To be fair I can understand him saying he doesn't have Twitter etc, no one needs the grief that comes from the SMB! I'm absolutely certain he has Twitter, albeit he doesn't post much. When I made a comment on Twitter someone responded in a pretty antagonistic way which pissed me off (I think it was the bit calling me a ****e fan that most got my back up!). The rat then referenced the exact same post in a reply with a very similar tone on the message board a few minutes later.
When someone calls you a ****e fan and things you tend to click their bio, I was interested to see if it was him because I'd feel better getting grief from someone I've interacted with previously! The bio of the account said where the lad was from originally and where he is now. Took 2 minutes to confirm it's the same details as the rat has previously mentioned on the message board. It would be quite the coincidence for someone from the same place, who moved to the same place to be commenting on my post in exactly the same manner at about the same time
That said, some take these places far too seriously. I'm not going to go linking the account on the SMB or owt because theres some absolute wronguns on there. I can take a bit of abuse, think "he's being a twat" and move on, others on there can't. It's the one reason I don't use my real name on Twitter, too many wronguns! The rat is fine, just a bit too cocksure of his own opinions. I'm not a ****e fan though ya bugger!
