Why did you create the Jamie Craven multiple and post under it on two forums?

Not sure it's a darts related question but I'll take it. Even if my memory is a bit clouded, that was years ago but I'll try to answer to the best of my ability.

I originally created the Craven account to post on doublefinish. I don't consider that a multiple because well, I just signed up to a different forum on a different name. I used a different less serious posting style than under The Thorn account. Then I signed up on here as well. Not really for any reason, other than that was fun. On one particularly glorious occasion I made a fool of Ginge completely, still my finest accomplishments across forums. So yes it was for things like that, you can call it trolling. I'm not really a multiple type of guy, as I said before Craven was my only one and I never denied it was me once the news came out. I thought it would be fun to do and I still think it was fun. It's nothing more than that. It has run its course. I haven't created any other multiples since and I'm not going to.

Was TDF really your first darts forum?

Or did you initially post on Steve Metalman's forum?

TDF was my first.

I read on that forum as well as DartsNutz before I joined TDF, but I never signed up to either

2015 Premier League. Randomly saw it on TV and I loved it instantly. Favourite players were MVG and Bunting at that point

Do you not think your gimmicks would be more entertaining if they were more believable?

2015 Grand Prix, obviously. I can't remember but I might have been rooting for MVG in that final. But Thorn convinced me otherwise

I don't think about it that much. Don't think of them in terms of gimmicks like "i have to post something like that". I just read a post and reply whatever comes to mind. It's not always a conscious process.

Love is too strong for a person I haven't met. But I like you Bob. You are one of the funniest members around

Were you thelad1985?

Why do you also use the gimmicks on Twitter?

Are you from Scotland or Hungary?

No I wasn't. I found him entertaining though. He was a character.

It's an extension of my forum account so I have to behave similar. Cunts just banned me for a week though ffs!

Scotland.

Will you be taking Emu's advice from earlier and cutting down on the gimmick posting?

Only been watching since 2015,, explains why you don't like wadey, you missed his prime years, 2007 and 2008 especially you would have been a fan, big scorer and still deadly on doubles.
