Did anyone get arrested for Totse/zoklet activities directly?

2019-04-03 at 11:40 PM UTCI know it's fun to bust -Spectral's balls sometimes, but he's actually telling the truth. The main reason Zoklet got attention from LE was because of the coupon thing. People were arrested. There were way more arrests from &Totse, but that's because &T was part of a period in time where people actually did things other than shitpost in space about Zok having AIDs or whatever. Also, he was indeed a mod of Bad Ideas, and I remember spectral being a relatively good mod because he complimented the spirit of the forum with an extremely Laissez-faire approach.
On a slightly related note, I never did figure out what that guy did with his piss balloons. . . -

2019-04-03 at 11:47 PM UTCAt the time Henderson and the others got popped, there wasn't even any fraudulent coupons on Zoklet. I removed them all. The only thing there was links to some counterfeit coupon resources. The feds still moved in and threatened zok with subpoena (so he willingly cooperated without a warrant), and they still used those links as evidence of coupon forgery.

Not surprising. Zok and Jeff Hunter were in fact roommates, but I don't think Zok really believed in the original message as much as Jeff did. Honestly, Jeff stopped believing in the message as well because he could see the changing times resulted in the site outgrowing its purpose. I remember hot topics in the early 2000s were to the tune of "Do you have a anti-federalist or federalist interpretation of the constitution (and why)?" Posts by the mid to late 2000s were more like "Do you wipe your ass standing up or sitting down?"
The place went downhill pretty fast, and there was time one could justify the occasional strain of necessary law enforcement attention due to the fact that it was a natural consequence of having a free forum of information where no ideas were censored. Unfortunately, the internet became pretty mainstream and technology simply became so accessible that it largely invalidated Jeff's original mission. Add this to the growing culture of fear in the United States, and effectively it reached a point where the site became nothing more than a liability. It really was in everyone's best interest to just walk away. Everything changed so quickly in that decade that a site like Totse wouldn't have served as anything other than a relic of an earlier time.
Afterwards, a few die hard fans who either had no life outside of it (Bill Krozby) or people who hardcore believed the message but didn't want to see it die (-Spectral). The truth is it's over, and a site like this is a funny community to shit post because you can almost certainly say whatever you want. I find it honestly pretty doubtful that taxpayer money is being spent on police monitoring this site even semi-regularly just by virtue of the fact that, even if the people here were actually malicious, almost all of us are too severely retarded to accomplish anything.
