My identity is being stolen! Some prick posting around in my name.
Today I get an email from ChotoCheetah (Saurav) about why he posted something on his blog and why I was wrong in posting that comment of mine (supposedly). He was pretty upset at my remarks. Now I'm surprised cause the last time I visited his blog was like a month ago. So I checked out his blog posts to find this post: Microsoft to spend $20 million on computer literacy
With only 1 comment:
Yep. My name, linked to Apple.com.
1. I don’t use my real name, NEVER in full.
2. I would link to my blog instead of Apple.
3. I would never type leaving so many typos all over.
This is indeed sad that some prick has used my name to post this instead of having the balls to say something himself. And I'm pretty sure it is someone from this forum.

Re: My identity is being stolen! Some prick posting around in my name.
there is nothing much audacious in that comment.
dunno why the poster did it in disguise ?
IMO i would like to see that every one gets 3 meals a day than computer literacy  But that would be a selfless move and seriously doubt if someone will do that

Exactly! I don't know why someone couldn't just post it by himself.

Re: My identity is being stolen! Some prick posting around in my name.
I think I have a faint idea of who that person might be. And I think may be goobi himself does too. He had manage to guess his identity once in the past correctly based on the way he typed.

Yeah I do somewhat have some idea who it might be. But then I don't want to falsely accuse someone...

ofcourse , I am not  .I can post with "praka123" or "prakash" in any replies.
I feels like it is bipolarized now. dragging GNU/Linux into that comment makes it purposefully plotted !writing style sure resembles me !.

Re: My identity is being stolen! Some prick posting around in my name.
Well, this seems to be a case of identity theft, and Master Detective Dheeraj Kumar is on the trail of this innocuous imponderable intelligent impressive impugning illegal identity imposter! 
So lets start with goobimama, do you have any enemies, people who dont like you, someone who might have a grudge on you, anyone? You might want to think about any of your friends, both personal and online, who use linux.

Re: My identity is being stolen! Some prick posting around in my name.
Well, for the people still wasting there times to find if praka123 is lying or not , let me tell you its not praka in anyway, look in the post its spelled "ms" while praka123 always spells "M$" so there you go , praka you are a freeman.
anyway this is really easy, first this guys knows goobi's full name so he must visits his blog , he likes linux but also uses windows at his office or college or whatever ( since he is not using M$) , he kinda likes you ( as a friend or brother but he doesn't use linux i think & he uses offensive language as i have encounter him in the past) since its not very offensive so goobi shouldn't hard time finding him.
BUT there is 10 % chance this guy has the same name as goobi in real life & new to net world so he used his full name but this very rare stuff so go with the above deduction.

Re: My identity is being stolen! Some prick posting around in my name.
Goobi dude, chill. If it's not impeccable english with random 'apples' and 'macs' thrown in between, It's not you. Anyone will figure that out. And I didn't know your full name till now so I dont think many others would.

Re: My identity is being stolen! Some prick posting around in my name.
Oh well its a guess since its pretty rare , but i have seen this happening in a diffrent forum in the past so i thought this could be reason but like i said its pretty rare & goobi should stick with the first thing i posted

Re: My identity is being stolen! Some prick posting around in my name.
There is no way there is another Milind Alvares. It is a hindu name paired with a Christian surname.
Also, I've asked Choto for the IP address and whatever else he can feed me with. Hasn't replied yet.
