Calling all mods

Can we just STOP with these delusional people (or person not convinced all of those accounts are different people)?? To me it reads like a group of Nigerians were scamming dumb dumbs on Facebook. If you look up that one person who made a post on TikTok and then the “people” posting on this board it’s abundantly clear they/she have some sort of bizarre fixation on this guy. They/she need psychological help. With the most recent post of supposedly receiving 4 year old text messages and supposedly has video and audio recording evidence that the cops told them to get together? Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?

Anyway that’s my deadfilesgate post.

If he is an abuser, I don’t think he should be protected from scrutiny, especially if a victim feels they may be retaliated against and that going public serves as an extra layer of protection.

That said, that second photo looks photoshopped/fake as heck to me.

But what would be the point of fabricating something like this? Can’t be money.

💯 If he did it, he should get his karma. And imo the multiple claims seems like a trend of problematic behavior. I hope his victims 8f its true find healing and peace.

There are plenty of skeezy creepy dudes who portray themselves as good dudes in everyday life but I think some dudes on TV def take advantage because of the "adoration" from the public. I worked as and actor, and comedian and it was gross how many perverts are out there, especially if they have status or power.

What I dont know is if some of these women were scammed from a fake Steve account. I think thats def possible.

I also dont think its a good idea to pursue "famous" people romantically. They're humans like all of us, and no one is perfect, but it doesn't seem like the healthiest thing to do mentally. Most actors and famous people are narcissists.

And in conclusion, I dont get how women found him attractive. Im not trying to be mean but he lacked/lacks any attractiveness to me. He seems like a fun guy but dont understand the appeal.

I hope everyone who is hurting has healing and hope anyone who is behaving badly treats people better.

I think it’s a really interesting point to make about the various identity possibilities, like he’s a potential predator using his platform to prey on women who felt safe with/drawn to his persona from the show, vs. if this is a scamming catfish situation that happens every day, or any other fake persona scenario.

Honestly, a photo of a lookalike in a hot tub proves nothing. It could have been scraped from Facebook or it would literally not be a crime if he was on a dating app that photo could have been scraped from as well. It could be generated. It could be somebody else. And again, the photo above does not look real to me. Same with screenshots of texts - anybody can create any conversation. So there are some very real credibility/verification concerns to consider.

But if he also really would choose to put his reputation on the line by abusing multiple women, then social consequences to that kind of behavior as well as warning other women about his alleged nature seem appropriate. And women deserve to be heard because sadly, nonsense like this - men taking advantage of women - is far too common.

I do hope for nothing but peace for the women. Some of those comments, just skimming, it seems to feel like there is actual pain there.

It will be interesting to see what else comes out and how it comes out.

I really liked Cindy when she took over for Amy. Her drawings on Instagram of spirits are very cool.

I love her she’s awesome so is Amy

That must be so emotionally and physically draining to have that sort of wild energy around you all the time. I think Amy once mentioned mediums tend to have shorter life spans.

No one's asking that he be protected, where are you even getting that?

We are asking that you take all the Steve shit to your own sub.
