Who's ready for a lolcow crossover? Someone who was in contact with Patch sent me some interesting information:
If this information is accurate, it means that Ryan Hill of all fucking people tried to reach out to Matthew, claiming he wants to give Matthew a fursuit to sneak back into the fandom. I'm honestly surprised that Ryan doesn't have a thread of his own on here yet, but for the uninitiated, the
OP of the KhordKitty thread and
this Pastebin provide a decent summary of Ryan. The quick version is that Ryan Hill is a notorious furry "troll" who hates furries (despite being one himself) and has spent literal years doing stupid attention-grabbing stunts that have gotten him in trouble with the law multiple times. Notable highlights include:
-Attending BLFC 2015 with a pellet gun and threatening to shoot furries. He was arrested but was released shortly afterward.
-Tracing over other people's clean/sfw art and turning it into diaper/scat porn.
-Mocking recently deceased furries, often making sockpuppets impersonating them and spamming their friends/relatives with the aforementioned scat porn.
-Taking credit for the 2014 MFF Chlorine Gas attack (he was allegedly one of the first people the FBI questioned after the incident but he was cleared, though he still insists it was his doing).
-Taking credit for the 2014 Anthrocon bomb threat (he was interviewed and cleared on this one as well).
In addition, a very obvious troll account popped up on Twitter
under the username "Dalmatianspot" (link is NSFW) that seems to do nothing but post scat porn and randomly mention Patch. It also follows several furries who had to deal with Matthew at some point and several individuals who have threads of their own in this site already. Worth noting that the bio inexplicably gets Matthew's basic information wrong, claiming he is 27, single, and living in California (according to Matthew's active Telegram sock bios, Matthew is 24, taken "by a reindeer" and still lives in Pennsylvania). I'll include a screencap of the current tweets under the spoiler, but be warned it's full of scat porn:
Again, I cannot (as of this writing) confirm this is Ryan Hill with 100% certainty or why he suddenly took an interest in Matthew, but the behavior of this user in private messages and his sockpuppet seems to line up almost perfectly with Ryan's long history of belligerent behavior.
