Well, I think I just made the assumption that jhw3 knew what dfurioso was doing to some extent; that they were working together, however informally. There’s no real evidence for this - I just looked at the posting times, and leapt to conclusions. Which was a bit unfair and cynical of me, but hey, middle of election night. I suppose it’s possible that jhw3 sits around hitting refresh every 5 minutes, just in case someone ever starts a thread about one of his comics on barbelith. It just feels more likely that they went ‘round a bunch of message boards together last night, and that jhw3's post to dfurioso’s thread is the equivalent of a ‘this message has been approved by,’ sharing the platform, joint ticket kinda thing.
jhw3's own spammy thread was started straight after that. So, I‘m quite sure they are indeed two separate posters, but I’d tend to think that jhw3 either turned up in book-plugging mode, arm in arm with dfurioso, or else was moved to plug after seeing that dfurioso has already done something similar here, and assuming it must therefore be a-okay.
There’s yet another of those petitions in the Temple, by the way. Because it’s a book about magick!!, natch. |
