Epilogue and apologies

[pokerjo22]

I thought I’d wait until all the hoo-hah had died down before making a post that will bring closure to those of you for whom this has been a traumatic experience (basically Jake).

About a year ago my 3/6 game was going to [censored], and I wanted some quick advice. I’d had limited success with an old account because you mainly get advice from fellow newbies when you’re a newbie, which isn’t all that helpful. So I simply made a new account and stuck a pic of a cute girl next to it, and got the advice I was after. I certainly never expected to be still posting under the same account a year later. I didn’t even think it would work, or that it would last at most a week or a month.

I now feel guilty that I short-circuited the usual way of building up a reputation that enables you to get good advice, but I hope I’ve answered enough newbie questions over the last year to make amends somewhat, and that there has been a certain entertainment value to the whole thing. I did try and establish a second genuine account, but I just didn’t have the time to juggle both accounts.

There are plenty of other people I owe an apology to, obviously PJN and sublime, and I apologize now. But honestly people should get off their case. If the roles had been reversed I’d have done exactly the same. Maybe 99.99% of the time you’ve been suckered, but you only have to be right once to make it worthwhile. Furthermore, it was always in public and it was always good-humored. There were plenty of posters who chased pokerjo in PMs and emails etc., some of them far more persistent than PJN and sublime, some of whom are now giving PJN and sublime grief.

Other times it was tough to know where to draw the line in establishing the character of pokerjo, and I may have overstepped it on a number of occassions. I got blindsided once or twice when people revealed stuff to me they wouldn’t have done if they knew I was a guy. In those situations I offered the best advice I was able, but please accept my apologies.

My biggest apologies go to the real women on these boards. If anything, the last year has taught me how tough you have it (although clearly you have the advantage of getting better poker advice than the guys!). I was probably hypersensitive to it, having never experienced it as a guy, but there were a number of times when people were condescending or patronizing or otherwise dismissive of an argument I made, which I knew would never have happened if I’d posted as a guy. Admittedly that only applies to a handful of posts, but nevertheless it was an eye-opener.

I probably should also apologize to zoeymodel, but despite repeated requests to apologize to her in person that has simply resulted in a restraining order.

Also, I should point out there are now multiple pokerjos all over the place. I don’t play online under pokerjo (my handles are only vaguely related) and I don’t post on other message boards. Despite that I notice pokerjos cropping up everywhere now. So I guess impersonators impersonating someone impersonating pokerjo, or something like that.

I’m not sure what to do with the account now. My original intention was to let it die as soon as it was exposed, but after a year I’m kind of attached to it. So I think I’ll just stick it out.

Anyway, flame on.

BRILLIANT!

[VBM]

fwiw, i think it's fascinating, bruised feelings aside; so i had a few questions:

1. how hard was it to get into a woman-mindset? did it get easier?

2. how did it alter your perception of like, communication from men to women? anything applicable to your own dealings w/ women? it sounds like you sympathize much more now w/ some of the flack gals get...

3. did girls ever like, seek you out to "girl-talk" in this sausagefest forum? i know there was a pokerjo vs. jennicide hotness thing for a while...

4. did you ever feel like sometimes your post replies were overly "softball" replies? I noticed that many times, a post from you in the mid-high forum got exceedingly polite and usually nodding replies. and, if the reply was corrective, it was usually prefaced w/ a compliment or a qualification

thx...

Oh thank God, Jake can come in off the ledge now.

It's all good in my book. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

[BottlesOf]

The reason I was a little suspicious (although I pretty much bought it) was that the girl you had of the girl smiling on the futon didn't really look like the girl at her computer wearing glasses.

Ironic, as I am a way hot bikini wax model, posing as a balding drunk on 2+2, in order be respected for my mind alone.

That is a very odd photo to have access to.

[Jack of Arcades]

It honestly doesn't matter to *me.* I don't feel decieved. I don't care if you're male or female, it's only a small part of who you are - and who you are, whoever you are, is an intelligent and humorous person that has contributed much to these boards both in terms of poker and OOT.

I hope that you continue posting, whether or not you make it known it's you.

Nice job. Thanks for the mammaries (http://www.zoeymodel.com/hosted/spiderwebs/full/spiderwebs30.jpg).

[bernie]

I must be missing something. Why are you apologizing? Because you faked and posted under a chick name? So what?

Nice bluff.

FWIW, I thought this was all pretty damn funny, and I don't think you owe anyone an apology.

[kyro]

*starts slow applause*

It was a fun ride wasn't it?

[spamuell]

Fortunately for me I pretty much decided not to hit on you over the internet and I just thought you were an intelligent and witty poster, and as that hasn't changed (and really this whole thing is hilarious), I'm glad you've decided to continue posting.

[fnord_too]

Definitely stick around as pokerjo. I also wouldn't say anything outside of OOT (if people in other forums don't read it here, oh well).

[wacki]

Just curious, when we got into the argument about womens breasts being equal to mans breast and a double standard was repressing female boobs, was that an act to uphold your image as a woman? Or were you being serious?

Also, was your comment about our super accurate GPS guided bombs killing children in Iraq a sincere one?

Regardless, the pokerjo22 account was a nice play on your part.

[sublime]

There are plenty of other people I owe an apology to, obviously PJN and sublime,

ummm, i dont care, but thanks

i tell almost every woman i meet that i want to have sex with them.

nice hand

[Dead]

Hahaha sublime you hit on a guy. I will always, always laugh at you for that, because you pride yourself on being such a typical Bostonite. Pwned. Pwned. Pwned. Pwned Pwned.

No one forced IT to come into OOT and post things from a chicks perspecitve or argue from a girls opinion. Pokerjo would give "advice" as a "young woman." Had it just been for poker advice, IT could have stayed in SS and MHL and gotten stuff done.

This is not cool, it is [censored] weird and creepy.

I think that this is uproariously funny because guys like sublime were falling all over themselves to flirt with some online chick, while sublime was talking about what a pimp he was.

No I was being serious. But if I remember correctly you're misrepresenting the argument. I never argued mens breasts = womens breasts. I argued that the fact women have to cover their breasts more than men do is simply a societal convention. Which strikes me as self-evident when you look at other cultures.

[gorie]

at first when i started posting here, i always thought pokerjo was a guy (i only saw the tongue avatar). then i started to think they were gay. i didn't realize they were "suppose to be a girl" until later. i figured that some of the guys "stalking" might be gay or it was some joke.
it wasn't until the female avatar came up and all the "chick threads" i realized it was a girl, well and someone told me the deal about her being the preferred girl. i thought that was cooler than my first assumption. then i started liking pokerjo because she seemed like a smart girl.

now i kinda just wanna hump it.

I didn't think I really did this, I usually posted simply from my own perspective. When I did it was usually to counter the rampant mysoginism that occassionally threatens to overwhelm this forum, and which sometimes gets a little tiresome. Sorry if that creeps you out. You can put me on ignore now.

[/ QUOTE ]

I find this post way weirder/creepier than anything pokerjo has done. It really irks me when anyone refers to another person as "it". So pokerjo was masquerading as a woman, this doesn't mean that he has suddenly been castrated (and even if he had been, "it" would be inappropriate).

And pokerjo's advice from the perspective of a female could easily be how some or many females feel but it doesn't matter, he never said that he was speaking for everyone with two X chromosomes and if anyone decided that jo's opinions were universally shared by womankind, and therefore used them as a basis for attempting to understand the females in their life, they're an idiot.

Let me make sure I have this right: A single post criticising a guy pretending to be a girl on the internet (and referring to him as an "it") is more weird than a man posting 900 times as a woman and allowing guys to flirt with him, etc ???

You have some [censored] up priorities.

i had one PM conversation with pokerjo and it was about a hand and lasted one exchange. since it was poker related i didnt flirt or anything once. whenever i made my usualy charming comments to her/him on the forums s/he would just ignore them, which surprised me beacuse:

a) im a stud
b) im charming

i dont see what the fuss is about, its an internet forum.

Whatever, I have no idea about PMs but I don't think anything that I saw pokerjo do in public was [censored] up so I don't care whether he did it once or 900 times.

I don't like calling people "it", even once.

This all makes me think back to a few monts ago. We were wondering on IRC how many extra views a user's posts would get if people thought they were from hot or even semi-hot chicks. Good thing I didn't do an experiment... it was already done, and done well.

Why do I want you to know, that I know what you know?
Why can't I just know what we know and not need you to know I know?
Btw I know you knew I knew before I said I knew but I still had to say I knew and I hate myself for this.
Some of these other people know what we know very few don't need to tell you they know however so there are that many that don't know what we know and are just thinking they know as that is what you want them to know?
nice
They all will know I knew if you ever tell them what we know but if you never do I will look like I never knew this alone might be worth keeping what you know from those that think they know forever.

which was in response to daryns question about:

And when daryn said:
right but it's clearly different, no? women's and men's breasts i mean.

He got no response.

It's no secret that in the past I've never liked your arguments.

On the other hand, this post, which you have shown extreme emotional restraint and well thought out arguments, stands in stark contrast to many of the pseudo-flame wars we have gotten into in the past. Despite weirding me out a litte, this post/situation has impressed the hell out of me.

No, I almost always respect his ideas. The man is a veritable genius and has the scores to prove it.

Do people really put this much value in an internet message board?????? I really would like to know.

no apology neccesary. as i mentioned in my pm, you pulled off the pwning of a century, essentially fleecing the entire board, but most especially me. I cant really be angry, in fact, im really very amused by the whole situation. i expect to get the "pwned" jokes for quite sometime, but that doesnt really bother me. the "pjned" is really one of the better things ever. However, i am disappointed that you didnt just show up in vegas wearing a shirt that says " I am pokerjo"

However, if in your infinite remorse you want to make it up to me by staking me, im more than willing to accept such.

peace

Eh, whatever. Keep posting hands.

Daryn didn't get a reply because he was taking the piss out of both of us.

As for the Iraq thread it pretty much sums up my thoughts. I think the risk of terrorism is exaggerated and I don't see how it justifies the loss of life, on both sides.

The argument that we made the Iraqis lives better by getting rid of Hussein applies to any dictatorship, but I don't see us rushing into war with somewhere like Myanmar (it would be better if we did - at least then it would confirm we weren't acting in our own self-interest).

Its not like I'm some pinko commie - this is the only war I've ever opposed, and it all stems from it being pre-emptive. I just don't believe its morally justified to attack a country because you think they might be thinking of attacking you. If that's the case, the Japanese were justified in bombing Pearl Harbor.

Anyway, politics. Wrong forum. Mods notified.

did you make up all the stuff about moving to CA and everything? the only thing I thought was weird was you buying a half million dollar house.

[pokerjo22]

Awesome location. If you make it to the West Coast, the drinks are on me.

[pokerjo22]

Naw, that was true. Half a million buys you a shack round here, and not a very big one at that.

[turnipmonster]

for some reason, I think it would have been truly weird if you had made up that part, and were actually british or something. not that it isn't weird as it is /images/graemlins/smile.gif.
