The problem is that he does not perform his own research. Instead, he plagiarizes multiple forums and posts that information as his own on Twitter, etc.

There have been multiple, blatant examples of plagiarizing Aggiehawg or TexAgs threads in general.

The informative "stuff" he posts is actually fairly accurate and researched fairly well as far as I can tell

Ok

Boy, there are some posters here showing why his scams have been successful over the years.

I just don't understand.

Most posters here want to protect their personal life since this is a public forum. I respect that 100%, but there is a big difference when you intentionally try to deceive others.

I don't believe he's a dummy, actually he's probably pretty intelligent, but his moral compass is off about 180 degrees.

If he would just stop with the games and just contribute, I'd think many folks might forgive, although nobody should ever forget.

---

all the info he posts is just stolen from somewhere else. it is not original thought. the dude assumed the identity of a law enforcement officer and is begging for go fund me donations. you think he is coming up with credible information?

---

There are lots of people that don't post "original thought". Part of the "stop the games" I was saying is including sources etc.

I get it, he's burned a lot of bridges. He deserves being called out as a fraud, but he isn't going away regardless. I'm just trying to understand.

Is it plagiarization to post the same right wing spam blogs? Going to conservstivetreehouse isn't research...

He plagiarized the entire reputation of a Texas Ranger.

Isn't impersonating a Texas Ranger a felony?

Need a little help here.

We know the Twitter account is not Roscoe B Davis
We are sure it's Mark Barnes.


Is there any real proof to directly link the account to Barnes?

I don't follow him to know for sure, but I don't think what he's doing is a felony in that he's not trying to act in an official capacity as an officer.

He was posting under the same user name here & posting same material

Probably hard on the poor fella. Still trying to understand how someone like this has an otherwise normal family as I remember. Not bringing them into this but they're aware.

---

I cannot say how true this is but Barnes does claim when he was 7 years old his mother threw an electric heater into the bathtub with him.

---

I think that was ketch.

Who, coincidentally, operates as a transparent Barnes. He openly grifts his customers. Flat out tells them things about his own methodologies and behaviors that he is a grifter and they don't care.

Lately, I've actually been wondering if ketch and Barnes are the same.

Confirmation Bias is a hell of a drug. As long as you're telling people what they want to hear, they'll generally belive you, like you, and trust you.

I'm still laughing about the part where he's trying to get people to send him money because he was banned from twitter.

He uses a lot of my descriptors When talking about weakass COVID.

Don't know who you may be talking about but I think I just found my suspect on the virus board

Every time I try and call him out on this board, my posts get deleted

He's a con man.

Imagine what bogus BS he feeds people in person about himself.

Con men give people what they want to hear and can relate to. He posts an exotic car garage in the auto board. Leans hard conservative on the politics boards. Pretends to be in the legal profession to con lawyers. Pretends to be an oil man on TexAgs with a lot of oil industry posters.

Barnes disarms people by playing on their confirmation biases.

Watch the movie "catch me if you can."
The character changes to be what ever will disarm his target. He is a doctor, a pilot, a lawyer, a federal agent.

As y'all know, I can't stand the SOB, but I just had a thought that it might be because I haven't been plagiarized yet!!!

and there is one other person i think may be him but im not going to throw it around publicly

Why do I get a ban for three days for insinuating someone could be a fake account, but nothing for you directly calling me Barnes?

I guess none of you lived on north side.

Was digging through old Barnes threads and somebody found his soundcloud. Looks like he tried to claim to be produced by Bret Michael's label.

Quick Google Reverse Image Search yielded this gem:
