You have my attention Jenn. Please tell me in laymens terms what > exactly BoaterDave is doing or attempting to do here? I haven't read in depth any other threads but this one.. I've skimmed a couple other threads. From what I've read he is doing the same thing he does all the time .. he is attempting to find out the truth about who people are and if they are being straight up with him, or if they are shining him on. He will keep asking questions, touching hot buttons, and irritating anyone who he isn't sure about .... (I don't mean to write a book here.. just explaining what I'm trying to say...) Sometimes, if you can get a person irritated, it's almost like a dare, then that person puffs out his chest (figuratively), and then blurts out information they normally wouldn't say because their guard is down. That's when you find out what a person is really made of....when their guard is down. It's similar to this ... There are people who post on a server called Annexcafe. While they post over there they are abliged to submit to certain posting rules that keep them *in line*, so to speak. Many of those same people post on a couple groups on usenet. There is a freedom that exists on usenet that doesn't exist on the other server, so who a person really is comes out when there are no rules to moderate their behavior, and no compelling force exists that they must submit to in order to participate. So, if they are the same nice person on usenet that they are on AC, it's probably a good conclusion that they are a nice person, but if they turn into godzilla on usenet and are nice person galore on AC... you can come to a different conclusion as to their true nature. It's the same way with hitting peoples hot buttons ... it's easier to find out who a person really is if you touch their hot button because how they respond to being irritated or frustrated or even free from outside restraint reveals more of their true character, therefore, revealing their true nature. That true nature can just mean they are just generally naturally more emotional when they respond to frustrations (simply speaking), or it can mean that they are really deep down either a good or a bad person judging from their responses over a period of time, or it can even just show a more complicated individual who struggles with the normal every day junk that everyone else deals with. > Also, can you tell > me what his interest is in myself? and what he hopes to gain > knowledgewise from pestering me? Perhaps he is doing the same thing with you that he did with me when he was trying to get to know me.. and that is.. he just kept asking me direct questions about things... like my bbs, and if I used any sort of virus protection on it.. stuff like that ( I don't remember everything...) he kept asking... and I'd answer him to the best of my ability. If he wasn't satisfied.. he ask again .. LOL I had a moment where I had a choice as to whether or not I was going to be irritated by it or find a way to understand why he kept asking. I chose the latter.. try to understand him....... Frankly, I think he likes you and always has, but he has had some doubts because of your particular skill set... He's more or less putting you to the test to see if you're a good guy or a bad guy, and I believe he really wants you to be a good guy. I already told him I believed you to be a good guy... now he has to figure that out for himself, and part of that is also dependent on how you respond because some responses can give the wrong impression even if that isn't your intent... if that or anything I've said makes sense. :) -- Jenn (from Oklahoma)

I give everyone the benefit of the doubt once, unless the individual already made it clear that civil correspondense isn't on the agenda (re: Toxic). David will even tell you I was polite and very civil with his email correspondence until his questions went beyond support for BugHunter. As he is often doing here, his questions were about other individuals and I wouldn't discuss them with him. We haven't been friends (heh) since then. He says I became a whitehat and got too busy with malwarebytes to help him further. That isn't the truth. The truth was I wasn't going to answer questions about people or anything that wasn't specifically and only about BugHunter; that annoyed him. He's been trying to dig up dirt on me ever since. :) The guys a nutjob. -- "Hrrngh!
