Recognizing him is recognizing patterned behavior, it's almost formulaic

At least you're asking genuine questions.

This guy is a waste of human skin. I can't begin to tell you what a POS he is, and how miserable his life must be. He's welcome to have that miserable life, but not to spread his misery around by continually stealing other folks wise comments and leading the board around.

---

I'm reading the 53 page thread now. I remember the Aggiehawg email fiasco and didn't know that was Barnes pretending to be some woman needing assistance.

What happened with the gofundme? Was he trying to steal money?

---

You're confusing two examples of TexAgs mythos. The gofundme and money stealing was Jorts.

And with that mention, I bet this thread gets nuked.

---

Then who the f am I reading about in the Workshop thread? They were saying it was Barnes doing it.

I can't believe I've been a regular poster hear for nearly a decade and don't know this drama.

---

I dunno, maybe Barnes did. Not thst I can remember. Jorts was the former mod who is now in prison and stole money from tons of TexAgs posters. If Barnes did it, it must've been fleeting

Is it confirmed that this Twitter account is Barnes'? How do we know that for sure?

---

That Twitter account has lifted aggiehawgs, drcrinum and others posts and posted them as their own.

He has been outed by Brian Cates(@drawandstrike) on Twitter. If he wasn't suspended by Twitter I would link the thread.

He is not who he says on Twitter, but because he lifts his Twitter posts from different places on the internet, people have flocked to him.

He blocked me for calling him out, so I don't see his posts.

I think there were two, separate incidents involving two discredited posters. One of the guys was very real, known IRL to the boards, but who ended up making bad choices. The other is a fake, identity-thieving, plagiarizing troll.

And yall consider him a troll because he stole a picture from a website and claimed it was his?

Does that negate everything else he has supposedly done?

---

He's a master troll because people are still worked up years later.

The workshop and auto restoration fiasco happened about the same time

BLINDED BY ME, YOU CANT SEE A THING

It was freaking epic

Does barnes go by roscoe davis now ?

---

"A" photo? Hardly.

It was thousands of photos. Stolen life stories. Plagiarized posts, stories, porn video reviews.

He basically has three full time jobs stealing photos and posts on the Internet. He's either the hardest working man online, or a group of 10-20 dedicated trolls.

The second time he got busted here, a bunch interwebs sleuths did some background research on him and uncovered an extensive history of not only trolling, but apparently allegedly engaging in other more legally questionable activities regarding professional credentials and contract work, and a general history of misleading others about himself.

It was quite the controversy at the time, but it also showed all the trolling wasn't necessarily harmless entertainment.

MFBarnes is a mutha fuggin patriot. Lol. And there are people on this site they trust Michael Flynn 100%.

---

Barnes can fool the best of them. This doesn't tell me Flynn is crazy or stupid, just that some shmuck posted something on Twitter he agreed with. He's probably had 50+ handles on Texags in the last 5 years. He may be a well respected rational poster on F16 for all we know. He's a highly experienced and devoted sociopath.

He probably DM's mid-to-high profile political people on Twitter that don't get celeb level follows or DM's and tells them some crazy story about he's a patriotic war vet and asks them to follow him.

There better be a scary ass movie about him someday.

I remember him from Wings N More on University around 2004-05. He would come in and harass the waitress in the bar wearing this. It's man and legend T-shirt. Why is that censored?

---

It's not censored, it's a flaw in your photo

He also claims he discovered and coined Johnny Football.

What was the jorts thing!?!? I missed that!

What the f*** is the backstory with MF Barnes?!

---

He was a poster on here for a long term who became notorious for posting on various forums like Outdoors and Automotive and would frequently post and take credit for material that was not his.

On a fateful day in March 2015, he was outed by a poster who noted that pictures he posted of a car restoration that he claimed he did were taken from a website.

Barnes disappeared from TexAgs almost immediately.

EDIT: Here is that fateful day...

No, an Aggie girl, a member of the rodeo team, I think, her family's house burned down, Barnes started a gofundme in her name, without her knowledge. We don't know if he really meant to give her the money, or only did after being called out.

Supposedly he really did have an Aggie son who was an assistant for the team who actually had pretty good info back then. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Thought it was confirmed.

I'm fascinated by the crazy MF'er. His online exhibit of personality disorder belongs on the big screen. It would terrify people.

Yup. Bott get her money to her thankfully.

Jorts was a former "highly renown" poster on TexAgs. Ag tag. Legit dude. Even was a mod (although this came out later). Also an attorney in texas.

He stole money from tons of TexAggers with fake gofundmes and the like. He eventually went to prison from stealing money (embezzling) from his clients. He was also disbarred.

Still in prison now, as far as I know.

Wasnt he a druggie as well

Sometimes it's hard to know if Texags is the center of the internet, or the end of it.
