The best recent posting is by "admin." It looks like the police, but I'm guessing a regular joe has just typed "admin" as the name. The post says that they want to arrest the moderators of eslcafe.com for libel against Korea. Ha ha ha ha!

Looks to me like 'admin' is a foreigner having a bit of a laff.

He's been doing that for months. The real police admin has told him no laws have been broken. But he keeps trying.

Maybe we should bring to their attention the P.E.S.P. or whatever they're calling "Babopalooza 2".

Maybe he's a disgruntled employer?

Read what they posted in reply to someone using my username to snitch on Goldmember.

Thanks for your report.
However, only with the clues you posted, it is hard to go on an investigation. If you want to give us more information and credibility about your report, please visit the office of the Foreign Affairs 3, SMPA.


They want more information from the guy, not for him to stop trolling.

Yeah, there's nothing stopping anyone from posting with that screen name.

That must be a more recent post. The older ones were told nothing wrong has been done. I think it was specifically about the Dave's Get-together night.

The one I was quoting was written by the police on October 30.

I think that is their way of saying "come to our office so we can properly thank you for wasting our time". He would be pretty foolish to go there.

Looks like they erased all the fake threads started by "admin." So I guess the police aren't offering a reward leading to the arrest of administrators on this site.

I wish they would also erase his other pseudonymed posts (at least, I assume it's the same guy posting about arresting everyone here under different Dave's poster's names)

Why do I find myself wondering if indeed you have something to do with the trolling over there, Kevin?

What a sad direction that site has gone down. I wish they would just make it require real names and ID numbers to post. I feel embarrassed every time I visit that site.

I can only imagine what a waste of time the admins think about replying to those posts.
