Yet here we are, on autoadmit, the forum that claims prestige in legal discourse, where the law is so absent it borders on parody. A place where reputations are casually shredded, mental health dismissed, and sometimes, lives are lost. The same place where wmtp, a real person, not a character in our endless threads, posted for years, showing in post after post what this forum was doing to him, whether you chose to see it or not.

And you laughed.

You mocked him, baited him, and when he disappeared, you shrugged. Maybe he finally logged off. Maybe he finally snapped. The truth? He died. Silently. Alone. With only a digital grave and a few archived threads to mark his passing.

Now, contrast that with Charles. He lost a job. The media jumped. CNN, NYT, Reddit, Twitter. A headline. A scandal. A viral takedown. Because that was profitable. But Watchmen? No one reported on his death. No journalists knocking on doors. No public reckoning. Because he didn't sell. He just died.

To every lawyer here, the dozens of you who lurk with JDs and federal clerkships. You know there's a shared responsibility here. You knew what was happening. You saw the spiral. You read his posts. You witnessed a man deteriorating in real time and you did nothing.

It's easy to single out OpraSoprano, but the truth is, this culture was fed by many hands. This isn't just about one poster. It's about a culture that's been allowed to thrive unchecked for far too long. It's been seven years. Time to bring this to justice. Time to make justice for Watchmen.

Don't pretend this was just "the Internet." You built your careers on the idea that words have weight. That truth matters. That law matters. But when it was one of your own, you logged out.

So now what? Do you admit what this place has become? Do you face what you've enabled? Or do you bury Watchmen again, this time under silence?

This is only the first post. I was asked to speak. I won't be the last.

If you give a damn, fucking prove it.

This place eats its own and calls it tradition.

His identity was dragged across the Internet, including beyond this forum. No one said XO pulled the trigger. But you passed the gun around, laughed while it was loaded, and now act like you didn't hear the shot.

I didn't ask for censorship, so stop crying like a baby. Basically, outing should be dealt with better.

Is calling something 'womanly' the only way you can feel like a man? Lol.

the womanly part is being freaked out by words, your hysteria is exactly the kind of womanly hysteria that has women around the world begging for more internet censorship from big daddy government

in other words, shut the fuck up you hysterical beaner woman

If anyone knows his raghead parents phone number I’ll call them and tell them what a fag their son was and post the clip to xo

Sometimes the things you love doing the most hurt you. He also loved heroin because he said it made him feel at peace with the world and every living thing. He couldn't control his addiction to this website and he couldn't control his addiction to drugs and alcohol (although he vastly preferred drugs). He should have been in Narcotics Anonymous. He should have gone to rehab like he was planning to. Maybe he didn't kill himself intentionally but got unlucky.

In my opinion Watchmen's death was about more than XO. It wasn't about this site pushing him to the brink. It was about someone with inner demons that caught up to him. It's extremely sad and I'd do anything to have my friend back. But I don't think it's accurate to say that the bort or its culture pushed him over the edge. Caring too much about this place was a factor but not the whole. He struggled in every aspect in life. He was depressed about not having a career, he was depressed about failed relationships, and he was a drug addict. I love him but XO didn't kill him imo. He struggled in life very broadly.

You are the most disgusting and selfish “people” imaginable

Fuck you

We grew apart the last couple years of his life. A big rift was I got a real job and was working full time and he just sat around at home. I grew apart from a lot of people in that time period. I couldn't relate to him as much not like in the days when we were young and broke and hanging out shooting the breeze.

I had absolutely no clue he was spiraling out of control. He mentioned he had gotten back into heroin again but that wasn't unusual for him. I just saw it as just another phase. He would come and go with it all the time. I didn't notice he sounded fucked up in his emails. He mentioned the feud with OpSop and her custody battle. We never talked about him being outed. He was supposed to go to rehab and I was out of the country. When I got back his phone was disconnected. I just assumed he started over and changed his life. I was unwilling to think the worst until I was confronted with evidence. Thank you for your poast.
