If you want to keep your anonymity and continue B.S.ing people with this "Simon Fuchs" nonsense, that's your choice, of course. But you're going to continue to be regarded as being on basically the same level as Joseph, Droopy, etc.
Obviously, I don't have a way to prove it to you.
Sure you do. In this day and age it's more or less impossible to avoid the interconnectedness of life. So if you're actually telling the truth here, you should be able to put up a series of links that situate within contemporary life. These disembodied photos, these patently fake Facebook pages---this doesn't cut it.
It's possible to connect Simon Fuchs with my alma matter(s), but probably not my current client, as I am self employed (though, I have been working with my current client for years).
Well, then, put up a link that shows that Simon Fuchs attended such-and-such college/university.
I don't buy the claim that "nothing will prove it," because that's just not so. I mean, do a scan of your Masters in Phil. and create a .pdf and post it, if you want to make a legitimate goodwill gesture. Provide links showing that you're an actual, flesh-and-blood person who exists in the real world and who does and lives as he says he does. Post a pic of you playing w/ your puppy. For heaven's sake, Simon, you're making this way more difficult than it ought to be. You must be the only person in the 1st world--outside of deep-cover intelligence operatives and law enforcement types--who's incapable of providing evidence that you exist in the world.
Okay, what do you suggest, then?
I can't prove to you who I am. You'll have to assume I am telling the truth if you care.
I've given you several suggestions already. Anything short of that needs to be treated with utmost skepticism, in my opinion.
