This new poster has been on since March 22 2022 and has 200 new posts already. That's prolific! The posts generally take the form of "information" and Alarmist type stuff, and frankly I don't have time to read all the long-form. Is DooDahMan a copy-paste bot?

Yeah, I could Ignore, but I want to see where this is going, especially as we get closer to the election. I think we have an influencer running about?

If not a bot someone who is professional involved in the real estate industry and most likely someone that posted under a different name in the past.

A troll with an agenda. Life is much better with it on ignore.

The articles he spams us with are rife with logic holes. And when you call him out on it, he just bullshits some reply back that exposes how he didn't really read his stiff or lacks the capacity to comprehend it.

He ctrl c ctrl v's articles with almost no input. If he would have a short summary or analysis, posts would potentially be interesting; in current form, most of them are boring and I can't get myself to read any of it.

Style is similar to two earlier posters. One was of fairly liberal persuasions and also used to post large blocks of text. The other one used to post real estate and economy news. I believe the latter one was not purged.

Yeah, it was the frequency of posts that got me looking. Could this be the dreaded "paid (foreign??) actor" infiltrating Pat.net?? Ooohhh, maybe a Government player?? Meh, maybe just an election influencer, or Whatever.

I'll monitor the activity, and if BS continues, I'll just Ignore. What a great option -- Thanks to Patrick!!!!

Personally, I enjoy staying in my Confirmation Bias Bubble. Sometimes, I'll risk lifting the manhole cover I'm living under to check radiation levels.

He, she, it is a damned Russkie, Chinese, Kommie, Leftist, Ultra Right, White Supremacist, Sexist, Racist, pronoun and dead name disrespecting, propaganda slinging, kale salesperson and domestic terrorist.

I've ignored all the DooDah day. It's all propaganda trying to pretend the Democrats will go after Oligarchs.

my commitment to the PatNet poster/commenter who died in March

Who died?
8   Hircus   2022 May 20, 1:32pm  

I don't think he's Logan.

I recall Logan had somewhat poor writing skills, as his grammar was frequently off, and some sentences were hard to understand due to missing a word etc... But his articles / blog posts etc... were fine, and looked like he had someone edit them before posting. When he spoke on TV he sounded fluent, so I think it was just his writing. I remember this because the difference in writing on his blog vs on patnet stuck out to me. I suppose it could really be him and he just improved his writing skills in the past few years, and/or now spends more effort writing and editing before posting, but meh... I don't think it's him.
9   NuttBoxer   2022 May 20, 1:42pm  

I still think Logan, but this version of him actually posts things worth reading, and is more well rounded. Logan was always an obvious ignore, that's why he has the record. Logan 2.0 is really no better or worse than most of the rabble on this site.

very rare moment of naïveté expected he would encounter meaningful and intellectual discourse here.

I'm so far ahead of him (RIP). It only took me two seconds to figure that out instead of a full moment.

Agree. I liked Logan. I can't remember other usernames but DooDah 100% is a previous user. Lurk all you want, but if you use the same email address, you shouldn't be allowed to change username. I've mentioned it to Patrick. Frankly it's my biggest beef with the site, but just being honest.

This includes people that I agree with 9 out of 10 times. No point in changing your name. I'm sure patrick has logs on this, I've been Wookie since my first log in. My opinion, but I think it should be a one and done thing. There's no reason to change a username. Outside of Hollywood, it's total bull shit in my world. Own your fucking comments and don't run from them. Someone can go through mine and probably make me look like a shit head. Fine. Moods, temperament, attitudes, etc. change. Get fucked if you don't like a past comment of mine. I may not like it either. Put that in your brain.

Ah, after a awhile I get bored. I was about to change it to UltraDarkMAGA
16   FortwayeAsFuckJoeBiden   2022 May 21, 11:57am  

his personality hasn’t changed even from before. i think i know who he is, but it doesn’t matter. we are all here just trying to get through life, inflation, and economic ills and struggles that come our way. even in disagreement we are still just people.

We're all fucking weirdos, let's call a spade a spade. I've just never got the name change thing. I'm a weirdo in that way that a username on a website pisses me off, but I'll still interact with you guys. Stop changing your fucking usernames or I'll do nothing.... lol.

I think I'll change my name to Ceffer and my pic to a guy watching a whale jump out of the water.

21   BayArea   2022 May 22, 4:35am  

Are you able to change your username on Patnet without hand to re-register?

That would allow you to become more anonymous on an already anonymous discussion forum site?

A previous poster/commenter who was also a Trial Attorney and Professor at U.C. San Diego amongst other things who in a very rare moment of naïveté expected he would encounter meaningful and intellectual discourse here.

That is all I care to share on this.

The duck is dead?

Do you mean Dan251 or what ever his name was, with the Red car in his avatar?
Marcus? Or Vincent?

Marcus must be in Eithiopia by now.

So did I read it correctly that big pile of doodoo is here to pay homage to some previous poster on Patnet by trolling the site but not talking about the previous poster? Ok.

So unless he plans is to tell the truth about what motivates this spam, can we just skip to the part where he leaves and we all forget about him?

He never said anything. He just wrote nonsense. I don't know different tastes for different people. He just seemed disruptive to me.

That's the whiff I'm getting of the odorous explanation.

"Do me a favor will ya? Go to Patnet until the end of May and give them all hell over there. They are all good kids they just need a little trolling, that's all!"(Ack! Grabs Chest and kicks the bucket)
32   Ceffer   2022 May 23, 8:06am  

"I got vaccinated and triple boosted in spite of all that Patnet told me! Damn them, Damn them all, I'm dying now! Go over there and punish them, it's my dying wish! Make them SUFFER!"
33   GreaterNYCDude   2022 May 23, 7:17pm  

AF had insightsand good nuggests at first, wrapped in language ment to grab your attention. Over time the sthick wore thin, at least for me. By the end he (?) came across a bit annoying. I understand why Patrick banned him.

@Patrick can confirm if he'd like, but I've been around here far longer than my username suggests. Years ago when this was mostly a bay area centric housing site I posted under a different handle.

I've seen several people come and go...and some come back again. Iwog, EllieMae, BearMarket (wonder if he ever found his personal paradise in Oil City, PA)... the list goes on. Some had good discussion points, others just beat the same drum, some times incessantly.

As far as DooDahMan it seems he (?) posts frequently, mostly articles from elsewhere. Some I find interesting others I don't. This site has certainly expanded beyond economics and housing over the decades. Discussion tilts right as a general rule more than it used to, but I still find the content engaging enough to make this an (almost) daily read... particularly the humor threads.

I'll say this, I'm sorry for @DooDahMans loss. Genuinely. As much as I appreciate your sharing a bit about your friends accomplishments, being a mostly anonymous forum, user handles is how we come to know each other... so sadly I can't place whom this person was as it pertained to this random coner of the internet. Perhaps that's how the world have wanted it. Ce la vie.

Now that's excessive
36   Tenpoundbass   2022 May 23, 8:50pm  

I can't help but feel that if Jack is a real person, he only posts here because we're the only ones that will give genuine feedback. Rather than a bunch of thumbs ups from blue checks that didn't read it. If real, he's a writer that posts here and bounces passages before he commits them to his writing project.

I'm going to disagree. The left moved the goalpost and it makes a site like this seem more right leaning. I actually think most users here are pretty center/independent/libertarian.

There are quite a few users that go a bit too far right for my liking, but generally their takes are uplifting to some extent. It's not defund the police and sit back and watch inner city blacks kills each other as a logical solution. It's not burn shit down. No one here is overtly racists as far as I can tell and I have a black kid. Jokes are made, but generally in jest.

Just my take. This site reeks of Libertarianism. Which in my opinion is the most logical path to a better society. And yes, it can get a bit echo chamber(y) with ideas, but that's likely the reason we all keep coming back. But they're not right wing and generally not negative.

Other thing is I come here to converse, discuss, debate, etc. Linking article after article isn't engaging. I know how to read the news and research topics. Forcing your copy and paste links down other peoples throats is frankly annoying. But, as I've said before if I accidentally came across DooDah at an airport, I'd probably have a beer. It's kind of like Crowder, we have more common ground each other than people realize.
