On the other thread here rcrocket mentioned that he registered it "in case" the real Justin shows up.

Ah. Well disregard my post as part of my ongoing campaign to reach 500 posts (again) and get a profile from Thames.

Good call on his part. Heaven knows, if someone wishes to register here, a random person hurrying and snapping up the name beforehand makes it so much easier for that person to do so.
"Finally, for your rather strange idea that miracles are somehow linked to the amount of gay sexual gratification that is taking place would require that primitive Christianity was launched by gay sex, would it not?"

"Justin" gave us another obvious hint. His blog describes him as an "Eddie Gein Fellow" at some university. Of course, Ed Gein was an infamous serial killer in the 1950's (Indiana, I believe).
EDITED TO ADD:
The murders took place in Wisconsin, not Indiana. Sorry.

This reminds of Allen Wyatt buying up potential anti-mormon domain names a few years back. In disgust, my in real life brother posted on another message board that he was going to register "AllenWyattSucks.com". Next thing you know, Allen had purchased that domain name as well.
Alter Idem: LDS Knowledge: 3; Trustworthiness: 5 Relatively low poster. Not a lot of knowledge of LDS issues. May be an active Mormon.
Hm...I guess I've been hiding my light under a bushel too much here if Justin thinks I "may" be active LDS and he thinks I've got little knowledge of LDS issues! Justin, read my blog at MADB--read my posts there...I think I deserve better than a 3!
Trustworthiness at a five I won't quibble with. If he's evaluating us by the reactions of other posters on the board, I agree, I'm not considered trustworthy--I think my posts are usually ignored or received with suspicion.
I'm a low poster because I'm not interested in arguing--I mostly read. I've been here long enough to know I'm not going to change anyone's mind. I was surprised I have 500 posts to be included.
But it's all in fun and whoever is responsible; thanks for the diversion.

JustBob once again amended beastie's profile (this is soooo like Bob):
Beastie: LDS Knowledge: 7 Trustworthiness: 5 Toughness: 5 A single mother of perhaps four children, former missionary for the Mormon Church, divorced. In her 30s? Low 30s? Extremely critical of the Mormon faith. Can be pretty tough on some posters. In recent history she has been trying to be more even-handed. Considered a "pundit" on the rival MAD board, a considerable honor in this idiot world. Has detailed lay (not academic) knowledge of some aspects of Mormon doctrine, such as all that Mexican junk (who the hell cares), with little knowledge of large segments of Mormon doctrine. She can be a formidable foe. Atheist. Prolific poster; Board addict. She ranks middle of the road for toughness due to her penchant for insults and occasional shrill behavior; if she'd knock that off she'd get a 10. (Emphasis is original)
So, beastie's knowledge will increase to a whopping 10, if she curbs her "penchant for insults".
"Justin" sounds like someone beastie has deeply offended.
Hmmm, I was thinking it was maybe Will himself at first. But then it may be someone trying to leave Will-like fingerprints. The nicked photo is of someone who would would be of interest to him given his initial studies. The profile and first blog echo Will's in the Book of Abraham thread as well.
If he is Will, he is insulting himself sufficient to deflect suspicion, but not bitingly. And a number of spelling variants, the latest is: Schryvir. I hadn't clocked up 500 posts when I got analysed, I have only had time to go through the Book of Abraham thread where Will has been totally avoiding my Chaldean question. So I may have been annoying enough to join the list.
Then there is the obvious ...trailer park trash which describes most of the board...
On the other hand quite a few entries, like EAllusion's, reflect bob-type comments.
So maybe Bob trying to implicate Will, or Will trying to implicate Bob
