ...
[16:31:04] ME: are you fucking with me?
[16:31:09] CM: No.
[16:32:16] ME: oh god, you're pepper, arn't you?
[16:32:18] CM: No.
[a few lines further]
[16:36:01] ME: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digimon#Conception_and_creation This is digimon. it's a TV show.
[16:36:18] CM: It's a TV show Akiyoshi Hongo made because he met a greymon.
[16:36:24] CM: He took his encounter creatively.
[16:36:29] CM: Pepper takes his politically.
[16:36:32] ME: wow, you ARE insane.
[16:36:37] CM: No. I'm educated.
[16:36:44] CM: And by the way
[16:36:48] CM: DCMO has guns
[16:36:50] CM: DCMO has armor
[16:36:54] CM: DCMO has bullets
[16:36:57] CM: DCMO has troops.
[16:37:02] CM: I'm one of the units.
[16:37:09] CM: Here's me and my squad.
Here he sent me a picture of 6 soldiers in pretty serious looking gear. Definitely soldiers and not internet geeks. Naturally, I believed this about as far as I can throw a dinosaur.
But then came the royal crown of bullshit...
[16:38:22] CM: This is a greymon we saw in Amsterdam.
And what he sent was a re-textured dinosaur with a skull attached to it's face, badly superimposed on a hilly green landscape.
[16:39:04] ME: ... you are fucking hilarious :V
[16:39:14] ME: that's one of the worst photoshops i've seen
[16:39:24] CM: Could be because it's real.
[16:39:31] CM: I took that picture, kiddo.
[16:39:35] ME: it looks fake because it's real?
[16:39:50] CM: It looks un-photoshopped because it's a raw phone picture.
[16:40:03] ME: and this is a recent picture?
[16:40:08] CM: No.
[16:40:15] CM: Taken in 2012, April 19
[16:40:46] ME: at 254x141 pixels.
[16:40:50] ME: in 2012.
[16:40:58] ME: with nothing for scale.
[16:41:01] CM: Pepper editted it for his computer background
[16:41:19] ME: you're the biggest idiot in the world if you believe that's real
[16:41:30] CM: Weird. I took that picture, mate.
[16:41:39] CM: That means I saw the beast with my own eyes.
It became apparent (if it wasn't apparent already) that I was dealing with either a compulsive liar, or someone severely delusional. Conversation continues:
[16:47:16] CM: I haven't done any trolling.
[16:47:20] CM: I hate trolls.
[16:47:33] ME: But you ARE telling people you're an armed militia
[16:47:43] CM: No.
[16:47:56] CM: We're a PMC that rescues and cares for animals from a different dimension.
[16:47:59] ME: yes you are. you just did
[16:48:09] CM: We're not animals.
[16:48:11] ME: police don't give a fuck what your motives are
[16:48:31] CM: Yeah. Even though DCMO helped them raid a gangster hideout
[16:49:00] CM: And soon help them save a young little guilmon.
[16:49:02] CM: on a comic.
[16:49:04] ME: sure. keep telling yourself that. I just hope you get bored BEFORE you do something really stupid.
At this point I realised I was wasting time and I wanted to write up this experience, so I blocked him. However I then realised I had to UN-block him so I could see the conversation history, and inadvertently the conversation started up again, this time about the comic itself.
[16:59:37] ME: yeah but you realise it's a fictional situation right?
[16:59:42] CM: I do.
[16:59:44] ME: it's not a thing that's happening
[16:59:52] CM: Pepper may or may not.
[16:59:56] CM: It's likely he does know.
[17:00:10] CM: But nonetheless, he wouldn't want to see such a thing like a guilmon being raped
[17:00:15] CM: Fiction or nonfiction.
[17:00:15] ME: So he may or may not be aware what's real and what isn't. Is that what you're saying?
[17:00:26] CM: Possibly.
[17:00:31] CM: His sanity tests show positive though.
[17:00:42] ME: okay, just checking
[17:01:00] CM: He might have type 2 mania.
[17:01:07] CM: But that brings on anger problems.
[17:01:19] CM: He does have a form of autism
[17:01:20] CM: Aspergers.
Sooo, we talked for a good long while about who his dumb group was and why it was inexplicably focused on a fictional comic. He explained the 'DCMO' were for the far-right, they were a non-profit organization for the protection of animals (and digimon), they're all really dangerous dudes who kill people for "injustice" and despite being non-profit, they are also paid mercenaries, who are paid by members of their own organization, who are also government affiliated. Wow.
We also talked about gun ethics which I'll leave out here because we know how that goes. :V The short version was that the DCMO should be allowed to kill who they want for whatever reason they want. And also that LePepper might not have a great grip on reality but that's fine because of reasons.
A while later I wanted to talk about the digimon picture again.
[17:55:13] ME: So, YOU took that picture?
[17:55:24] CM: Yes.
[17:55:58] ME: And by 'took' you mean there was a digimon in front of you, in a valley, and you raised your camera, pressed a button, and that's what came out?
[17:56:11] CM: That's what Pepper told me to do.
[17:56:17] CM: Yes.
[17:56:40] ME: so by that I take it to mean you were visiting Amsterdam?
[17:56:58] CM: Sent there.
[17:57:05] ME: Sent to Amsterdam.
[17:57:16] ME: Where in Amsterdam is that?
[17:57:37] CM: Along the north of Amsterdam.
[17:57:42] CM: I was not the pilot of the apache.
[17:57:57] ME: looks hilly. was it near the mountains?
[17:58:14] CM: There were mountains in the area, yeah.
[17:58:28] ME: the Netherlands are famous for being flat. :V
[17:58:45] CM: That doesn't mean there's flatness everywhere.
[17:58:53] CM: The creature had to keep itself hidden.
[17:59:35] ME: so it's in a remote hilly area that's just north of one of the busiest cities in Europe? in a small and developed country? completely undiscovered?
[17:59:50] CM: Undiscovered area? No.
[17:59:57] CM: I'm sure it's been visited before.
[18:00:12] CM: Possibly even occupied now.
[18:00:22] ME: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-yTpaESzkU :3
[18:02:04] CM: Mk.
So, while this was going on (and between some other idle chat) I decided to try and find the source for the two pictures. With the help of a friend, I found the exact source for each:
So naturally, I asked if he was one of the squad that killed Osama Bin Laden!
[18:53:09] ME: so, that picture you sent of your 'squad'
[18:53:27] ME: are you sure that isn't seal team six, the guys who shot bin laden?
<I sent the link to the SEAL team six>
[18:57:27] ME: I mean, it's fine. I've done stupid shit before too
[18:59:50] CM: Seal team six wear masks.
[19:01:06] ME: but yeah, there's the link to the same picture you sent me. of seal team 6.
[19:01:22] CM: Pepper may have hired himself some SEALs.
[19:02:20] ME: a non-profit far right military organization "hired" seals?
[19:02:48] CM: Seals are bad mothers.
[19:03:02] ME: also I'd like to ask again about the picture 'you' took. it's very clearly on someone's deviant art page.
[19:03:22] CM: Show.
<I sent the digimon photoedit link>
[19:04:36] CM: I see someone took a screenshot of the news.
[19:04:56] ME: it's very clearly labled as a photomanipulation
[19:05:07] CM: Says screenshot.
[19:05:13] ME: Digital Art / Photomanipulation / Fantasy©2009-2014 Asgard7
[19:05:24] CM: Doesn't say that for me.
[19:05:46] ME: right so... what news network is that? "global news"?
[19:05:51] CM: Photography / Screenshots / Media©2009-2014 Asgard7
[19:06:06] CM: I reported the photo to Amsterdam
[19:06:16] CM: Amsterdam media.
[19:06:28] ME: oh my GOD. try to lie a bit better at least!
[19:06:42] CM: It's hard to lie when you're being honest, mate.
[19:06:50] ME: you're hilarious.
The conversation broke down pretty fast after that. CM started talking about LePepper like he was batman. I just started to feel sorry for him.
What I did learn however was LePeppers' email, the name of CM and another goon who was apparently his 'bodyguard' (though I find it highly likely both of these are merely aliases for LePepper himself) and also that LePepper and Hector have supposedly called a peace between eachother and guilmon will be saved by DCMO troops.
Not sure what to make of this odd encounter. I feel like telling people you're in an armed gang who kills people is probably breaking some kind of law, but I have no idea if that's even worth my time or effort. Clearly LePepper is still using the site, laying low under another account that is as-of-yet unbanned. (I will relinquish whatever information I can to admins if requested).
I guess the moral of the story is, if you must be insane, at least try to be plausibly insane.
EDIT: Apologies in advanced for my typos. Spelling is not my strong point when I'm without a spellchecker. Apologies again to admins if the topic is not appropriate, but it was just too good not to share.
