Wonder if that's the DarkShikari of Eve Online...

I wonder what happened to Jason, haven't seen him here or heard from him in ages.

I wonder as well. I did a project with him when I was a teenager and we didn't entirely get along. He was a very talented guy, though, and I wasn't entirely fair to him. I hope he's doing all right.

Even though I didn't know the context of the quote before clicking on the link I knew it had to be about 4chan. It's "fake it till you make it" but towards the negative side.
