Oh, oh, oh, I'm making a Ludicrous Claim®! Read the first post!

[TenEightyOne]

I'm in agreement with others that it's difficult to know what is and what isn't true. If D, E and F have been proven to be lies, why should we believe that A, B and C were true? You've started to concede that some of your given facts aren't true. The sooner you come clean and iron out all the details, the sooner we can all put it aside and move on, which we all want to do.

I'd second that. @KudosM4, if there were still some untruths then you would feel that you hadn't resolved the situation, I guess. Just post "it was all made up, I apologise" or something similar... then normal GTP service is resumed. Worse things happen at sea, as my Gran used to say. Although she was a torpedo engineer*.


*Untrue, but a great joke.

@KudosM4 Some of your supposed instagram photos are those of Taylor Attrell, a second year professional at Port Vale FC. Port Vale play in Burslem, a suburb of Stoke, Staffordshire. Your location indicates Ilford, Greater London. That is a distance of 176 miles / 283 kilometres; a tall commute for a 19 year old footballer. And speaking of age, your PSN ID would indicate that you are 24 years old but that is merely a supposition.

Without knowing your IP address and any changes it may have, can you explain this discrepency? Are you Taylor Attrell?

"Detective Liquid"

"Detective Liquid"

That ID was reverse-discovered from "his" instagram photos a good few days/pages ago Not doing @Liquid down, of course!

 

[Famine]

I'm prepared to give @KudosM4 the benefit of the doubt now, it takes a lot to make the admission that he has. That's particularly true given who we now know him to be and the arena in which he performs.

Both of his identities have been supported only with photos from Instagram. There's no more reason to suppose he's actually teenage footballist Taylor Attrell as there was to suppose he's 30-something chartered accountant Faz Choudhury.

He has admitted he is not Faz. Only way of convincing me he is Taylor Attrell is a picture of a can of beans on 'his' Corsa.

 

[Famine]

He has admitted he is not Faz.

I know. The point was that this identity was constructed entirely from Instagram images and forum posts. The only 'evidence' of him being Taylor Attrell is also Instagram images - thus the two identities are broadly equivalent in plausibility... None.

 

[RocZX]

then what if someone from my neighbourhood knew me on GTP, then word would get spread around my neighbourhood

But you posted a pic of "yourself" ( the reason we found your "real" name ) doesn't that defeat that purpose.

Exactly. So many missing links to every story you tell us.

As someone who's been through something like this before because I was trying to cover up or at least change a part of my life, I can tell you right now @KudosM4 it's way easier to just own up to everything. It sucks and it makes you look like an enormous douche, but you looks less like an asshat if you own up to what you did and provide proof that your stories are legit. I can understand why someone would want to create a pseudo life online, but in the end it's just not worth it when you get caught and you will get caught.

Best thing to do now is just lay it all out there, take a picture of your car with beans or a sign on it, take a picture of yourself holding a can of beans, and accept the fact that people will question everything you say from that point forward. And when you are questioned, also understand why they are questioning it and do what you can to prove that you're being truthful. I had a problem with this originally, but it doesn't make your situation any easier.

Just some sage words of advice from someone who's been there and learned a hard lesson.

A sign? What kind of thing is this?

Beans or nothing, I say.

 

[TheCracker]

A sign? What kind of thing is this?

"Hi GTPlanet. This is my_______ Signed_______" used to be the default request for such situations.

What is "limited" about it?

 

[Holdenhsvgtsr]

If he's creating Facebook profiles and instagrams saying he's this Taylor guy that's pretty much identity theft and could create problems for not only him but also the real Taylor.

 

[TenEightyOne]

What is "limited" about it?

Things like the SXi White were limited editions, as I recall. It's just a spec pack (paint, stereo, alloys) out of a finite parts bin usually.

 

[Smurfybug]

Dang that's some stuff I had to read. Good thing I had an Ice Lolli!

I really hope this is a deep philosophical question.

I just found this thread on the M3cutters forums.

I knew that, but I was just having a bit of a joke with the bean thing, I guess sarcasm really doesn't work well in text.

You need to blur better

or I'm just too... observant of people's avatars.

You know who it is anyways.

I am absolutely confused now with this situation. I thought there was a resolution, but now comes hundreds of stuff...

I'm thinking the "resolution" was more of a deflection from having to tell the truth.

I'm now beginning to get at that point too. @KudosM4 c'mon man.

Can't see the image and the site seems fishy with pop-ups for apps and even more fishy dating ads at the bottom of the page.

What is "limited" about it?

Its appeal?

It's likely lifespan in the hands of a 17 year old male?
