I think it's fucked up that a mod would tell you and not tell all of us. But whatever. By the way, I looked at your twitter--- Do you have an etsy shop or something where you sell your illustrations? I like the Prince paper child

It was in real life, not online just in passing comment really.

And thanks so much! I don't right now but I really want to start selling prints. Will have to get something sorted soon

Why? Because he was a mod? Because he was Ben?

Let's not make demands. I've got a theory and if it's correct, I think it's best that we let Prince's aliases stay confidential. Think deeper and maybe you'll figure out why the mods can't tell us.

Share your theory, pls

Yes. Share, please.

Sigh.

In front of the mods? I think not.

Also, if my theory is correct I could be messing up something good. It's best that I don't perpetuate the idea and cause conflict across the site. It'd be bad for everybody.

No.

Just out of interest- why is it confidential? Like the legalities of it? He was posting on an internet message board. I'm not sure how usernames he went by class as confidential but if you'd explain that to me maybe I'll revise my thinking.

I mean, yeah if he was posting at the time in confidence that nobody knew directly that it was him, okay. He deserved that privacy. But I really don't get what the problem would be for people to find out what? 10-15 years later that some posts were by him after all? It's just interesting for the fans to go back and read if they wish. What could have have posted that is so bad to keep a secret?

I'm going to be straight up honest here- I respect the hell out of the mods because to keep this place updated and clean up the amount of shit threads that get posted must be a hell of a job- but this feels power-trippy as fuck to me.

'Only the mods can know who he was!!111! confidentiality!!!11'.

I just say you should just tell people at least (some) of his usernames he had over the years so this topic can finally be closed. The mods are fans, we are fans. We are all equal and the same here, man. Nobody is going to hold anything against him for posts he made anonymously 5,10,15 years ago.

Even I feel like shit because I know first hand from a mod here one of his usernames but I don't want to say anything because he told me in confidence that I wouldn't repeat it. I still feel bad though, because I do personally think the people that come here should know.

In regards to the topic at hand in general, apparently he had various accounts over the years. Kcool is/was not Prince because of a) the IP and b) his Twitter account has been active after April 21st. He just seems to have just disappeared from here for some reason or another.

I sent an org note as well as one directly to his email address. I'd mentioned above that he was here not long after I emailed him, I saw his name lit up. He hasn't answered either one. No biggie though, I don't believe he is Prince, never did...but wanted to check in. Why do you think he'll answer me there? I'm thinking maybe he likes being mysterious

Actually I don't think he would answer anyone on Twitter. Especially from the org. But, he might. I just suggested it for the KCool devotees...convinced that he is Prince.

So I just thought I'd let you know that KCOOLMUZIQ was here at the org last night and read my message (got the read receipt). He did not however respond to it I'm thinking he likes being mysterious It's cool.

Well, now we know for certain he ain't Prince. Kcool is a lurker now--a far cry from the old days...

Trivial Pursuit--- LOL-- I KNEW you would correct my "You're" --- I was typing quickly on my phone and caught the mistake as soon as it went out. Do you ever tire of being a know it all? Ever?

Nah, it comes pretty natural.

Do you mean "it comes pretty naturally"? Or is that some quaint Americanism?
