That's right, I am now fully convinced that /u/jcm267 was 'Nolibs'. Many users have claimed this over the years but they never had sufficiently convincing evidence to support it, until now.

First let's review some recent history:

Two weeks ago, on April 23rd 2016, /u/jcm267 unexpectedly and mysteriously deleted his 7+ year old reddit account. More posts about this: /r/SubredditDrama, /r/Drama. People delete accounts all the time, but this particular user was extremely proud of this account's age, frequently boasting about how he was a "model redditor" (often bizarrely referring to himself in the third-person while doing so). Here is a link to web archives of his userpage, showing that he at times moderated nearly 70 subreddits with this account alone. Coinciding with him deleting his account he made his alt /u/JerkStores (already know as his) a moderator in his favorite subreddits, and then proceeded to delete that account and made a brand new alt /u/Jerk_Stores a mod there. He has since deleted that account as well.

Just before he deleted his /u/jcm267 account, he made a sockpuppet, /u/venganzdivino, a moderator of his most prized possession: /r/The_Donald. This account has long been suspected to have been used by jcm267's long-time e-friend /u/TheGhostOfTzvika (aka the long shadowbanned tzvika613), but he flatly denies that here (archive). The fact that the venganzdivino account was given more moderator powers than TheGhostOfTzvika in The_Donald corroborates this. So does this screenshot from a couple years ago which shows that the account was modded along with another jcm267 sockpuppet, /u/surdelmundo, to /r/Paul2016, a subreddit created by jcm267 purely to keep others from using it (a shady tactic that he employed often, known as "squatting", see /r/RonPaul2016 for example). Both of these accounts are named to mimic the names of Digg.com accounts once used (over 8 years ago) by the moderators of /r/EndlessWar, a subreddit that jcm267 hates with a white-hot passion (as we'll see later he created many other mimic accounts in this fashion to harass the mods there with, ie anything with "avenging*" or variants of the name "caferrell").

Weeks before all of this, the last account to openly claim to be "Nolibs", the ~2 year old /u/GiveYourBestEffort, was deleted on Feb. 29 2016.

jcm267 throws his long-time right-hand-man NYPD-32 under the bus:

/u/NYPD-32 (previously known as /u/NYPD32, /u/TheRealNYPD32 and various other NYPD## iterations) was for the past few years jcm267's most trusted friend and cat's-paw on reddit (given that "Nolibs" was a fiction). He created the anti-/r/NolibsWatch subreddit /r/stalkerwatch and he and various other adherents of the "Nolibs jcm267 Crew" (such as /u/robotevil, /u/voodoomurphy, /u/duckvimes_ and /u/NewJerseyFreakShow AKA /u/AlmightySonOfBob) spent a lot of time there and elsewhere spinning vile defamation about myself and the readers/mods of this subreddit. Their favorite tactic was to repeatedly falsely accuse others of being anti-Semitic. Conflating "conspiracy theory" with anti-Semitism, painting the act of investigating and exposing wrongdoing with that exploitative stigma brush, seemed conspicuously important to them (and still does).

When jcm267 took control of /r/The_Donald from its creator back in June of 2015 he made /u/NYPD-32 the #2 mod. It stayed that way for months. As time went on /r/The_Donald exploded in activity (another big whistle-blower post about that filled with evidence hopefully coming soon) and dozens more mods were added. When jcm267 suddenly deleted himself, he also de-modded NYPD-32 and two other moderators in order to make /u/CisWhiteMaelstrom the top mod.

This betrayal blindsided NYPD-32 and disaffected him toward jcm267, causing him to became willing to talk openly (and privately to "ex-enemies") about the deceptions and machinations that jcm267 frequently employed to manipulate reddit. Here are a few of NYPD-32's recent exposé posts that followed his ouster from The_Donald: a massive comment in /r/SubredditDrama confirming that jcm267 was /u/Jerk_Stores, a post in /r/subredditcancer mostly about CisWhiteMaelstrom and yet another post there detailing jcm267's penchant for using what he calls "deep cover socks" and outing one of them: /u/politicalmoderate (screen of the subreddits he modded with that account).

jcm267 was behind the "Nolibs" 'old man' persona for years (possibly always)

Since his initial deletion a lot of his sockpuppets have been exposed, and many of them have been deleted in the past few days. Most of these accounts were listed here and here and were years old. I checked them all last week to see if he was still posting with any of them (he wasn't) and none of them were deleted then. NYPD-32's whistle-blowing on jcm267's confessed strategy of using "deep cover socks" has caused a cascade of panic and attempted track covering by this creepy liar and admitted troll.

In this PM conversation NYPD-32 tells me that he strongly suspects that jcm267 was behind the "Nolibs" persona. For context, here are the two archive links mentioned in that screenshot: http://archive.is/0DJRF & http://archive.is/zdW0W.

Quotes from NYPD-32 (emphasis mine):

I think he had made the decision to bail on the account 1-2 weeks before it actually happened so he was maneuvering a bit. That top account is his, in fact most of the alts you attribute to "Nolibs" I'm pretty sure are his. And honestly I wouldn't be shocked to learn nolibs is JCM. A cartoonish old man hanging out on digg and reddit or an extension of an alt-prone troll? I think Occam's razor might have something to say about that. Or perhaps nolibs used to be another entity but they're long gone and JCM took over the persona himself. I've seen that happen on message boards and other mediums.

...

RonPaulHatesGayes and RevengeofJosh offhand, I'm sure I could find more if I bothered to take time. I don't know what I would say in a post, I can't verify anything for sure. GYBE did start to look like a "deep sock" as I described though, it was mostly article spam with a few comments in business subs. I got the vibe that GYBE was shut down because it was too much time and effort to maintain.

...

Yeah that's a threebie, jcm, jerkstores, revengeofjosh.

This last quote proves that jcm267 was using multiple accounts (previously tagged as "Nolibs" sockpuppets) to agree with himself and pretend to be multiple people as recently as April 17th, 2016. This is the very same behavior that he loudly pretended to deplore for years.

Yeah [REDACTED journalist] PM'ed the_donald mod mail back when we were small, it was our first media solicitation I think. That's the article I had in mind when I was bitching him out for giving out shit. I don't think he's "lucifer in the flesh" (borrowing a recent news phrase), he does seem to just have a lot of time on his hands. Most people who deal with him for extensive periods of time usually just end up feeling pity for him. Doesn't seem effective or smart enough to be a contract astroturfer. If I was paying him I'd want my money back.

Another telling bit of evidence that jcm267 was behind the "Nolibs" persona, which frequently and conspicuously discussed his age (mid 60s), wealth and business acumen:

• https://www.reddit.com/r/NolibsWatch/comments/2ftxyo/for_the_record_nolibs_fucks_up_and_reveals_that/ (Sept. 8th, 2014)

  Nolibs accidentally indicates that he was a teenager living at home with his parents in the mid-90s. (screen)

  The minimum wage at the time was $4.25.

  Can't keep the lies straight huh, GrampaNo?

This was one of jcm267's rare lapses in maintaining the illusion prior to the past 2 weeks. He seems to have accidentally mixed up his own history with that of his imaginary 'old man' friend's.

Remember Joshua Goldberg? Right now he's in a mental institution instead of a prison because he exhibited remarkably similar behavior. Is the childish insult popularized by jcm267, "Conspiratard", making more sense now? Projection.
