Poll - Whatever happed to Dougster?
TheeOSU
FUCK IT!
I don't recall interacting with him much but I do recall he was at times a polarizing figure here. Some hated him, some loved him. He hasn't posted since November, half a year. The question today is, whatever happened to Dougster?
Poll "choose one option only"
1. He has entered the great hereafter joining other passed TUSCL members.
2. His wife caught him posting here and cut him off until he promised to quit posting.
3. His mom caught him posting here and confiscated his online access toys.
4. He's posting under another account that he was often accused of having.
5. He found religion and has repented.
6. I'm Dougster!
7. You're Dougster!
8. Something else, "specify"
Disclaimer: There is no correct answer.

He had moved to NYC and seemed to be doing well. I hope he has become successful and has a girlfriend--who won't let him waste his time on TUSCL.
I was indifferent to him. Trolling Rick was funny at times but sometimes he seemed to get a little too obverse waive about it.
Another part thinks he finished school got a job and didn't have time to troll an internet forum 24 hrs a day.
I'm still positive that 95 percent of his claims were bullshit.
Or the other option is he dropped dead from a heart attack. Seems unlikely that such a regular poster would totally disappear unless he was dead or LE was after him.
You're the only person that ever admitted to PM him. That fascinates me.
He always left me alone. I'm not sure why.
Brilliant!
"I heard he got into a tragic accident that involved using his vacuum cleaner as a masturbation toy. They couldn't re-attach it, so they fashioned a new one from his thumb"
Double brilliant!
When China's economy went to shit, he was in a long position when he should have been in a short position.
Either that, or he lost his ass on frozen concentrated orange juice futures.

Exactly! He even went so far as to pick on this guy who drinks gravy and lives.....
...oh wait a minute.

I could be wrong, but I thought he mentioned moving to New York in one discussion. His last Seattle area review was in 2014 and later a bunch of NYC reviews popped up.
He really did seem to be knowledgeable about finance -- could have been BS - but I assumed he moved to NYC to work in finance.
But I could be wrong
w.r.t. Dougster could have been anything:
+ figured he wanted to stop wasting his time on TUSCL?
+ had something serious that required his full attention - family situation (health of a loved-one); health issues w/ himself; work/financial issues?
Or something unfortunate could have happened but hopefully that's not the case.
I doubt he would be posting as an alias and it not be super-obvious since his posting style was very unique - plus he was very upfront and straight-forward; i.e. not the type to sneak around using an alias to post what was on his mind.
w.r.t. whom he attacked and whom he didn't - I think he would go after anyone that would say something negative about him or his comments or anyone that was too boastful of their PL accomplishments; o/w he wouldn't go after people just b/c, IMO.
