Thanks for the info pointing me towards this thread, guys. False alarm - it looks like Fisto's troll doesn't fit the patterns I've noticed.

He told me he had websites on how to kite surf. This is quite an amazing coincidence, since having a name like Hunter while also kite surfing is not common.
Kind of like amazing coincidence of Nasa Test Pilot's most furious-defender in the NTP Plagiarism Thread sharing an interest in
sailing Cats.
From a Cruising Lifestyle Forum:
It's particularly curious that, despite Hydro and NTP regularly communicating in threads, once NTP starts dominating the Sailing Thread with Huge Info Dumps back in February, bragging about his regular casual circumnavigation of the globe with Bond Girls on his hip, Hydro never once comments in the thread to share his similar dream of living the cruising lifestyle, his own sailing research, or his shared interest in Catamarans.
It's also odd, given Hydrogonian's constant need to be seen as the Font of All Knowledge, he never chooses to inform the community what a Cat is when members in the Plagiarism thread are saying "What the fuck is a Cat?" thereby creating a forum meme. Instead Hydro points the finger of suspicion at multiple members, then suggests the thread
be locked as soon as possible to stop further discussion.
I'm guessing this is in case Kona recalled an old conversation in 2010 about 'Living On A Boat':

Ive fantasized about this for a while. The only drawback is that I get very seasick. So it may always remain a fantasy, but I'm looking into possible solutions to the sickness. Im also very fair skinned, and Im not sure that its a smart idea from a skin cancer perspective. However, I'll link to my favorite resources and inspiration below.
The only thing that holds me back is the idea of being chained to what is, in a real sense, a large liability and limiting factor in travel. From one perspective, the boat opens up a lifestyle that is otherwise unattainable. It is, for sure, the most pimp way to live off of any coastal region in the world (if you can afford a decent sized boat). In another sense, it limits you to that lifestyle and where that lifestyle can take you.
He then links to the Cruisers forum.

I have the range to hit all of the Hawaiian Islands, and love to head to Maui and rent a slip in Lahaina overnight. In that case, the boat is great for picking up girls. You're bringing your hotel room with you. Just be sure they know the boat isn't leaving the dock with them on it.
Aloha!
Someone else actually living the fantasy life a Gamma would see as his personal property would trigger a deep, burning hatred that would last years. If you think that's a ridiculous idea, you haven't experienced Gamma. This would also explain Hydro's odd and memorable enmity towards Kona in the Dallas Shooting thread.
Nasa Test Pilot joins on Dec 25th, 2015.
Hydrogonian reactivates after almost four years of inactivity on Jan 25th, 2016.
Consider this: large chunks of plagiarism might not only give the appearance of imparting knowledge to the forum for personal rep gain, but it could serve a secondary function - offering the appearance of a person and their sockpuppets having a detailed conversation.
I mean, why not use the unexpected popularity of a deliberate Troll profile to rehabilitate the reputation and boost the popularity of your original profile?
The thing about dysfunctional psychological behaviour is it eventually becomes really, really predictable as the false personas bleed into each other.

This is how I predicted John_Galt would activate after my Aug 13 Smackdown of Hydro in the European Invasion Thread, which he did on Sep 16.
Which is also how I knew he'd also be accusing others of being 'trolls or shills':

Your obviously a troll and should be banned.

If you're a member of RooshVForum, how do you avoid reading threads started by trolls?
That's something we'd all benefit from learning.

This was truly some epic trolling. OP, if you're reading this-----you're a damn funny troll.

Tons of trolls are showing up and getting banned today for some reason. They are lasting just about as long as Eastern Cancer did.
This last one is particularly-worrying, because a Gamma would want to openly-brag about how much smarter he is than the rest of the forum, believing we're all far, far beneath his intelligence:

The trolling efforts are getting more advanced. Next thing you know they'll be self-replicating by hacking the forum software and making numerous "back up" accounts.
He's hinting at the forum's vulnerability. I mean, it's not like you'd have to be a Rocket Scientist to hack a forum... Sorry, it's like my Thought Wandered there.
Galt laid low for a while, but the mask started slipping quickly enough and familiar patterns resurface.

Not thin-skinned. I'm not offended by your insults. I just don't find them productive.
I enjoy the intellectual discourse. I'm not trying to save the world, just enjoying the intellectual stimulation provided by the ideas of others.

You're thin skinned because we didn't insult you, yet you claim we did. Also known as being oversensitive or touchy. No ad hominems have been launched by anyone in this discussion so far.
This is awfully-familiar.

It seems like we're devolving from intellectual discourse into personal insults, so I'm going to hit some other threads after this post.
Sanctimonious quitting of thread, then replies to same thread 17 minutes later, then 13 more times over the next few days.
...Exactly what I'd expect from a Gamma.
Galt's final posts are interesting...

You're making an argument using false principles.
First off, you don't have to live in Hawaii. So let's get that straight.
SNIP
Note the Master of Logic is back again, pedantically-explaining exactly what constitutes an argument. By his final post, he's heading into standard Hydro mode of replying to every single point, line by line.
Not the Hawaii reference - he'd jumped into a thread with - you guessed it -
Kona, and was oddly-combative with him, almost like as if he's carrying
a long-simmering grudge.
I just had to check if Galt posted in any sailing threads. By a hell of a coincidence, he did. Check the Sour Grapes in 'Yacht Lifestyle Game':

How is using a prop the "strongest form of game"?
A yacht is not a lifestyle. It's just an object that floats in water.
At least it looks like Nasa Test Pilot has finally been buried at sea.
If you're really paying close attention, you'll notice how Hydro's voice here isn't quite
our Hydro. That's because Hydrogonian on the forum was always an exaggerated, aggressive Big Baller Troll Alpha Construct of a more mild mannered guy, hence why I referred to him as The Uncontrolled Id, and NTP as the Idealised Ego. Was there a Rational Superego, always preaching moderation and playing devil's advocoate?
This is where things get
really interesting, hence me predicting that John_Galt would show an interest in the Philippines - and, yes, most of his early activity is about it - but I'm going to head off soon for a Christmas break, and have an album to record, so it can wait. Since the profile in question has been oddly-silent, maybe it's just not important any more.
Anyway, check the forum software for vulnerabilities, Roosh. If I can accurately-predict behaviour based upon my psychological profiling, then it's far beyond mere coincidence. This guy is a deliberate, serial pest, who seems to both need the approval of the forum whilst also trying to disrupt it.
