Sure sounds like Thorladen is willing to sell his integrity for money. Sounds like Thor knows that Roman would, too.
Hearsay, of course. Both counts. But I am curious for an explanation.
Glad I randomly decided to check LP.net this is quite the drama. |

Why are people so certain he actually discussed it? It looks to me like that conversation would be easy to fabricate from anywhere. I see a few people in the thread on 2+2 are saying that because he didn't outright claim the chat-log was fake in his first statement that it means he's guilty but I think that's just ridiculous speculation. People should wait to judge until the investigation is complete. |

If that's fabricated it's incredibly impressive they've even got all kinds of old man style typos in there, and they also know a lot about both individuals. |

Also, surely thor would come out straight away and be clear by saying 'this is a completely fabricated chat log' instead of a pretty vague 'I have not engaged in this activity with Sorel.' which doesn't really deny the chat took place. |

you guys are all acting like you would take the high road when faced with a similar situation.
ask yourselves this
if someone you trusted told you they are short on money but have a site that they can see hole cards without being detected and wants you to invest in them part of the bankroll for profit shares, would you not at least hear them out and be interested to determine if it's worth the questionable ethics and the risks?
It's not quite to the extreme in thor's case but honestly he did nothing more than to be intrigued and ask for more details before making a decision on something that could give him a good return on money invested.
In poker and all businesses shit like this in the grey area happens all the time behind closed doors, people just give a shit when it's outed and they were not the ones who had this opportunity and act like they would've turned the other cheek.
Greed is a powerful force. |

So you're saying you'd take the opportunity.
I wouldn't. |

In a situation where you can easily get away with cheating:
- Virtually everyone cheats, but only a little. People still want to feel good about themselves and think they are morally sound people.
- A very small percentage of people cheats a lot.
So, how many of you would turn down the opportunity depends on two things. One, whether you are part of a really small minority of despicable people who basically don't care about morality. Two, how many of you think this is a "little cheat", "white lie" whatever, or something big that you can't reconcile with your conscience. |

Absolutely. If this is not fake it's pretty surprising judgement to let a number of people up for a scam hold this kind of evidence on you. |

If he's consulted a lawyer he'd probably have been told to say nothing. The statement he did release looks pretty careful with it's wording if you ask me. The statement says "I did not participate in these activities" which could easily include the alleged chat-log.
It's also not that difficult to do. All you need is one person who knows both of them quite well and has a grudge against them for any reason. I'm not saying it's even unlikely the chat log existed but it's certainly within the realm of possibility that it was made up. Let the investigation run its course instead of making judgments without all the facts is all I'm saying really. |

Yeah it could include that but if the chat log is a fabrication he probably wouldn't react that way. It looks more like the chat log is genuine and its his way of defending himself. But you're right obv its a mistake to jump to conclusions. |

The crazy thing is thor admits he has alot of money. If ur living a good life and dont have to worry about money why would you even CONSIDER doin this Kaboom. If a good friend of mine told me too cheat i'd tell him to gtfo |
