Bitcoin Forum

If anybody needs anything from me, a close associate will be handling my assets. You'll know where to contact him.

Bye.

[edit] removed my inappropriate post.  Was uncalled for, and I apologize.

That was about time!

If you were expecting sympathy...

Erm, I take transfers to glbse account Konichua or firstbits 1dannye.

I'm calling 911. This appears to be a suicide threat.

If true, not funny.  If not true, still not funny.

Bah, I don't even have 911 where I live. Where does Atlas live, isn't it north of Austin?

Need help? In the U.S., call 1-800-273-8255
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline



Maybe some humor to help this depressing thread:

In Russia, you don't commit suicide, suicide commits you.

In China, they'll charge your family for the loss of money they'll lose by not being able to exploit you.

In Sweden, ah... I'm thinking.

Wait a sec, a close associate? OK, now this makes no sense for a suicide note.

Yes maybe our assumption is wrong.

He might be parachuting and his chute failed to open so he pulled out his phone and logged in as his last will and testament.

OR

He is on a plane that is falling from the sky... see above.

OR

...

Does this mean he is changing names again. Is this the new method where he must does something outrageous? Does he think he is Dr. Who and will regenerate into a new avatar?

Jesus Christ you guys, you're all fucking dicks.

HELP THE DUDE you fucking imbeciles.

Anyway, I called some police department in Austin. They are closed. The message said to call 911, which I cannot where I live.

How is the police department closed?  Ok, so no successful attempts to 911 from anyone?  Goddamnit, I'll call.

Sick joke?  Your posts on the forum are like 10 miles long, I hope everything is OK with you!

By close accociate he means sock puppet master.
Yes I am talking to you, Matthew N. Wright!

Seriously though, he is either a very sophisticated troll who has fooled us all, or he genuinely has some sort of problem, in which case we cannot help him. He will not let us get through to him, you all know that.

Personally, I think he's just a troll :D

 

If the police get involved, he is more than a troll.

FTFY :D
Seriously, you can't get arrested for trolling.
If you could, Matther N. Wright would be on death row.

Called the Austin PD.

I didn't have an address or name to give them, so I gave them his moniker, "Jon," while telling them it is a moniker.  I also gave them the bitcointalk.org website and told them they could find this post in the "off-topic" section.  I also provided them with Theymos's moniker so that they could contact him for Jon's IP which could provide a physical location.

Edit:  If anyone has any better information, call 512 974 5750, the number for the Austin PD that I called.

How can we help him? By giving him a gun so he can be done with it?

Fuck you, cunt.

Isn't his name Immanuel something?

No, not cunt! Dick...
D... I... C... K...

Btw, fuck YOU! Don't you fell like a fool for letting yourself be trolled like this? WTF, get real dude!

Okay, gonna be serious now, this could be actually bad.

Hello police! Here is my information , that I know:
In this, 'atlas' is Jon. Atlas was has original account.
Atlas claims to be ready for communism, with less them 1% of his money in fiat and the rest in food, water, land, ammunition, and gold bullion. Oh, and bitcoin.
Altas never really answers questions(or anything), just changing the subject or claiming to be 'winning'.

Anyone extent this list? I'm tired, can't think of the rest :/

I have to say this is not funny and quite disturbing.

Troll or no troll but I think these kinds of threats are not seen very well by police especially when multiple people call into 911 etc.

Hopefully he will now get the help he needs.

I just received a call back from Austin PD.  They can't do anything without direct identifying information.  A phone number, a last name, or a street address is what they need.  With an IP address they'd have to give it to their forensics unit, so the police can't directly do anything with an IP.

If you can translate that IP into a physical address, then they could use that.

If you have Atlas/Jon's last name, phone number, or physical address, call the Austin PD @ 512 974 5750 to provide them with the information.

any news ?

His ip can be tracked with websites, but only roughly. I live in southern england and those websites reckon I live in scotland.
Give the ip to his isp, boom, they will give you an address.
No forensics needed :3

http://www.yellowpages.com/austin-tx/internet-service-providers-isp (http://www.yellowpages.com/austin-tx/internet-service-providers-isp)

Which one?

Normally with someones ip on the rough address websites they tell you the isp too, they do with me..
Give me his ip and ill tell you.
Mod! Ip logs please?

Tried IRC?

Well, I 'report[ed] to moderator.'  Is that the fastest way to get their attention?

This is his Reddit account:
http://www.reddit.com/user/JonNikopol

That might be his real name...?  
Hope he is alright.

http://identi.ca/notice/92245579 (http://identi.ca/notice/92245579)

Looks like you might be right.  I'll call back...

Thanks monk!

No. I prefer this method:

THEYMOS! YOU ARE NEEDED!

http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip-lookup

Ta-daa! Look up your own ip, it gives loads of info and your isp.

VERY nice find.

Damn! Thought I could get his face, but nothing :(

I called back and provided Austin PD with the name 'Jon Nikopol.'  Also made them aware that it could be a pseudonym.

His name isn't Jon Nikopol, retards.

In other news, it looks like you are all playing along nicely in his desperate call for attention.

I found this:

The twitter account says Georgetown, Texas

^^ This 1000x

Also:
"Suicide attempt" is like a joke. Or they do it or they don't.
Any person who wishes to end their life or attempts to doesn't deserve to be alive anyway.
And anybody who defends personal liberties must understand that every person is free to do whatever they wish, even kill themselves, if that is their will.
Call me stupid if you wish.

Just now found this thread after logging on the computer. Have only read this post. I'm sure I'll find value in reading the rest of this thread. Here I go. Ready to read post #2 and onward to the rest of the thread. This better be good!

~Bruno~

Most of its just psy and some other guy bitching, and practicing spelling.

I'm still reading, but here is where you'll find his address. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=48494.msg577441#msg577441

Which is also in Georgetown, TX.

That is his home address.

I thought that Matthew and Atlas were good buddies and that Matthew had talked to Atlas and/or his parents on the phone at one point.  Maybe Matthew can give his parents a call?

Are you 100% positive this is the one to phone in?

Let me do some quick Google-Fu to make sure. BRB

Ooh, and in the thread he has the same face as cbeasts twitter find!
The police couid do something with this. Cbeast! 911 please!

@burt maybe, but it takes too long to contact matthew and for him to find the number. By then, he would have died. Not of suicide, just old age.

And @the joint, no I am not. I still would believe you if you told me atlas was matthew n. Wright.

This should confirm it. http://domaincoleta.com/whois/bittalk.tv

I also have Matthew's number, if I can find it, coupled with if you guys think I should try to call him to see if he can help.

And for immanuel ortego?

Already ahead of you. See above, the joint. Click link.

Austin PD just called back.  They are monitoring the thread.  They are aware of the address in Georgetown and have notified Georgetown PD.

I guess we did all be can do. I'm going to PM my number to TJ, in case we need to call Matthew.

I'm assuming he works at the Georgetown, TX Walmart or the closest one to his home.

I hope nothing happen to the OP.  God Bless.

That's all the help I can offer then, so I'm going to go to bed now, bye!
Keep updating me on this thread please, so I can read what happened in the morning :)

Agreed. He's probably a nice guy, in need of a hug :3

Bye!

I'm sure the PD has assigned somebody to read all the OP's posts. Where is that thread/post that shows his other accounts? All the information should be made available to the officers to hopefully help the lad.

~Bruno~

Theymos should know all of his many, many accounts.

Man if the OP was just joking that's gonna suck, because he has police involved now!

Is Jon really an alias of Atlas?  If so, what is wrong with this Atlas dude?  He seems to spend 25 hours a day on forums.

Relative? http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3413928&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=167

Also, Jon is 100% Atlas and nobody is trolling in that regards. The proof is the blue room thread and recent YouTube video jive.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=51434.0
Taa-daa!
Your welcome ;)
Actually going now.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=74288.msg822069#msg822069

This ?

And this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I8BPDjUgKI

http://www.youtube.com/user/DjGalco

This is a troll post going horribly well/wrong?

Finally a documented cry for help...

Well is this whole thing in response to the fact Matthew has STOPPED paying attention to him?  That makes a lot of sense.  Matthew swears off trolling. Atlas feels neglected because Matthew has stopped.  Atlas pulls this stunt.

The police called to notify me that they made contact with the subject. He claims that his account was hacked. Case closed.

Really? I wouldn't bet on it.

I don't believe the-account-was-hacked alibi. No way can the police even close this case that quick. Something ain't right. (not taking about you, cbeast, only the facts that you presented)

Good excuse not to pay the bill for emergency services.

Morons...
Nuff' said...

A hack can easily be proved or disproved by the admins here or via the IP on the OP's computer by the officers.

How many family/friends have you lost to suicide? It sucks for everyone. I hope his family gets him the help he needs.

this is freaking terrible.  how old is this kid?  does he live with his parents?  i wonder if his parents know how truely messed up he is and what he does on his computer 24 hours a day.  

seriously he reminds me of Jared Lee Loughner (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jared_Lee_Loughner)

this kid needs to be put on meds and see a shrink. 

Excellent, this is a fine occasion to shut down this and other potentially compromised accounts, all of them  ;)

Three last year alone. Making it look like an accident is definitely kinder to survivors. Of course I'm referring to the real thing, not a "cry for help" gesture.

A good slap on the face... that's all the help he needs...

The ones falling for this troll post are the ones who need serious help.

If this case is truly closed, then I believe that the Georetown police department didn't do due diligence in regards to this situation. There wasn't even enough time to read all the OP's posts, let alone the ones we pointed out to them. How much egg would be on their face if this kid did harm to somebody(s) or himself? This case is not closed by any stretch of the imagination. If it is, I'm sad to say this country is fucked.

~Bruno~

My bad. They didn't say case closed. That was my opinion. They did talk to the family.

Oh we've been fucked for a long time. A very long time.

If it turns out that he wasn't hacked, he'll be getting another visit from the police...

Sweet Jesus. Somebody please lock this thread.

I've penned it before on this forum, and will state it again. I've tried it myself. Each time (twice) over pussy. But it was only a gesture, for in no way did I really want to die. My sister has tried it a small handful of times, but she's a little messed up (not on drugs). I'm pretty sure all her cases were gestures as well, seeking attention or whatever (not a doctor, so not really sure what was being sought). Chances are pretty good I won't be ever doing it again. Not for pussy, lack of money, or (can't even think of another good reason).

~Bruno~

I seriously believe that's what will happen in the end.
At least one thing is confirmed... he's Atlas...

Now that you mention it, this does smell wrong.

OTOH, the police would have the subject's privacy rights to honor, I do believe I've seen this "It's all OK" type disclaimer from law enforcement before and thought that might be the reason.

If someone made the call to the PD, they should have at least been given a call/file/case number/id . At one point I lived in a place where the cops wouldn't even answer a call unless there was a homicide or serious injury, it's important to document the interaction if for no other reason than the possibility of retribution for being a snitch.

At the moment, the OP can't lock the thread, for he's busy talking to the police. I'll give anything to be a fly on the wall during that conversation.

~Bruno~

In most forums, this would be disregarded. However, this forum brings an element of trust in ones <nick>.  Jon aka Atlas has been around long enough to know this.

So, if it was a troll. Yea. He got us all good but has lost all TRUST in his word.  It does not demean us to believe in him and him let us down; it demeans him.

Ironically this is a lose/lose proposition for him. For people that believed him, it is a win/win.

Obviously a hacked account would answer a lot of questions here. However, as someone pointed out, a simple check on IP's will probably confirm to within a 51% degree of certainty. This is a court of public opinion and as such standards are not so high.

IF the PD did do anything here, get a Bitcoin account and I'll donate 1 BTC towards a PR-24 to keep the crowds suppressed. You know your department needs money. :)

If I'm not wrong, Jon/Atlas uses TOR to visit this forum. (from other pics that he posted last time) How would we identify him in that case?

If somebody hacked into a computer, hasn't a crime been committed? Don't police officers investigate crimes? What am I missing here?

The police can still see if was on his computer at least. Why are we doing the detective work for this case, BTW?

Seriously? Now trying to help someone that may be in trouble is called "detective work?"

Statistically more woman attempt suicide but more men succeed.    

And the ones who suceed also suceed at keeping their mouths shut... wonder why...

I used the wrong word. I was going to type police work, but realized in my mind that I already used the word police and opted for a different word. Wrong choice. Seriously!

No one seems to like paying for public services like law enforcement, consider all the tax whiners one sees around who piss and moan on "principle".

Resource limitations kick in pretty quickly. Hacked PCs have to be way down on the list for a municipal PD and someone has to make a complaint to begin with, like, um, the victim for example. Don't hold your breath waiting for the latter to happen  ;D

I consider it being a citizen. It's not like we were trying to solve a crime, we were trying to save a person. Big difference.

Wait a sec. I think I did mean detective.

http://www.querycat.com/question/87d0595730838b63fb32bd4e01137fae

The hack needs to be looked into on their end to make sure that a hack did occur. The OP's computer needs to be searched to make sure.

Does this make sense?

A suicide post is published.

Police are called in.

The OP claims his account was hacked.

The police say OK, without doing any investigation and leave.

Case close.

If he was hacked, it's not likely to be solved. If he was not hacked, then that is another story. I doubt a PD cares enough to investigate. If the parents are aware of the situation, they probably don't need to do a criminal investigation. Has anyone been damaged?

We were pass the saving-a-life stage, for the OP claimed a hack occur. At this point, a crime is in progress. Either the OP wasted valuable resources with a ruse, or a hack did occur and his computer needed to be checked, letting the officers/detectives know 100% NOW that this is not a ruse. If they go back later to check records, they may no longer be there. That would be a big FAIL.

Technically, another claimed the account was hacked. The OP has not yet responded if he ever will.

Would being distraught be considered been damaged? I have, albeit maybe not as much as the joint, or perhaps others that have been following this thread.

There are some bruised egos around, that's certain.
Nobody likes to be taken for a ride :-)

Yes he has--in the Newbie section.

Get real, please, it's never going to happen. For one thing his account could have been hacked without ever touching his computer.

The last time I acted as an expert witness/investigator in a computer services civil fraud suit was 1987, I was billing $250 an hour for everything from a couple of days of hands-on assessment to the 4 hours I spent on the witness stand to the 4 days I spent waiting to testify in the courthouse hallway, and my bill included time spent briefing the plaintiff's attorney every night after the 4 day trial, except the night after we won the case of course  :)

Forensics ain't cheap and they may not represent the best use of resources, particularly in a situation such as this appears to be.

As much as we love trolling this probably isn't to funny...everything like this should be taken seriously if it turns out to be a hoax it could go the other way also against the OP ..we shall see.

Are you referring to this?:
   


So if he is Atlas, he admits to sharing his account with anarchists and the results are what happens when such is done. So any dealings or deals with his online identity must become circumspect. The newbie section sounds like a good place to be.


If it isn't Atlas then, back to the OP.

As a newbie here and starting work at a new job today for the 1st time, it was my intent & was looking forward to spending a short hour on here, attempting to better my education learning about the BitCoin world.  

Instead I was sucked into an emotional roller coaster by an energy vampire thread, sad.  There is no one really to blame, but myself.  Still time wasted because of nonsense, is time I now no longer have.

You talk about Avatars and Personalities I know nothing about, what I need from all of you that do know, and I suspect the Moderators need help from you as well.  Is create a strong enough community & negative feedback loop on attacks like this, do not kid yourself, that is what this is, that folks like me, whom are here to learn and grow the Community in a positive way, keep coming back.  

There are those few that know very well how to destroy online communities, and drive their members into a two-three or more way war and self destruct, are very clever and time precisely when to strike.  Happens all the time, prove to me and each other this place is better than that.  Learn to spot them and respond correctly.

This Jon & Atlas avatar character, obviously to me now are persona's to avoid, other than that, what am I getting out of this discussion thread?  Not much.  Its up to you.  Enough said, off to read something worthwhile....

GR

Bruno , glad to hear you made it through ( assuming you don't have any more problems) we are all better with you here not without you.

Bbit

The Earth and everyone on it will die eventually. The Sun will expand and destroy all of this. There is no reason to live other than what you make it. I agree about pussy, it ain't worth living or dying for.

oops... >:(

Sorry to hear it. Glad you still hop around. As for the Bolded section, have you ever watched the 'Godfather'.  It happens.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rfjVUT6jfY

so wtf is this all about then  ???  Not going to lie I'm going to be pretty mad if all this is a hoax...

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=77855.msg865890#new

edit: I should add the police should press charges if this turns out to be a false  :-[

Damn it, the IP evidence is inconclusive.

arrrgh  >:(    really ?? any of these username/handles should be purged out of the system this is getting absurd and effecting the community.... don't you think?

What a surprise  ;)

Thanks to those of you who acted responsibly and tried to help the police locate him.

Atlas always uses Tor, so I can't be sure, but I'd guess that his account was not hacked and Emanuel Ortego is indeed an alt.

Yeah, considering the name reported was not Emanuel Ortego, it was Immanuel Ortego.  ;)

Didn't expect this from you or the other couple below stating the same thing. To be clear, I didn't post this for any type of sympathy. I was trying to put the suicide gesture in prospective using my life (and sister's) experience(s) as an example. In my case, it was pills (pretty sure the same with my sister), and right away I call the suicide hotline to make sure I got to hospital and lived, for I wanted to see that pussy again. Damn cunt still left me. Her lost. I'm making it a point to never tell her about Bitcoin. I should of said them, for it was two different women. Point is, we've all done stupid things in our lives. The goal is to learn from them. I sure the hell have. But I digress. This is not about me, but about the OP and/or a possible crime being committed. I may need to get back on that aspect, for I'm not sure what crime, but I'm hoping to find one.

Thanks again, all, for expressing your feelings about that one post of mine, but really, there was no need. Feel free to express thoughts on what I've just posted here over and beyond the suicide aspect, for I may or may not be off-base in regards to the latter part of the above.

~Bruno~

Thank you (or is it you're welcome), theymos. BTW, any chance that the alt, Emanuel Ortego, is Matthew?  ;D

~Bruno~

wow so much drama! ???

Whoa, I spend a day without Internet and I miss all of this. I sure hope Boss is okay.

Actually, if Atlas did in fact kill himself directly due to trolling from provable entities, they could be prosecuted for "cyber bullying", but it's very clear that Atlas is a mentally unstable child on medication who has threatened suicide before almost like seasonal clockwork.

Does no one remember this time last year when I first talked to Atlas he was doing exactly the same thing? Whining about killing himself and then claiming he never did because of a momentary break in his aspergers?

I applaud everyone's interest in saving a life, but this is just another Atlas cry for attention. If you want someone to blame for his constant pissing all over the forums, suicide bluffs and self-importance, you could blame his parents for letting him hang around pseudo-intellectual douche-bags and obsess about forums without receiving proper mental care. That said, I highly doubt Atlas even has a family. He comes across way too much like a foster child or ward of the state, or maybe even someone in the witness protection program (which would explain a lot of things).

Please remember that Atlas prides himself on posting how righteous and special he is. His posts have ranged from "I enjoy having rough sex with prostitutes" to "when woman ejaculate, they do so not out of feeling but out of admiration of me". He is a self-absorbed, mentally unstable, delusional wolf-crier and above all hypocrite. Is it any wonder that he will have bouts of depression? Who wouldn't everytime they live like him and then look in the mirror?

What he needs is to start working to change what he is, and he cannot begin doing that while you sheep are jumping up and down at his every move (I know the mods have a legal responsibility to respond, but they should be responding with force to prosecute him for crying wolf). What this forum needs is to collectively tell the child to go away and seek help. It is very clear that he is obsessed about these forums and that they are the cause of his depression (because he can't control them like he wants). The best thing for him is to go away. Why Theymos isn't pushing this fact harder is beyond me.

Since he is once again confirmed to be Atlas, why isn't he perma-banned (again) yet?

Never gonna happen, it's too much of a goldmine for a counter suit. Atlas/Jon/MicroCheeseDick was seeking any kind of attention he could get.
--

A joke is in order:
Jon was excited about his new rifle and wanted to try it out, so he went bear hunting. He spotted a small black bear and shot it. There was then a tap on his shoulder and he turned round to see a larger black bear. The black bear said "You've got two choices, I either maul you to death or we have sex." Jon decided to bend over.

Even though he felt sore for two weeks, Jon soon recovered and vowed revenge. He headed out on another trip, found the black bear, and shot it. Immediately, there was another tap on his shoulder. This time a big brown bear stood right next to him.

The brown bear said, "That was a huge mistake, Jon. You've got two choices. Either I maul you to death or we'll have rough sex." Again, Jon thought it was better to comply.

Although he survived, it was several months before Jon finally recovered. Outraged, he headed back to the woods, managed to track down the brown bear and shot it. He felt sweet revenge, but then there was a tap on his shoulder. He turned round to find a gigantic grizzly bear standing there.

The grizzly bear said "Admit it, Jon, you don't come here for the hunting, do you?"
--

BTW, Matthew, please help clear my name ;D

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=77855.msg865964#msg865964

I've been asking theymos that very question for some time...

In many cases, yes.

The police response to a reported suicide threat is to do a welfare check.  Depending on their powers in that particular jurisdiction, they may have the authority to transport him for a mental health assessment if they believe he's at risk of immediate harm and they'll maybe talk to his parents if he's still living at home.  They're not going to open an investigation into whether or not the computer was hacked unless Atlas files a formal complaint about the alleged hacking, which he's not going to do if he posted this shit himself, because it's a ridiculous matter on which to squander police resources.  I doubt it's a crime to threaten suicide in Texas, although it may warrant involuntary mental health assessment.

Imaginary Jon #0185 sez:

You see, now, the evidence that society is focused on death, charity, and creating the delusion that they're generous, but have no interest in a man's labor or ideas - or any values for that matter. I can post four thought-out ideas every few hours, and I will perhaps get two pages of responses with no more content than personal attacks. Nobody cares while I'm alive, because nobody's a true existentialist. They all pose to keep up their delusion that their life matters. The facade only comes up once they realize they need to commit an act of charity, else be ostracized for not following the "morals of society," which are always reactive, not proactive, because nobody actually believes in them. If anyone really gave a shit, they'd take me seriously while I was alive, not force me to live longer in a life they continually shit on. Instead of letting me kill myself, there are those who would prefer to rape and otherwise torture me for all eternity.

Did he post this shit on reddit, too, or does he confine his attention-whoring to these forums these days?

So long as everyone is safe and sound, it is great!  Thanks to the mods for the extra troubles.  There is only 1 life, treasure it.  A lot of people hope to live but can't, we should be grateful for what we have.

Called it. This is the second time he's called wolf as a self-important social experiment. Why you people take him seriously is beyond me. Going back to dreaming of an Atlas-free world. (Or at least Atlas-free forum)

Has anyone considered that he is indeed troubled and his forum escapades are cathartic to his condition ?

Many with cerebral challenges need an outlet to help control the condition. A purging of thoughts, emotions, fears, desires ...

Without that release, they might take a turn for the worse. I know it happens. I had a friend from high school who always got depressed and talked his head of about stuff no one really understood, and sometimes talked of suicide when he was wasted. They made fun of him and ostracized him. Him and I had a falling out. Eventually, when no one gave him the time of day, he put a bullet through his brain. I still fight feelings of responsibility about his suicide. Like maybe I could have done more to understand him, and If I had, he might still be with us today.

Maybe his participation here is all about the attention, but is that so bad really? Dont most people seek attention from others? Is that not why we participate here? Isolation is good for no one and maybe he is fighting those feeling of isolation.

When it comes down to it we are all brothers and sisters on thios big rock, and we need each other.

+1

It really is time that the forum management quit enabling Jon's many obvious aliases current and future, it's not good for anyone.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enabling

That's why facebook was created.

Not to take away from your very serious story, but change "suicide" to "rapist pedophile" and I bet we'd see a different opinion from you.

"All he wants to do is touch little boys. Let him touch little boys, it's therapeutic for him."

Or you could block him and force him to find a non-intrusive way to battle. Atlas is not going to kill himself, that has always been a very clear fact to me. He simply thinks too highly of himself to ever do it, like he is somehow meant to lead the world and in the end say "It was nothing" as we all cheer to him in praise (and orgasm in admiration).

Just ignore him, lock this thread, and the next time you see anything by Jon, click "mark as read" and problem is solved (eventually).

I have to say this thread has brought me a great deal of entertainment. One thing I've learned about people who claim they will commit suicide is that they usually don't, it's just a cry for attention. I'm not saying it's true 100% of the time but in most cases it is. It seems as if Atlas, Jon, etc. craves attention and this was another attempt at getting it.

I think it was the ignore button that pushed him over the edge. As his ignore state got darker, so did his attention seeking.

Um, no, it was created as a voluntary method of collecting data useful for marketing and law enforcement. A truly mediocre idea that is so representative of a mediocre time.

Oh look this thread again.
I have no sympathy for you Atlas after I tried to help you the last time.

Ditto.

Lock this shit.

Seconded. Garbage self-important attention-whoring illegal admitted suicide threat thread is garbage.

Am I the only one that read the title as "In a few moments, I'll be logging out from this account and never use it again"?

Yes, I would like the answer to this too..

I smell favoritism .. 

I see what you did here. You put the blame squarely on theymos.

He's the admin, and the only one who can ban.

A tongue-in-cheek post implying and assuming that theymos was the one that implemented the coloring of ignore.

I just noticed peoples ignore button is different than most ...    hahaha

Wonder what colour mine is :D

Why is this ?

I think it's important to mention this:

There are not simply two kinds of suicidal threats (i.e. serious vs call-for-help).  There's a lot of gray area, and a lot of unpredictability.

Take the person I met that drank a cup of bleach.  They will tell you all about it.

If there's one thing I've learned from working in a hospital, it's that every person who threatens suicide is in a world of problems.  You take absolutely every threat seriously because "serious" is not simply limited to the actual act of attempting suicide.

Even if there were two types, if he did really commit suicide then it will be on our consciences.

Ordinarily I would agree with this line of thought, but I am right-to-life and I think suicide is everyone's own choice. Furthermore I believe there are far worse fates than death because I do not believe in an afterlife. If I came to the forums threatening suicide, I'd want everyone to tell me to shut the fuck up and stop whining, not rush to my aid. Rushing to my aid would only depress me that everyone is that pathetic and ignorant. Atlas is just testing the fences, and many suicide fakers are too.

It's not a happy circumstance when someone dies, but I stand by my lack of care for suicide as a statement to this generation that they are all fucking pansies when it comes to the concept of death. Death is the most natural thing in the entire world. Bring it on. I'll kill myself tomorrow just to prove a point. Who cares? Life will end for everyone, so choosing when it ends is an awesome empowerment. I salute suicide. That said, if someone is killing themselves because they're sad about something, then that's no different than getting drunk or doing drugs because they're sad about something-- it's escapism and I don't support it.

So to sum up:

Killing yourself because of a calculated decision based on your worth in the world and your lack of interest in continuing the endless torture that is life: Okay.
Killing yourself because you're an emofag who doesn't want to go to school anymore: Not okay.

Atlas isn't either. He's an attention whore who thinks every brain fart of his is a revolution we should all be awestruck by.

I truly do enjoy your writing style (content and structure), Matthew.

~Bruno~

SAD EDIT: Did I just waste my 5000th post in an Atlas thread? This is way wrong on so many levels.

Good Point. History tells us that after posting your good idea, die. Then you will become famous, make tons of money, and get all the credit.

But true artists don't do it for the above reasons, they are obsessed to create and don't care about any possible consequences to their work.

e.g. Van Gogh


edit: Maybe not the best thread to post my comment in. Sorry.

Sure it is! It's a perfect thread to post that comment, for now Atlas can come out and say, "See! I create value."

~Bruno~

Speak for yourself.

In the case of Jon/Atlas/MicroCheeseDick we are observing the process of Evolution In Action, It's A Good Thing. He should be free and unhampered to fullfill his destiny. One need only read his posts to recognize that he is truly a example of Nietzsche's superman, poised over the abyss by his own superiority, someone that mere mortals are fit neither to judge nor affect.

I had to Google Nietzche.

Statistically, more women think they have bad lives (cry for help), but more men actually do have bad lives (f this.  pop).


:D ;)

Seeing as me, cbeast, the joint and gage all played a key role in finally banning jon and (hopefully) ending an era, I think we all deserve some sort of gratuity.
Please refer to my payment methods on the first page.

XD

Does this fit the typical modus operandi for Jon, to start a thread and not reply?

Maybe what Jon really needs is True Hope (http://www.truehope.com/default.aspx)!

It is pretty normal, yes.
But, this thread is much different from others, as:
We got him banned.
We got the police involved and told his parents.

As I said, hopefully the end of an era.

Pretty sure his parents have been contacted before (and that he's whined here on the forum about that).  He's definitely been banned before.  He'll be back, and he'll pull this shit again just in the future.  But thank you for at least bringing about a temporary respite from it for the forums.

He's banned? If true, I'm going to 75 myself. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=77535.msg864717#msg864717

Looks like Gage's account was hacked too.

lol. But seriously mods, please make this topic go away.

I used the Freedom of Information Act to gain the following transcript of what happened yesterday. Use this if you need help with the codes: http://www.radiolabs.com/police-codes.html

Dispatcher: One-Adam-12, we have an unconfirmed 10-56 in progress.
PO1 & PO2: (in unison) Atlas! (PO1 hits breaks to stop at red light)
PO1: I wonder if he's 10-45B this time.
PO2: If he is, or was, then he's 10-45D.
PO1: (to dispatcher) Can we take a Code 7, first?
Dispatcher: That's a negative. I've got two bitcoiners on hold, County on standby, and the NSA on overtime reading every post on some forum.
PO2: Sounds like a Code N.
Dispatcher: That's a positive. Be advised that an undercover 11-51 may be in the vicinity. 10-20?
PO1: 10-97.
Dispatcher: Roger Dodger!
PO2: I wish she would quit that.
PO1: Heard that, Dodge!
PO2: (to dispatcher) 10-23!
PO1: (before ringing bell, door opens) Hello, Atlas.
Atlas: Dick. Dodger. I was expecting you.
PO2: We got a call from some concerned friends of yours.
Atlas: My account was hacked.
PO1: I see you still have those blue lights in your bedroom.
Atlas: Gives me value.
PO2: So, are you're parents still on vacation?
PO1: We can't ask him that.
PO2: Oops! Are your parents home?
Atlas: No. They're still on vacation.
Dispatcher: 10-19.
PO1: Got to go, Atlas. But we'll be watching you.
Atlas; Whatever!
PO2: (while getting into squad car) Weird kid!
PO1: I met his cousin once, down from Oklahoma. Involved a 10-79.

Bookmarked this thread when it was just two pages. Now it's nine... Anyone care to summarize what happened?

Confirmed troll? Did he an hero? Cyber police?

FTFY :D

Cliffs:

Atlas posts a faux suicide note for attention
Some people laugh, some people take it serious and call police
Police contact Atlas and/or family members and they say he is OK
Atlas claims alias "Jon" was hacked
Atlas successfully avoids emergency services bills
People can now continue to make fun of Atlas' social problems, which I love to see because he is one sick kid
...
Profit!

Pretty much :3
But we have got him banned now! :D

Reposting my post from the other thread.

Well he's permabanned (again).

Most likely he's trolling and I'm tired of it, he's wasted enough of our time. Or what he says is true, and he's passing his account around to his buddies and they're trolling. Still his account, his responsibility, and his consequences.

Awesome, we can play Atlas account hunting again. :D

Let's just ban proxies, Tor, and everyone from Texas just to be safe.

His photo made him look like a high-school child how can you all hate a child so much or are most of you children too?

Excellent idea! Should we start with edd?

What drama. I hope he is ok, but it looks like more BS.
I assume he has made arrangements to cover society's costs. The ambulance, etc. will cost lots and it would be very un-Ayn Rand to expect us taxpayers to pay. If that sound harsh, I agree. But that is what passes for morality among the Ayn Randers.  

If "society" wants to dispose of his body, that's on them.

You haven't been here long enough to know the full horror. We must look like animals. Everyone looks like an animal at first until you experience what they experience and know what they know.

I imagine that if you took the information away from every killing, it would look like murder too. Even self defense seems to be murder if you jump in a bit late.

Haha, touché.

Hai. I'm Atwas. I just wanted to say I am weawy sowwy about what I did. It was a tewwible ting.

Better lock this.  Jon's attention-whoring is getting in the way of Matthew's attention-whoring.

Been watching the topic for a while now.

Most that would do it & is for real, would not leave a letter, would just do it. "What so you can stop me?" Makes no sense.

He keeps spamming reddit with brainfarts. Literally everytime he posts something I can't help but go:

I've always wondered where else he posts, but I guess I should have looked here first: http://atlas.bitkoin.su/post/24145590938/the-bitcoin-communitys-anger-and-paranoia-is-excellent
