Paul Truong is The Fake Sam Sloan
The big mystery in chess over the past year and especially over the
just completed election period has been the identity of the Fake Sam
Sloan. The Fake Sam Sloan has been flooding the chess newsgroups and
especially rec.games.chess.politics with so many postings that it was
sometimes difficult for anyone to discuss anything else. There were
times when the Fake Sam Sloan would post 20 or 30 articles in a batch,
covering all of the active discussion topics so that is became
difficult to find the real discussions that were taking place.
Eventually, every regular viewer of the groups came to realize that
there was a Fake Sam Sloan posting and that there were certain
telltale signs to make it possible to distinguish between the Real Sam
Sloan and the Fake. For example, postings by the Real Sam Sloan were
usually long and literate. Postings by the Fake Sam Sloan were usually
short and obscene, often only one line long.
One problem was that there were imitators. At one point there seemed
to be four Fake Sam Sloans posting, each with a different writing and
posting style, so this made it even more difficult to distinguish the
Real Sam Sloan from the Fakes.
However, the other Fake Sam Sloans would usually lose interest and
quit after a short while. The Real Fake Sam Sloan continued
persistently for more than a solid year with no breaks, whereas the
Fake Fake Sam Sloans would quit after a week or two.
A break came when the Fake Sam Sloan abruptly stopped posting on July
4, 2006, a day when the real live Sam Sloan was in Philadelphia
handing out campaign literature to the voters and therefore could not
possibly be posting on the Internet. Then, on July 21, 2006, just
after the votes had finished being counted and it had been determined
that Sam Sloan had been elected, ChessPromotion, previously identified
as Paul Truong, started a barrage of postings attacking Sam Sloan,
often posting as many as 25 times in one day to the USCF Forums.
Although the style of writing and other things were different, one
similarity was the habit of filling up all the active discussion
topics with the same repetitions messages so that no other subject
could be discussed. Only the Fake Sam Sloan had done that and when
Paul Truong started doing the same thing, it suddenly became apparent
that Paul Truong was the Fake Sam Sloan.
That was not the only clue. Almost from the beginning, ever since July
17, 2005, Stan Booz and Neil Brennen had both been saying that Paul
Truong was the Fake Sam Sloan. However, since Booz and Brennen were
themselves suspected of being the Fake Sam Sloan, their postings were
discounted.
The first Fake Sam Sloan posting was on June 25, 2005 as
[email protected] from NNTP-Posting-Host: 66.2.156.67 .
That was just as the real live Sam Sloan was flying to Chicago to play
the Famous Grudge Match against Bill Brock. That Fake Sam Sloan
clearly knew that the Real Sam Sloan would be flying to Chicago and
would not be on the Internet at that point in time. That Fake Sam
Sloan seemed to be Ray Gordon. He posted 16 times from that address
and quit only three days later on June 28. He last posted from
NNTP-Posting-Host: 66.2.156.242 .
Previously, somebody was posting from [email protected]
but as Ray Gordon, who wrote on June 18, 2005 from NNTP-Posting-Host:
4.237.38.175 : "What do you expect from scumbags like Booz and his
chief bull dyke inelle?"
This is the form of postings by the Fake Sam Sloan to the present. A
Google search of the word bulldyke (one word) will show that this word
has been used 41 times, always by the Fake Sam Sloan and always in
reference to Beatriz inello. Bull dyke (two words) had been used 73
times, always in reference to Beatriz inello.
Because there were nine postings from as whocares @
registerednurses.com and signed Ray Gordon from June 18 to June 24,
2005, but after that postings from as [email protected]
were signed Sam Sloan, this led everyone to conclude that the Fake
Sam Sloan was Ray Gordon. However, the Real Ray Gordon denied that
this was him, and it now seems obvious that that was a Fake Ray
Gordon. There were many other postings by a Fake Ray Gordon later on
and the Real Ray Gordon actually filed suit in federal court in the
Eastern District of Pennsylvania against Google about this. He lost
the case and the court's decision against him has become part of his
signature.
Previously, there were 22 unsigned posting from that same email
address. Most of them attacked inello as a Bull Dyke, but many of
them also attacked Goichberg, Channing and Hanke as well. One said:
"beatchess, goichberg, hanke, ES are all scumbags. Who gives a fuck
about them?"
The next Fake Sam Sloan first posted on June 28, 2005 from
[email protected] and NNTP-Posting-Host: 66.2.156.214 and last
posted on December 17, 2005 from that address. He thereafter
immediately shifted over the [email protected] and started posting
from there. It was clearly the same fake, as the writing style and
content was the same.
On July 18, 2005, there was a posting from and NNTP-Posting-Host:
4.237.41.219 but signed StanB which said: "Sam, you're a scumbag. Do
you like 12 year old girls?"
This seemed to be something that the real Stan Booz would write,
leading many to conclude that Stan Booz was the Fake Sam Sloan.
Just six minutes later there was a posting from the same email address
but from NNTP-Posting-Host: 4.237.38.188 which said:" What about a
bulldyke like inello? Who does she have to play with?"
The last posting from sloan @ journalist .com was on January 11, 2006
and NNTP-Posting-Host: 64.12.116.69
The next Fake Sam Sloan seems to have been a different person. This
Fake Sam Sloan never attacked inello but attacked other people
instead, posting at [email protected] and NNTP-Posting-Host:
152.163.100.69 from only January 4 to January 11, 2006.
There have been several other Fake Sam Sloans, but they do not show
the characteristics of the main one, who most often calls inello a
bulldyke. For example there was [email protected] (note the ii
in ishiipress) who only posted a few times.
The most recent Fake Sam Sloan is [email protected] This one first
posted on ch 17, 2006 from NNTP-Posting-Host: 205.188.117.73 and
last posted on July 4, 2006 from NNTP-Posting-Host: 152.163.100.67 .
Here is that last posting:
"I left you alone for a few weeks and now you want to go crazy? Up
yours scumbag! You're history. Run asshole! I hate all the fucking
bull dykes in the USCF. They can all gag on my dick.
"Sam Sloan"
The latest Fake Sam Sloan had learned to delete his postings shortly
after they appeared. During the election period he would often post 20
or 30 per day. However, those that survive in some format were those
to which there was a response. Most regulars learned to just not
respond so that they would go away.
What is the proof that the main Fake Sam Sloan was all this time Paul
Truong?
In 2004, Paul Truong called me to inform me that Beatriz inello was
a lesbian. I told him that I did not believe it, as she had been
ried to a prominent New York chess master. Truong replied that this
was just a green card riage.
A consistent theme throughout these Fake Sam Sloan postings is that
Beatriz inello is a bulldyke. Most people have no care nor concern
about the private life of a chess player or anybody else for that
matter. Obviously the Fake Sam Sloan does.
The Fake Sam Sloan consistently has certain people that he attacks.
Most notable are Stan Booz and Neil Brennen. He also attacks Ray
Gordon and Tim Hanke.
So, one must look for someone who dislikes Sam Sloan, Beatriz
inello, Stan Booz, Neil Brennen, Ray Gordon and Tim Hanke.
Paul Truong is known to dislike all those people. There are few people
who dislike all of those people, especially since most people who like
Sam Sloan dislike Beatriz inello and most people who like Beatriz
inello dislike Sam Sloan.
There is the fact that the Fake Sam Sloan and the Real Paul Truong
often post as many as 25 times per day. Not many people have time for
that. Truong says that he is retired and apparently has lots of spare
time on his hands.
Truong has a long history of creating fake personalities. For example,
it is proven that he was "Bob Bennett" although he still denies this.
Paul Truong now posts as ChessPromotion to the USCF Forums and as
Chessketing to the Yahoo groups and never signs his real name.
Two of the priy targets of attack by the Fake Sam Sloan have stated
from the beginning that Paul Truong was the Fake Sam Sloan.
On July 17, 2005, Stan Booz wrote: "I don't; I think its your good
buddy PT."

On July 17, 2005, Neil Brennen wrote (obviously referring to Paul
Truong):

"Doesn't a well-known female GM (recently praised in a press release
by an alleged ?co-worker as one of the three top GMs in the world) run
a chess school near Flushing? Didn't the male half of Trollgar like to
post under assumed names?"
Under the heading Who am I? In a posting that was soon thereafter
deleted, the Fake Sam Sloan provided a list of 11 persons who could
possibly be himself.
As chess master Bruce Leverett noted, the Fake Sam Sloan would have to
be a person whose name was not on the list and who has a history of
deleting his own postings.
http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.chess.politics/msg/16ab72bf6e8db6d0
Paul Truong fits both criteria.
Thus, it is proven that Paul Truong is the Fake Sam Sloan. All
evidence points to Truong. No evidence points in any other direction.
Truong had the knowledge, the resources, the motivation and the
capability to perpetuate this hoax. Being retired he has a lot of time
on his hands and the time and the resources to post as many as 25 of
these fake messages per day.
When all other possibilities have been excluded, the remaining one,
however improbable, must be the truth.

I did not put that particular allegation in the complaint, that a
certain board member knew about, approved of and perhaps even paid for
the obscene postings by the Fake Sam Sloan because I cannot prove
that.
I confined my complaint to things I can prove. I left out things that
I possibly cannot prove. Fortunately, there are more enough things in
the complaint that I can prove to give me a solid case.
You probably think that there are allegations in my complaint that I
cannot prove. You are wrong. I challenge you to find anything in my
complaint that I cannot prove.

Do you have reason to believe this is true, or evidence to support it?
What about "knew or should have known?"

[quote="mnibb"]So perhaps the USCF is liable for allowing the speech
prior to the election to be loosened, knowingly supplying the FSS
material to post on other web sites. mmmm we better start on that
report. Anybody know how we can get access to those communications?
Brian L, would you know anybody who could get this information to the
NYT and in legal authorities hands?
Or would that be a good idea?[/quote]
I personally believe that one of the board members when I was on the
board actually knew exactly who the Fake Sam Sloan was, spoke to him
about it and encouraged him in his activities possibly even paying him
some money for this. That same board member posted to this forum that
he was "amused" by the postings of the Fake Sam Sloan. Furthermore,
that same board member shot down all of my requests and demands that
an investigation be conducted to find out who the Fake Sam Sloan is.
I am sure that all of you know who that board member was. How do you
feel that this board member did not create some liability for the
entire organization when he was supported by the votes of the majority
of the board?
