Yeah. That guy has MANY different Usernames and just stirrs-up trouble everywhere he goes. But you know what?All his negative posts about THIS site...just add up to Free Advertising! (That was pointed out by someone over there already.) I have grown weary of it all. SATAN (My Username over there), is considering no longer posting there anymore. People over there get BANNED for NO REASON...and then when there IS a reason to Ban someone (Vandalising the Board)...Yuri remains silent. I still have my suspitions as to who it REALLY is causing all this trouble. Hopefully i am wrong.

Can I ride shotgun? I am 100% positive it's not Yuri, different ISP for starters and anyway, Yuri is not a malicious, immature attention seeking malcontent. The troll's recent post on the Celtic Frost board really did sum up his character "I have no friends." Obviously he is just a sad case with Narcissistic Personality Disorder who should be ignored because what he really needs is to seek some professional help and engaging in discussion with him just feeds his need for attention... "The DSM-IV Diagnostic Criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder are: A. A pervasive pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration, lack of empathy, as indicated by at least five of: 1. a grandiose sense of self-importance 2. is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love 3. believes that he or she is "special" and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions) 4. requires excessive admiration 5. has a sense of entitlement, ie unreasonable expectations of especially favourable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations 6. is interpersonally exploitative, ie takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends 7. lacks empathy and is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others 8. is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her 9. shows arrogant, haughty behaviours or attitudes Human beings are social creatures and need social interaction, feedback, and validation of their worth. The emotionally mature person doesn't need to go hunting for these; they gain it naturally from their daily life, especially from their work and from stable relationships. Daniel Goleman calls emotional maturity emotional intelligence, or EQ; he believes, and I agree, that EQ is a much better indicator of a person's character and value than intelligence quotient, or IQ. The emotionally immature person, however, has low levels of self-esteem and self-confidence and consequently feels insecure; to counter these feelings of insecurity they will spend a large proportion of their lives creating situations in which they become the centre of attention. It may be that the need for attention is inversely proportional to emotional maturity, therefore anyone indulging in attention-seeking behaviours is telling you how emotionally immature they are. Attention-seeking behaviour is surprisingly common. Being the centre of attention alleviates feelings of insecurity and inadequacy but the relief is temporary as the underlying problem remains unaddressed: low self-confidence and low self-esteem, and consequent low levels of self-worth and self-love. Insecure and emotionally immature people often exhibit bullying behaviours, especially manipulation and deception. These are necessary in order to obtain attention which would not otherwise be forthcoming. Bullies and harassers have the emotional age of a young child and will exhibit temper tantrums, deceit, lying and manipulation to avoid exposure of their true nature and to evade accountability and sanction." -Tim Field
