Soo, Pincus was sentenced to 18 MONTHS of prison, right? It says so in the wiki....
Many contributors though that Pincus would never troll again, but then in April 2011, there was a post apparently created by Pincus Shain. Some users, like Enraged Giga were alarmed by this, but others dismissed it to be fake and told Enraged Giga to calm down. Then, in June 2011, another post by Pincus was found, but still not genuine. On December 2011, a Pincus apparently announced his successor for the empire of Trolltopia, but, this turned out to be an impersonator.
In March 2012, Pincus returned with his "Your Lord" account, stating he had been sentenced to jail for 18 months due to cyber-crimes. He warned the other users to not make the same mistakes he did, then left all the forums forever. This Pincus was later confirmed genuine, and many users were shocked at what Pincus experienced. He described it as:
I give you guys all one piece of advice. Dont wind people up online. If one of them hurts themsevles as a result and its determined that it was due to bullying, the courts will hold you accountable for it. Prison is not fun at all. Less so when you are young. It was literally hell and some of the abuse and horrors we went through will probably give me nightmares for the rest of my life. You walk out that place, look in the mirror and realise that you are not the same person you were before. You dont even recognise yourself in the mirror. Beyond that, nobody wants to know you anymore, friends or family and its hell finding a job or accomodation.
Pincus then warned users to not do what he did, and not troll. He then later left the empire forever, due to his online monitoring.
There were APPARENTLY 2 "impersonators"..... .

Bullshit. I recall both the April 2011 post and the June 2011 post. In April 2011 he said something casual and EG created a bunch of drama. In June 2011 he told Nitrox a way to register on IP(He didn't have an email address)
Why exactly is this dismissed as "impersonation"? The posters had the same, and MORE IMPORTANTLY HAD A LONDON IP.
So I salute you CF, you've exposed SK's lies again.
