So this weeks victim was NowHearThis, aka PlatyPus, Pwer and Cookypuss. We approached him and he was happy to reply to our questions. Here is what he had to say for himself for his posts in the forums as to if he was Trolling or Anti-Trolling. He replied: “neither, I will describe myself as me.” A very open ended statement, but as always we probed further asking him to explain his inflammatory posts to which he responded “it depends on how the people present themselves, usually I just react on their posts. 90% of the people that I offended had it coming one way or another.”
Interesting. So he doesn't see himself as either, he antagonizes people who have done something to cause it. We probed deeper to see if he worried about any consequences and he said: “I was (hit-listed) for 400k, someone bought me off but I have no idea who and why. After a while I decided to hit-list myself because I was closing in on the top row on the users online list, first 400k, then 1 mil and some anonymous guy was nice enough to add another 1 mil making it 2 mil total such a nice gesture.”
Since he has now been killed (and someone got a tidy 2 million dollars for their trouble) we asked him about his plans for the future since he is now in a crew. He replied: “just visiting axteze for some additional fun. I have no future plans everything will come as they come and we will see how it works out. since school has started I don't have a whole lot time left on my hands.” That is a shame to hear, but it seems to be the case more and more these days!
We probed deeper into what kind of person he attacked in the forums and he told us: “I just go on the forums and see what's around and react accordingly, unlike what most people think I'm not out on burning people, just killing some time one way or another, sad that most of the times it ends in people crying about.”
Changing the topic now we turned back to our previous issue of the Buzz! We asked Pwer if he had read the interview we conducted with blackkettle to which he responded “I do not endorse the buzz.” However “I did, I laughed my ass off, sascha is such a faggot.” He chose to directly comment on what was said stating “I enjoyed it in a different fashion I assume. I agree that some things shouldn't be said, but on the other hand it's an open forum and it's not my fault they might get exposed to bad stuff, that's their parents problem.”
So there you have it! Pwer is a user who attacks people who put up bad posts, targeting them for his own reasons choosing only people who deserve it. But what does that make him? Unfortunately, and contrary to his opinion, this does make him a Troll. He doesn't attack people who attack others, he simply attacks random people because their opinion is different to his own! So there you have it, he receives the official Buzz Troll stamp!
