Kevin73Kevin73 was/is a regular poster chalking up over 8,000 posts. Somewhere around post 5100 however, something had changed on the board causing tension between moderator Viciousbubble and Kevin73. He gained acceptance by running a contest where whoever posted the best picture got an iPod mini. The contest resulted in some very regrettable pictures (mostly from Bob ) but eventually Maus ended up winning it. By all accounts Kevin actually did send it out because this was before he went totally insane. Why did he go off the deep end? Reasons from research seem to point to a lot of Tard Blocking from Viciousbubble enacted upon Kevin73's more "important" threads and insightful polls about if other users on the site liked him or not. But Kevin73's story really begins (and seemingly doesn't ever end) with his exceedingly clever and inventive use of alternate profiles (alts). Originally starting (at least, officially) with an alternate profile for a young mexican/jewess who was going to be all upons with Viciousbubble for poking some tasteful fun at Judism, Kevin73 was attempting to 'hit back' Viciousbubble for his late April, early May 2006 overbearance on the site as a moderator who had brought a girlfriend back to the message boards. Viciousbubble had seemingly fallen prey to Yoko-Ono syndrome in the form of user Lackluster. He spent a magical trip in Seattle with a female human and went to Pizza Passion and that was the end of his playful demeanor, not to resurface until the subsequent break up. The incessent Tard Blocking of Kevin73's threads led him to create his first and greatest alt, ninjapenguin. It all went downhill from there as Kevin73 only dug himself deeper. Kevin73 known alternate user names: ninjapenguin, wetspot, scooter, The CurseofEvilTim!!!, Pantera4Lhyfe, ViscousBabble, blueonblak, WTFisGoingOn, Othello? Through the alts, and leading to all of their downfalls, there has been the same basic patterns. Kevin73's basic menu as summed up by No-Doz:
(http://www.bad-candy.com/mb/viewtopic.php?t=4864&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=45) Ok, I've narrowed down the original meltdown to sometime in middle May 2006. happy digging. Before he was dubbed the Legendary Strategist, we discovered his plan, and the component phases. first mention of the "phases" of his plan, which everyone promptly began mocking extensively: "That is my purpose of staying here. To fuck with you and VB. By whatever means necessary." "That is part of the plan, sir kainslate..." Kevin73 at one point said- ...That would be pretty sad if I went to therapy over a message board. No, the message board just happened to be a topic of discussion in one of my previous sessions. Thats what led to a medicine re-evaluation. first mention of legendary strategist: http://www.bad-candy.com/mb/viewtopic.php?p=170681&highlight=legendary#170681 ''Actually, I never said I was permanently leaving. I said that I couldnt post as often from work, and also that it was just as well because the vocal minority were pricks that kept pushing my buttons (well, not those words, I paraphrased there). However, seeing how nothing on here can ever be taken seriously (imagine that) I've decided to turn it around and have fun with it at the expense and/or joy of others. Mock me, tard block me, whatever. While my original plans of fucking with VB backfired in some ways, they were successful in others. A good strategist carries out all plans accordingly, with or without success. A legendary strategist modifies his/her plans based on circumstances and the opposition.'' here's what got him banned: Banned when he submitted this post in multiple threads at once: OPEN NOTE TO ALL MODS/ADMINS: I have found a mass-posting program to allow me to post to every thread on this board at one time anything I want. The test I made was successful to 3 threads at one time, including creating a thread. Please ban my IP and delete my account and all known alts of mine that have posted from those IPs or I *will* use it. Thank you, and goodbye. Mark's note to self: find the emails where he threatened lawsuits here's this, all kinds of awesome ~droid http://www.bad-candy.com/mb/viewtopic.php?t=4980&highlight=team It should also be known that Kevin may actually be the cause of everything bad in VB's life since the fat rapscallion dared crossed swords with the legend.
