Who is “psychosaurusx”?


I think they're referring to sillysaurusx. I won't link to the thread, but I don't know what they mean by "only thing of value".


Thanks for the explanation. I kind of get it now.

They made a sock puppet account, in order to make an accusation at someone - and deliberately obscured the name of the person they were insulting. That’s a kind of “dog-whistle” technique.

Either they are genuinely scared of speaking out against this sillysaurusx person, or they know it’s an unfair accusation and they wouldn’t say it openly.

It just struck me as a really out of place comment, a very odd way to act. And embedding dang’s username in their sock puppet account name?

I get bad vibes from this one.
