Lexmark3200/TLADINY/Scott Aruti/DJ Scotty banned!
I was over at Audioholics and found this...........
http://forums.audioholics.com/forums...ad.php?t=17608
Looks like our old buddy has been banned for plagiarism (sp?). He has been copying other people DVD Review work! :eek:
What a dumbass fraud! :D
Makes you wonder how many of his reviews here are his own? Looks like the guy he ripped off might be going after him.
Oooooo! My day is complete now.
:cool:

hmmm, and the review posted June 2001 certainly looks identical to this one dated Dec 12, by our own lex...whoever DJ Scotty may be....

that same Shining dvd review is in our fav films section, shouldn't it be removed for plagiarism as well?
not sure if that's in the user guidelines or not, but sure seems like a pretty crappy thing to let happen on your site if the admin people can check it out and do something about it.
Edit: Woops, that was nodin's comment above, hate flogging a dead horse.

Thanks for the heads up guys.
With hundreds of posts per day it's impossible to check them. This one was an obvious plagiarism. If you see ANY more from this member please tell us.

I am not totally surprised at all
I am all over the net looking at different review styles we could perhaps implement here in the near future. I have seen alot of reviews that look like the our own little out of date printers reviews. He doesn't even know that much about the basic format to do any kind of video or sound review on any DVD. I am just not surprised at all(shakes head, kicks dirt, and leaves)

Guess what?
We have a new member...................... DJ Scotty!
This is the most pathetic and sad, lying , lost sole that I have ever seen on the net.

Wow! Looks like the day of reckoning has arrived for the "professional reviewer." The DVD Town reviewer that Lex thieved from has not been taking this lightly, and has gotten Lex banned from the DVD Talk, Audioholics, and Home Theater Talk sites, all of which I will lurk on from time to time.
http://www.dvdtown.com/messageboard/topic/11/20338/
He posts the same crap on every one of those sites, even recycling topics that he's written about on other boards; and there are the usual thin-skinned accusations and persecution complex that comes out whenever anyone disagrees with him. Those of us who've been on the board for an extended time have seen his act time and time again under all kinds of different names. Some of the more memorable exchanges under his previous To Live And Die In NY moniker (and his laughable denials about his other screen names when he started posting under the Lexmark3200 name) are linked below. These hijacked threads are hilarious!

A simple Google search will find that he doesn't just dump on home theater boards, but automotive sites as well. If he's really a "professional reviewer," I don't see how this amateurish attitude can carry him too far. Here are some choice gems that I've found on some other sites. (His anti-women tirade on the Home Theater Talk "War of the Worlds" discussion is both disturbing and side-splittingly funny)

While it's time to pop the champagne corks that this twit has left the building and exposed for the fraud that most of us already knew he was, there is a slight bit of sadness in the air. I mean, who else is going to assume the role of the AR court jester? The entertainment value of Lex's synaptic misfires was priceless! Last thing any of us would want is for him to get well and start posting like a normal person.
Oh well, it will only be a matter of time before he tries another screen name, or starts posting on yet another site!

Well said! For those of us that have been dealing and "communicating" with this guy for a few years now, it's kindof like there is now a void here now. Lex was a fraud from day one but he was an entertaining fraud none the less. But, he crossed the line with he ripped off another writer word for word. I know he is probably screaming at his monitor in frustration when he reads these post about his demise. Helpless to do anything about it now. But, like you said, he will be back under another moniker. That is for sure. As many of us know, he has to get the last word no matter what.

I'm still speechless about this thread below. The same one Wooch put up. I have nothing bad to say about anyone, but did you read this thread. I did not think it was funny at all. Other words come to mind (yes I'm talking to myself)

I was deeply disturbed by what I read, but it does answer some question about his behavior on this, and other forums I have encountered him on. You are such a nice guy, you will never be truely Terrible!

Nah! I'm as crazy as the next guy. I'm just smart enough to keep it to myself. ;)

After reading 10 or so disturbing pages in that hometheatertalk.com thread, I can say 2 things:
1) Lexmark/Scott Aruti/TLADINY/DJ Scotty is a wiener.
2) We need to get that Mike Knapp guy to come to ar.com.

Ok, after only 2 mindnumbing pages, I can't take it. Could some one write up some Cliff notes on the 11 page monster giving the highlights?

I thought 'urm' came close. Maybe 'urp' would've have been a better choice?

Well hell, maybe I should learn from you. Maybe I could get rid of this Terrible thing at the end of my moniker.
