Man, I missed that story. That was the surfer dude on Hawaii, right? What happened here?
It was actually kindof funny, and not very well done. He signed up, submitted some photos, fooled a couple people at first, then started a thread. Fooled a few there at first, then someone pointed out his photos were off the internet. After that we came out of the woodwork pointing out issues with his character. lols
My favorite part was he copied his entire profile paragraph straight from Wikipedia, changing the third person to first person. As a result of doing this, he quoted himself in his own profile (since there was a quote from someone else talking about him in Wikipedia).
