I doubt the poster is who he says he is. I think he's a scam artist. I
imagine a completely different sad story appears on another ng with the
same P.O. Box, etc.

Exactly my thoughts. Then again I may be a cynic.

He isn't the first nor the last. Personally I think begging for money
online from complete strangers is appalling, especially from people that
can't afford to give in the first place.

If the OP is or isn't who he claims to be is fairly unimportant.

The point is he's a fraud which is pretty important, so the last bit you
typed was a waste of time because you're speculating.

Where do you find this point from? From what "Alex Nemeth" said was found
using the OP's given email address, it seems like the OP might not be a
fraud, given the same message was found in a few places, 2 of which seem
somewhat relevant to the OP's message. (I really have no idea what
alt.support.fluffy might be, but I have an idea of what might be the topics
of alt.child-support and I know a.s.s-p) You might be speculating, like me,
that he (the OP) might be a fraud, but I still think either way, he's going
around begging for money, which it seems he is, whichever way it's looked
at. Either way, I've decided to ignore it, since it seems like the OP has
said whatever he wants and has dropped out of sight?

FYI....alt.support.fluffy is likely, although not certainly, to do
with the 'Meow' people, which is a group of trolls who actively,
specifically gather together in newsgroups to plan and execute
organised trolling of other groups. They put 'meow' into their posts
often and they claim (facetiously, I'm sure) to worship the cat
'Fluffy'. If that's the nature of alt.support.fluffy, which I think
is probable, then posting there would be absolute confirmation that
this individual is a troll.

Of course, if you assume that, and I'd assume you'd have reason to say what
you did if you felt it were basically the idea, then yes, I'll agree with
you, Christine and anyone else. But, like I had said before, and this is
just based only on the given names of the groups mentioned before, I can
only assume that alt.child-support has something to do with child support, I
know alt.support.single-parents has to do with being a single parent and
again, alt.support.fluffy - I have no idea, so I'll take your word for it.
Either way, troll or not, is anyone here really considering helping this guy
out at all? If he is a troll, obviously no one wants to give him money,
but, honestly, if he's legit, would that change anyone and make them feel
the need to paypal him some money?

Nope. I have my own children to look after, not to mention I think it's
extremely crass to beg for money especially when there are other options.

Doing a quick search on Dejanews ( using as the
keyword ) I found he posted this message to 3 groups, different
subject lines, same message.

Alt.support.single-parents
Alt.support.fluffy
alt.child-support

And? What's your point?

There was no point. Simply a query I thought might have been
interesting, based upon someone elses previous post.

If the OP is or isn't who he claims to be is fairly unimportant. The fact
is he's going around begging for money. Maybe he needs to cancel his high
speed Internet, which would save him $25.99 a month, concentrate more on his
childrens' needs, rather than his own wants and live his life for himself
and his children and find something better to do than go around bashing his
apparently useless ex-wife over the Internet.

OP: So, your ex wife is useless. Yay. Get over it. Use your time and
energy on building a relationship with your children and giving them your
excess time, and spare the WWW your pages created with the intent to have
others feel sorry for you. You know what? You picked her (your ex-wife)
and you alone. Your children didn't pick her, neither did your friends,
family or some random person walking in the street. I wouldn't doubt for
one second that you love your children, and the fact that you cannot change
who you married and reproduced with is something maybe you should get over.
Live for the future you can give your children and yourself. Don't live for
the past.
Sad reality is that perhaps dropping out of school until your children are
well enough, and probably old enough to be in school themselves is an idea.
Maybe if you could be a little less selfish about what YOU want and see what
your children need, you'd consider sucking it up and working full time to
live and survive, minus the begging for money via the Internet.
Maybe, just maybe, saving $$ on college tuition by dropping out and
considering finishing school at a later time and date and finding a job
until you can finish school is a dim idea, but you know what? Lots have
done it, are doing it and many in the future will do it. If you think
you're so unfortunate to have children, and twins at that, while you try and
get your own education done, pull your head out of the ground and give it a
shake. Quit being so damn selfish.

This is a scam, I just did a Google search for my name ( thats me ) and
this came up. I did not post this, nor would I ever.

One of the main reasons that adding a bit of whatever on earth it is you're
responding to makes sense.
