Well, I hope he hasn't got cancer, but to pretend you have it, surely not?

I hope not, because if that is the case.....he must hounded out with extreme prejudice. But I don't think Jim has gone that far into despicable lies.

10 signs for spotting a sociopath

#1) Sociopaths are charming. Sociopaths have high charisma and tend to attract a following just because people want to be around them. They have a "glow" about them that attracts people who typically seek guidance or direction. They often appear to be sexy or have a strong sexual attraction. Not all sexy people are sociopaths, obviously, but watch out for over-the-top sexual appetites and weird fetishes.

#2) Sociopaths are more spontaneous and intense than other people. They tend to do bizarre, sometimes erratic things that most regular people wouldn't do. They are unbound by normal social contracts. Their behavior often seems irrational or extremely risky.

#3) Sociopaths are incapable of feeling shame, guilt or remorse. Their brains simply lack the circuitry to process such emotions. This allows them to betray people, threaten people or harm people without giving it a second thought. They pursue any action that serves their own self interest even if it seriously harms others. This is why you will find many very "successful" sociopaths in high levels of government, in any nation.

#4) Sociopaths invent outrageous lies about their experiences. They wildly exaggerate things to the point of absurdity, but when they describe it to you in a storytelling format, for some reason it sounds believable at the time.

#5) Sociopaths seek to dominate others and "win" at all costs. They hate to lose any argument or fight and will viciously defend their web of lies, even to the point of logical absurdity.

#6) Sociopaths tend to be highly intelligent, but they use their brainpower to deceive others rather than empower them. Their high IQs often makes them dangerous. This is why many of the best-known serial killers who successfully evaded law enforcement were sociopaths.

#7) Sociopaths are incapable of love and are entirely self-serving. They may feign love or compassion in order to get what they want, but they don't actually FEEL love in the way that you or I do.

#8) Sociopaths speak poetically. They are master wordsmiths, able to deliver a running "stream of consciousness" monologue that is both intriguing and hypnotic. They are expert storytellers and even poets.

#9) Sociopaths never apologize. They are never wrong. They never feel guilt. They can never apologize. Even if shown proof that they were wrong, they will refuse to apologize and instead go on the attack.

#10) Sociopaths are delusional and literally believe that what they say becomes truth merely because they say it!

I am really surprised that you guys believed all of this. He sayed that he was trickster and this his show right from the beginning. I must say for a while I believed the cancer story, but I doubt that, too. Al lot of these bits and pieces are pretty obviously created to stir things up - being gay, becoming Jewish, having a son from mother fist and her five daughters...all things which are sure shots to have the more conservative go up the wall.

It's like in a detective play - maybe you have to look for a person called Jim . Or maybe your man is not called Jim. Since it's the person you are looking for, who gives you the hints, it's pretty useless to try to figure anything out. I really think that maybe the RS thing was a group effort, but what do I know. Or care? There is a story between the lines of the the story on the surface, that is for sure. We do not know enough to tell if it is a comedy or a tragedy.

It is a fact that a lot of valuable people were driven away, leaving this places with people like me. I came and stayed here despite of all of that, not because of it. It all got out of hand lately - the "external attacks" (the old game, "Andy", General Butt, the Chensfold fixation...I may be wrong, but this personality may have more facets than we imagine.

TI  is a great place and I respect the person who created it to make it happen. But it is valuable because of the posters, because like you all. So it's good that it seems to get back on track. It's the only place I know to talk ivy. Commenting on IS? Cooooome on.

My friend and I had a similar thing with a neighbour, so I can relate to how you feel Mark, I have also received threats online, and although it doesn't bother me directly you have to think about your family, and any impact on them, sometimes you can't play things safely enough, although people may have ribbed you a bit, myself included you seem like a genuinely nice chap, and I hope you continue to post, and learn about Ivy.

Regarding multiple accounts to avoid any misinterpretation.   I changed my main one from my real name I used rather innocently at joining to a made up one precisely to avoid any problems with people stalking online or causing problems if a prospective employer did a google search on me (as they now do).   I think it retrospect that proved quite sensible.    I only created this account as I couldn't remember the convoluted password I was assigned when working away for an extended period.   These are the only two I've ever had.

Liam, when back at home later in the week I'll check on anyone who was in touch with me and left.

Reality, bullshit. Whats the difference?
