    For additional reader context: Some months ago a woman attempted a rambling smear campaign on Lemmy against this roy guy, linking to various self written pieces accusing him of various disreputable things.

    The whole deal was so odd and bizarre that I sort of memorized the name. Supposedly the guy had a child with the woman and then either left her and/or didn’t pay alimony or something like that. Something with a pregnancy.

    As I asked you earlier when you first posted (and deleted) this, are you that woman? I get the distinct impression that you are. The blog post format and slightly unhinged writing definitely point towards it.

    At this point I am just very intrigued by this whole ordeal. Is this an attempt at defamation? Is this roy really so disreputable? More at 8 I hope

      I really have no idea who you are or what you are talking about. I would like to know more, do you have a link?

      I also did not delete my post in technology, some bot removed it because it wasn’t “technology related” so I put it here.

        Sadly no link, the posts were deleted from most places she posted them to, due to the rambling nature of the contents and them being spam posted to numerous unrelated communities (like your new one).

        It was a collection of self written blog posts, all in a similar, aggravated tone and each alluding to yet another facet of debauchery to this man who knocks up women and then bails.

          I wish I had been able to read that stuff when I was doing research for my article. The fact he knocked up a woman and left is just deplorable.

          Most of my content was from their irc logs. Having a third party source for gossip would have been nice.
