    Well I mean, it's only been 8 days, maybe he just has off-internet life issues to attend to.

    He sent me a message just before he left, explaining. I hope he changes his mind, but it seems unlikely.

    Oh, well that's unfortunate. I liked him, I thought he was alright. I do hope he comes back.

    Gone to shit implies that at some point, it wasn't a shitty thread. I assure you that this was not the case.

    I think it's important to be mindful of the strong opinions in any Internet forum. No one will ever agree with you 100% of the time unless they are afraid of you or have other motives.

    I don't think I saw the guys say they plugged MDS with the HLN lady saying "Jodi Arias Blog." I don't think I read anyone say it was a plug for MDS. I know people were discussing how it wouldn't be hard to find MDS through google if someone googled Jodi. Even if they googled "Jodi Arias Blog."

    Reading comprehension much?

    It's not my impression that coconut was upset because people did not agree with him 100% of the time. He got that constantly on the main thread, and it never seemed to bother him at all. He was one of the few people who regularly voiced a dissenting opinion and played devil's advocate in support of the defense, and he took a lot of flak for it. Many people disagreed with him daily, but it did not seem to phase him at all, and he didn't get nasty in response. This went on for months and it never bothered him in the least. So while we may or may not agree with his reason for leaving, I don't want people to have the impression that he was thin skinned or that he left merely because someone disagreed with him.

    Frankly, for the contingent who thinks most or all of the Jodi thread posters are mindless cheerleaders incapable of rational thought, it is very ironic that you managed to chase away one of the few posters who regularly, rationally, and with good humor, was the voice of dissent. Well done.

    No, no, we think a lot of the posters are crazy, annoying, obsessive, long-winded, and boring weirdos. Not mindless.

    So didn't he check out on verdict day? I think he would have stuck around if the jury didn't go against everything he was arguing the whole time he was here, which the majority of the thread agreed with. If he was so thick skinned, why is he gone?

    This is what coconut wrote on 5-8

Credit the jury for looking past style and these shortcomings, and sticking to the evidence to get it right.

    The jury probably disregarded the entire defense testimony as a whole because it was built on Jodi's lies. That leaves the crime scene photos, autopsy results, the hard evidence of her planning. The objective stuff that we can't dispute. I think there can be some doubts about her plans but to the jury those doubts were not reasonable.



    All the popular kids are doing it!

    I still think that this case was a slam dunk for any moderately competent prosector, but Juan at times verged dangerously close to losing the plot (much to my entertainment). If Jodi had not lied so much, had not changed her story so much, had gotten an attorney right after her arrest, had argued for heat of passion, had been more likeable, Martinez would have had much less margin for error. Fortunately for us he the jury gave him a pass on his mistakes and shit personality.

    No. I posted that because the thread was dead.

    I've never said I didn't like this thread. I stated my case on the fuckery that is the Jodi-craze.

    Some of us base things on fact not opinion. Honestly, did you just say that someone leaving the forum is good? Coconut was a devils advocate and when the verdict was read, he really had nothing more to add. Plus, maybe that's all he was waiting for..climax then you go to sleep or ramble on with the afterglow which didn't happen for him.

    Ahhhh...he had some funny things to add. I guess I thought he brought something to the thread other than everyone preaching all about Juan. What chased him away, I guess no one will ever know unless he comes back.

    There is plenty of fuckery going on in every thread, are you sure that you didn't think along with a few others on that one?

    I don't understand why people who have never interacted with coconut are saying they didn't like him. You are calling him "flaky" because of a couple of things he posted? That doesn't seem fair.
