Yeah he's an odd duck for sure. Far from the worst at either forum, tho. Welcome to Okiehoma!Speaking of Lurker I have some things I'd like to say. When I became owner of this site I started getting emails from Lurker or whatever he calls himself, initially somewhat friendly but eventually becoming veiled threats with demands, I'll show you many of them.
The first ones had accusations against dennishoddy with some pretty frightening levels of effort put into it. He included a list of accusations and 10 screenshots of random things dennishoddy had said and mentioned having over 250 screenshots. I forwarded the entire thing to dennishoddy and he answered every question with answers that were better than anything I could have made up, which makes me believe him. I then tried to convince dennis to let me publish all the answers but he said he wasn't interested in getting the whole thing going again and I completely understood, especially now that I've seen the efforts Lurker will go too.
I basically told lurker that I would look into it and get back to him when I made a decision on it, and that can take a while with me sometimes. If he doesn't get an answer he continues to send more emails, each a little more shady and threatening than the last, and then follows me around the internet to send me a message anywhere he can find me, and I'm pretty much tired of it.
To any one that supports lurker and his efforts to ruin dennishoddy's and anyone else's life, you can leave, don't let the door hit you on the way out, go have whatever site you think you want to have with that guy and have fun. We don't play that anymore here. No one should have to deal with that level of harassment over a site that is basically here for entertainment. People generally come here for at least a small level of enjoyment.
Whether you like it or not, this guy is the definition of an extortionist and I'm tired of it and anyone supporting him should re-examine their positions.
I didn't include the first email with the list and attachments due to privacy concerns for dennishoddy. I replied a few times in the beginning to say I'd look into it and he kept sending messages before I ever had a chance to. Eventually I stopped replying so he started sending them from different sources. I have never been rude to this man and have never replied in a negative way. All of these emails were unsolicited and most were not replied to. There are more, these are just the ones I could find the easiest. He's sent message in many different forms to many different places so it's hard to find them all, most of these have shown up in the last few days.
Early email after he sent his initial concerns and I said I would look into it after I was done with the technical aspects of taking on the site.

He likes to use my name, I guess to let me know that he knows it.

Apparently he found a different email address for me somewhere so he sent one to it.

Not sure what these threats actually were that he is referencing, no one else has mentioned being "threatened."
