    Thanks Gadi.
    However, I'm going to call you on this:
    1. What "easy analysis" are you using?
    I listed my approaches. If you are using a different approach, I'd
    like to hear what it is. (I'm not trying to be argumentative -- I
    want to learn.)
    2. You said, "n3td3v is not gobbles".
    Do you know for a fact that n3td3v is not Gobbles Security?
    is this an interpretation?
    If you know for a fact, then how do you know?
    1-Sep-2006, a new person controlling the n3td3v account appeared.
    He is likely English/Brit (based on the topics he posted). But I did not
    see enough text to analyze.
    The older n3td3v postings were by 3 people, not one person.
    (And primarily by three people -- a few postings were ambiguous and could
    indicate more people.)
    1. He speaks Real English.
    2. He mentions UK currency.
    3. He said as much, speaking of UK issues.
    4. He gave his real name.
    Your analysis is amazing, and shows how these things should be done. But
    misses that much. Gobbles was about fun, n3td3v took himself seriously
    rather than just his goal of making the world a better place.
    Aside to that, yes, I know. But as I can't mention how, it's silly for me
    to stick to anything but the above.

    >From the UK. Highly likely from the North of England or Scotland.

    Did you ever talk to n3td3v or ask him? Behind all that posted, he really
    seems like a good guy with good intentions.
    Your analysis really is good, but it comes to no conclusions. I want to
    advoid the "yes he is" "no he isn't" discussion that's to follow. View my
    comments as "opinion".
    Why idolize people?

    It's K anybody start vulnerability research from script(php or perl),
    but it's not good for someone to stay at "script kid" level, huh?

    There are any counter-measures to language the ****ing? The automated aid of
    language standardisation? Real English this, no.?

    While I like the fact someones analysed all this and come to a
    conclusion, I believe its the wrong conclusion.

    In my opinion n3td3v was always one person. He's Scottish from
    Edinburgh, posted in various states of mind ranging from straight
    headed, to blindly drunk. Also you have to take into consideration
    that he could be a paranoid schizophrenic. K so I'm no doctor or
    personality analyst, but it did look that way sometimes.

    Also, the impression that there are more than one person was only ever
    given by himself. Starting a google group means **** all, all I ever
    saw was listings of posts on all the mailing lists. That means
    nothing. I could start the colweb group now on google and claim to be
    a group of security specialists, doesnt mean its true.

    Also there was a couple of instances where people impersonated him, so
    that might muddy the water somewhat. Also didnt help that he used 2 or
    3 email addresses from time to time to get past blocking.

    So I stick to my personal opinion of the great man -
    1. person
    2. Good intentions overall
    3. Not great communication skills (depends how drunk he is)
    4. Too paranoid for his own good
    5. Living in Ediburgh
    6. Most likely Scottish

    Cheers.

    ok despite everything (assuming he isnt suffering from personality
    disorder ) he has communicated with so many people. been with many his
    type in friendship & flame war and other stuffs.

    I still have a question (though he was good his way) how can someone
    who have acted so STUPID & irrational in conversation be intelligent
    enough to hide his online identity to a fair degree?

    I'd say he created few personalities on his own mind, played them like
    puppets & hide the REAL himself in the noise. I am intrested enough to
    track him down. lets see!

    Did any of the list members stop for a second to think that the infamous
    troll is posting on the list to this day, still looking for ways to make
    him feel good about himself ?

    I find it most disturbing that thanks to you people, he might have the
    possibility to tell people "Look how famous I am!".

    N3td0rk! If you're posting about yourself again from one of your split
    personalities, STP IT! It's gonna only confuse you even more and your
    nervous breakdown when you'll realise that you're nothing more then a
    scene whore with no future whatsoever will be worse then you can
    imagine.
