Posted by relik I've no problem with Bill, what-so-ever. I do agree that publicly exposing locations is a poor choice on his part, but other than that, i think he's a decent guy. Perhaps he can even be educated to the point of changing his mind on this topic. I'm in the process of throwing together a mini-meet, which i plan to let him attend, to at least give him a chance. Don't worry. I won't show him your super secret spots.

Is he paying you to attend? He's offered to fly to Korea before and pay me to show him around. His utter desperation is the most annoying (and from a distance the most hilarious) thing about him.

^^^ I gave that a "like" for the same reasons. But not Korea, just Detroit- and I ain't even livin' in Detroit. For the record, I did get him up to $350 AND all meals/drink/hotel fees.

There was someone in the event that said, "We dont hate Bill, but we all agree he needs help.." I think if you think about it, that really is it. This guy has offered $8,500.00 to attend an event... Proof: Now it is only a matter of time until some low-life accepts this and screws a kid out of money that he DOES NOT HAVE & should not be offering what equates to his life savings to an event. If you think the community is being hard on it then think of it like this... Would you want your grandmother to spend her savings to have a chance to appear on Jeopardy? Now keep in mind he has ALREADY said he will post the places we show him online for others to enter and you get a toxic potion. He was just not meant to be part of this group. It is sad but true.

If Bill got the help he needs, he might be a nice guy. But he refuses help. I think that speaks for itself.

He has offered me money multiple times, but i refuse to accept. Giving him the joy of something he's been begging to do for years is payment enough.

Bilph should stick to some other hobby that doesnt involve socializing, trust, secrecy, and reputation.
If you want to protect the locations you love to explore, don't talk about them online in public! If you want to make exploring friends, send people private messages! Meet up in real life! Get off the internet! Don't try to have a UER e-penis! You won't impress anyone! This especially means you, Minneapolis MN newbies! |

Anyone who wants to know who Bill Finan is, just friend him on Facebook and read his posts and conversations with people. But he didn't seem normal to me. And it seems like this thread should be locked by now.

I just don't know why everyone is surprised by this. This was his plan from the beginning.

For those of us not acquainted with Bill Finan, can someone explain all the hubbub? Why the hate?

Because the event already came and went, almost. The deadline for blocking the poor, sorry sap shifted from April 1st to midnight tonight. I would imagine that this is because turnout for the event was 1000x higher than expected. (and it was) On Facebook, the event is called 'National BLOCK Bill Finan Day'. I'm not going to post a link to it, because I ain't going to advertise an event I didn't create. I do agree with blocking the guy though. He's unusually bad news, and I have a strong dislike for people with his kind of hell.
addendum: Turns out that the 'National BLOCK Bill Finan Day' caused Bill to delete 338 of his friends. Talk about awkward:

bullying and mob mentality. if you have a problem with someone, don't make a big spectacle out of it you sociopath. I don't care if he's an incredibly annoying and abrasive weirdo, this is ganging-up schoolyard shit from people who should know better.

And yet, the rejection of bullying is the entire point of this. The event was based upon the idea of trying to tell Bill that he needs to get serious mental help, not Facebook crap. And he still won't listen, nevermind admit anything is wrong. I don't have anything against him personally, and I would never be the one to create an event like the one mentioned, but he acts as though his entire purpose on Facebook is to drag other people down and submit himself to punishment wherever and whenever possible. It's an odd form of masochism.

He's admitted plenty of times to having mental disorders, but yes, he refuses to seek help for them. I don't necessarily agree with him seeking help, as i feel as if everyone has control (for the most part) over their own body and mind, but i do wish he would at least take a bit of advice from people whom are genuinely trying to help him.
