Hello.

A few years ago I was dumb, stupid, and a degenerate. Well, not really much has changed. But I did scam some people on 2+2 for some money. Not a huge amount, maybe a thousand in total. What I did was wrong and I am willing to compensate anyone I scammed. If you were scammed by me, please contact me by private message. Once I have repayed everyone I obviously consent to being banned.

Sorry everyone.

Also, I scammed under the names Noam Chomsky and Kathleen Standring.

It looks like he's here more or less voluntarily offering to pay back the people that he scammed. There are a lot of people who would be willing to scam strangers for $1000, not so many who would choose to come clean and ultimately correct their mistakes.

I don't really know the story behind this, but from what I can tell the OP deserves a little slack for making this gesture.

Well, the story is that the stunning detective skills of Dean. in BBV found out that Kaz = Andrew Karpinsky = StupidAcesSigh and tied him to scamming Granny Mae, severely marring the name of a semi-respected poster. While I'm shocked that a scammer would keep posting here AND thinks he can keep his rep in tact, I am impressed that he's trying to make amends.

Don't pay GrannyMae.

He probably has money now from the money he made from what he stole from the many posters at this site. With this new money he can make amends for what he did and everything is alright? Wait till his money depletes again and the degenerate returns. If he hadn't made this money back do you think he would have still felt obligated to return it? Definitely not. I'm sure it was against his moral integrity when he did it, but he's still a douchebag. By repaying the debts, I don't think it nearly makes makes up for what he did.

I have no intention of posting here after I finish repaying the people I have scammed; my reputation is obviously tarnished on twoplustwo forever. I will continue to lurk the strat forums because I do play alot of poker. I simply want to put things right.

I don't think I necessarily need to know how or whom he scammed to make a preliminary judgment regarding his effort to pay back the people he wronged.

If you know more about the situation than me and you feel he has ulterior motives for making this post, then so be it. But if all you know about it is what was posted here, then I think you're being too harsh.
