Tavington
From CaseyPedia
Tavington is a professional troll who has been aggravating Internet users for the better part of a decade. He first appeared on Exurban Nation immediately after the June 11th, 2007 Haterz™-cast in order to promote the Supporterz™-cast[1][2]. Tavington claims to have been lurking[3] and is neither a troll[4] nor the Australian host[5]. Tavington believes that Casey's sudden disappearance from Sacramento and reappearance in Australia is only a vacation.[6]
Tavington has apparently dedicated his entire life to the Art of Trolling.[7][8][9]He was best described by respected Haterz™ The Dude:
- "That is, without a doubt, the dumbest mutherfocker I've ever talked to....."[10]
He is also still claiming to be the real Casey at http://iamfacingforeclosurethereturn.blgspot.com (which we all know as fake since KC says real Web2.0 guru's always have their OWN domain for bloggin'!).
[edit] Tavington on the Haterz™
- "The HATERZ are anti-American as far as I'm concerned... FULL STOP."[11]
- "The Haterz' actions are preventing Casey from making an honest living from his blog."[3]
- "I suspect that if it were not for the "haterz" he might be doing better right now."[12]
[edit] Tavington on Casey's income
- "were you around when Casey made $3000 in ONE WEEK (that is $150,000 per annum) at the end of May?"[13]
- "All I did was average out the conflicting reports of $2600-$3500 (various sources) to $3000 and multiply that by 50 (sorry, maybe it should have been 52)."[14]
- "Assuming a worst-case scenario--you multply $2600 by 12, and that is a little over $30,000 a year. It doesn't mean that Casey cannot make money persuing other ventures during that time."[15]
[edit] Tavington on Casey's Comeback
- "I believe that Casey will come back stronger than ever."[16]
- "I think that Casey will surprise a lot of you guys, just watch. Anyone can fail at real estate during the downmarket period."[17]
- "Casey has faced much worse before and he will overcome this adversity."[18]
- "there are more supporterz out there than you will ever know."[19]
[edit] Tavington on Galina
- "Casey has explicitly said on his blog that he has not left G penniless."[20]
[edit] Tavington on the DMCA
- "I think that Casey is perfectly justified to file a DMCA complaint with Google."[21]
- "I wonder if the 'sleuths' who outed Casey's deal with Marty can be charged under the DMCA? America has the Bill of Rights, and I view this as a serious breach of privacy and an attempt to destroy Casey's marketability and ability to make an honest living."[22]
[edit] Tavington on Real Estate
- "IT WOULD BE STUPID for you not to take advantage of an ARM loan to make even more money."[14]
- "Many extremist believers in the so-called "housing bubble" will rent for 10 years to wait for the market to come down and expect it to be a buyer's market."[23]
[edit] Tavington on the Master Cleanse
On or before September 26, 2008, Tavington emailed Casey indicating that he was interested in doing a "Master Cleanse" and asking for tips. The result was a truly tasteless and medically uninformed post on TC, which included the now infamous "It's not a fart!" comment[24]. Tavington later posted a comment on TC claiming that he had tried the cleanse for a brief period but had quit because he was hungry.
