you're not related to the owners/operators of TBN are you?

No, I'm not. But let's see how long it takes for someone to figure out my true identity.

Not really hard to figure out that you are Gatorboy from TBN. You go under the name of Joppajellyfish in the Adult Profile of Yahoo.

Now we will show the supporting evidence...... Your post from TBN...... as you will note, you make referance to the land for sale at 2001 Watervale Road, Fallston, MD (http://watervale.harfordsports.com/) . To the thread where this was posted....... (http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=off&Number=705363&Forum=All_Forums&Words=gatorboy&Match=Entire%20Phrase&Searchpage=1&Limit=25&Old=allposts&Main=704173&Search=true)

Now, here is your profile from TBN...........

Now, the only question left to be answered is

Why did you come to ForumsForums? Was it to cause problems or was it to be a participating member? I find your choice of membership name to be interesting. Were you trying to inflame the membership by using the name of one of the owners of TBN? Just about everyone here that originated from TBN used the same name here as they used at TBN. Is there any reason that you didn't????? Welcome to ForumsForums, where you can speak about any topic as long as you are civil.

I have my guess. He put TBN in his profile as his homepage...

I doubt if Ibrahim would have done that.

01-19-2006, 08:33 PM
I'm thinking the homepage was to further the name association.

I'd say his grammar does tend to mimic Gatorboy's some, So does Junkman's evidence make it definitive or are there other possibilities yet?

Ding Ding Ding .... we have a WINNER!

Did I come here to cause problems? Are you kidding me? I'm a rookie among those on this forum in that category.

I tried to use the handle Muhammad, but that handle was unavailable. Don't worry, I won't be hanging out here much -- you can all go back to your love-fest.

Ok, why the choice of name? And why the guessing game [though I'm slightly guilty of that myself]?:confused:

Junkman - Good work! I'm not worthy.

Still kind of strange that Gatorboy had to come here and use Ibrahim's handle? What's up with that? That kind of shenanigans begs for a critical view from others.

Some people are just weird though.

Ahhhhhhhhh.......Surprizing since your from the site that supports such chit and host FLAME INC. Go back to your puritan home and obvious hypocricy!

Maybe he thought with his enlightenment he would succeed and be invited to moderate here where he has failed on you know where!

You continue to show your ignorance! If you only knew what people really thought of you on TBN you might just absorb some civility. I (and I might add many others at TBN) ignore your post on TBN knowing it was going to be a trivial highlight of computer deficiency. Other than being a self proposed computer genius and TBN statistic nerd with a "everyone else is a computer idiot" attitude, your patheticly a "legend in your own mind." I think it's time for you to go somewhere where your cynicism is relished.

Honestly, do you think I really care what you think?

There are plenty of users I don't care for, but that's normal -- just as in your everyday life, there are people you like to associate with and those that you don't. Do you think everyone likes you?

I believe that is a rather strange comment. I don't really know you except for your posting at TBN. I neither love you, nor do I dislike you. I have no feelings one way or the other. You are just one more of the more than 20,000 people that are registered at TBN. You did throw out the challenge to figure out exactly who you were, which I did. I don't believe that you tried very hard to mask your identity, so it was a relatively easy challenge. Welcome to our ForumsForums.......

Your post shows the difference between this forum and others.

On another forum, your post would of probably been deleted in less than five minutes.

You're right, I don't care what you think, and per your post here, you come across as a big asshole. The question is if you're intentionally (sp?) trying to be one, or if that is just your nature.

The question is why did you even bother posting here?

I tried.. but failed.

W/ your property for sale.. are you moving out of Maryland? The new tax assesments have skyrocketed.. mine was over a 81% increase.. luckily the county has a yearly 5% cap.

GatorBoy I guess you did raise some eyebrows, flaired a few tempers, by playing the "Ibraham card" registration.. but you also got some people thinking. I think it's part of the fun being on the web.. having a mystery guest.. I thought it was entertaining.. makes life interesting.

Nope, the plan is to sell the property and sit on the cash until the Real Estate bubble bursts and then find an older home on 2-5 acres and it be the last place I ever buy.

Sorry, I meant some and I stand by my implication that many think your an overbearing jerk! Do you really think you come across any other way?

Nope, I just wanted to reassure you I don't like your pompous attitude. It just makes me feel good to display my feelings, something that can be done at FF! Go find a good forum where you can be the resident jerk, oops sorry you already did that! Why would you spend time on a forum you so greatfully acknowledge ain't gonna last other than to ply the FLAME trade your buddies breed and endorse at TBN. I get the feeling you were a little premature with your feelings being you've hung around another day.

Hell NO, there are a lot of people that don't like me. Like you, I don't care but I don't go out of my way to belittle people to confirm it!

Wow, I just got back and look at all the attention you have received! This place aint so bad, huh? Not only would you have not gotten much attention like this on TBN, but your posts would have been deleted in a heartbeat. I bet you stick around here longer than you ever thought you would. I, for one, welcome you.
As to your quote above, once again it seems that you are speaking for other people. According to Junk, he has no feelings for you whatsoever so put that love bit out of your mind, OK?
Now, if you wanted to start a homosexual forum here at FF, you are going to have to talk to Doc. :gay: :reacharou :bigMoon:

I am not angry at Gatorboy. He and I do not know each other at all. I did not mean to offend him as I would not have been offended if someone wrote that post to me.

Dave, I never had a problem with you at TBN; maybe it's because you still have sand in your shoes even though you're not living in Florida, right now.

I found your use of the Ibrahim sign-on kind of funny, and I said so early on in some private "guesses" as to who you were (I guessed it was not the real Ibrahim and that you were trying to be "cute").

Like I said earlier, what makes this forum unique is that you can say whatever you want (without getting deliberately insulting), and if it makes sense, people will actually respond and take part. I think that if you relax a little, you can take part over here to whatever extent you like. Some folks avoid the political, some avoid the off-color stuff, some avoid Snow Tracks. It's a lot like cable TV; you only watch the channels you like. TV doesn't have a core theme, either, and has survived pretty well.

Stick around and take part.

There are probably a couple of folks who don't like me, much, either (you might even be one of them), but that doesn't matter as long as you're enjoying yourself.

The person that registered here as Ibrahim, is in fact Gatorboy who is also a member at TBN. He made about 15 posts as Ibrahim before I had unmasked his true identity when he made the challenge to identify him. He is not the same Ibrahim that is one of the management team of TBN. Please don't confuse the issue and make assumptions based on just a name. Ibrahim, from TBN, is not a member here to the best of my knowledge. We have changed the registration that Gatorboy made as Ibrahim to his real identity, so now Ibrahim appears as Gatorboy. Gatorboy also made a second registration this morning and that violated our Terms of Service, so that membership was deleted and the few posts made under that Gatorboy moniker now show up as Gatorboy - Guest. Hope that this clears up the issue for all.
