Like a few days before any news even broke of the story one of their boarders made a thread that titled "my housemate got arrested for hacking? and only had very minor details of why. While that thread was still going on someone on there made this one
hipinion.com • View topic - * Dread Pirate Roberts * Ross Ulbricht * Silk Road *
which I guess was pretty funny because he was still talking about "I wonder what for the cops just said something about Silk Road and bitcoins" in the original thread and due to his location and sparse details of maybe why a few of the boarders put two and two together before he even did but being assholes like a lot of them are didn't even tell him and he didn't look in that thread until someone finally tipped him off lol. Then the original thread spiraled out of control, someone tweeted a news journalist saying one of their boarders was his old roommate (via Craigslist ad had been only for a few months before he got popped but he was still currently his roommate) and that thread vanished shortly afterwards.
You can still find the link in google but the thread is gone.
I guess he thought dude got busted for selling drugs on there like a few people had been lately but was oblivious that dude was the mastermind (and by proxy kinda a drug kingpin) who ran the whole fucking thing lol.
