I prefer to have my nightmares with open eyes.
Alright, I'll try and explain this the best I can. Joshuaag's way of typing, constantly reminding everyone he is black, and making up fake information about himself reminded me very much of someone else.
Nerfed, also known as frugal, holy grail, time to sell, etc.
I decided to look into it a bit, and I found some compelling although a bit circumstantial evidence.
Firstly the interests overlap almost perfectly. Runescape, WoW, etc etc. Which I suppose isn't too uncommon for this kind of forum.
The next thing I found was this:
http://prntscr.com/7v55vg (Nerfed)
http://prntscr.com/7v55yg (Josh)
Notice the same wording and color, looks like he referred to his other MM thread. Although I knew that wouldn't be enough alone.
I was looking for similar threads and this is what I found:
Firstly this: http://www.sythe.org/spam-forum/1515950-rwmrs2-support-center-mod.html
And this: http://www.sythe.org/spam-forum/1779801-josh-mod.html
Could be coincidental, but it made me want to dig more since at this point I'm starting to realize its the same guy.
So I found this: http://www.sythe.org/runescape-3-skill-training/1812157-joshuas-combat-training-service-100-donor-135-vouches-trusted.html
And this: http://www.sythe.org/oldschool-runescape-skill-training/1693317-50-donor-unholygrails-combat-skilling-service-quick-fast-cheap.html
Exact same wording "combat skilling service"
I kept checking, and many threads were very similar. Too many to link.
But then I struck gold. On a thread Nerfed posted he wrote a phone number. When you google it, it links to the information of a Joshua *I have his last name also* And I remembered it from before when I was looking into Nerfed. The phone number has links to Nerfed's website, address, criminal offense, etc. Joshuaag and Joshua? Not a coincidence.
I feel the extremely similar behavior (which I've become good at recognizing) as well as the same name is enough to prove that they're the same person.
I can dig more if need be, but it should be enough.
