See if the person is manipulative. Sociopaths understand human weakness and exploit it maximally. Once determined, they can manipulate individuals to do just about anything. Sociopaths prey on weak people and often stay away from equally strong people; they look for people who are sad, insecure, or looking for a meaning in life because they know that these people are soft targets. Check to see if the person is great at getting other people to do what he or she wants. True sociopaths will slowly gain dominance and control over a person without the person realizing it. They like to be in control of every situation and are uncomfortable being around other strong people. See if the person is completely comfortable deceiving people and blatantly telling lies to get what he wants. "PM me . If SI does not deal with these freaks and trolls, would you like to explore a new site?? I have been thinking about this to get rid of damaged asses like the TROLL boy. But I don't want to do it just for that. I want to make money. Nobody cares about those assholes. But they WILL destroy SI. You know it and I know it. I have been In business since before Carter sold Little Liver Pills! I think SI is going downhill unless they change. I could write them an improved TOU. I could save them, actually... But it is probably too late." ...................................................... <I thought you said you were going to leave SI if they didn't give in to your manipulation?> "Nope! You didn't think that!" So now you know what I'm thinking. You should take your act on the road. Your veiled threats to start a competitive alternative to SI will go over big with Ron. Clearly your threat to leave is nothing more than a calculated manipulation tactic. Another classic sign that you're dealing with a Sociopath.
