okay, alwaysthere, here is what we know:

john daley strassini concocted lies about himself in order to secure bank loans. his lies were uncovered, he spent time in jail, and he bore his family financial ruin. upon release from jail, john strassini altered his name to giovanni strassini and posed as a multi-sport buckeye great. this alter ego created fake profiles on several sites and added his fake accomplishments to several sites. moreover, john strassini has masqueraded as an ohio state two-sport all-american among the charlotte-area ohio state alumni, which includes having his picture taken and signing autographs. because of john strassini's numerous questionable practices, he does not have custody of his own son, who lives states away, despite being his child's only living parent.

is that about right?

This is the one and only time I say anything more about this issue. I have read this thread and saw myself being accused of things simply because I said that people on this site were going overboard with their pursuit and assault on this guy Strassini.
I know how and where this thread started- Users from WIKI. The originator, justinags, is a user gnome on WIKI. Several other users have set up accounts to further this onslaught. The users are the ?volunteers? that police WIKI and the info on their site. They saw this guys name all over their site in the last month, and started removing it. It got re-added and they removed it again. Then the actual Strassini, contacted WIKI and the same users that started this thread, and all he did was try to remove his name from the site, they blocked him and his IP address. When they themselves found ?credible? sources, they attacked them to discredit Strassini and keep him from any allies. You can read this on WIKI, even though they edit their stuff, they remove things where they are proven wrong, the gist is still there.
Let me comment on this paragraph only:

So much is true that I was one of the editors on Wikipedia that got suspicious seeing the name "Giovanni Strassini" on many OSU-related pages when no source supported it. So obviously the name was deleted.

Then an IP, traced back to Charlotte, showed up immediately and re-added "Giovanni Strassini" again and again, until he was blocked. He then went crazy on his talk page, accusing people of "name calling" (for calling Strassini a "hoax") and claiming that he was victim of identity theft. Long story short: it was all kinda bizarre.

Still unsure what to take from this Strassini incident, I came to the place best qualified to answer questions on former Ohio State players: this message board.

And thanks to countless post on this thread, it has now been undoubtedly verified that Giovanni Strassini is indeed a hoax and a fraud.

I can only hope Strassini had no chance so far to trick anyone for financial gain. I hope we prevented worse.

Anyways, I am very thankful to this forum.

I sure am glad that alwaysthere developed this obsession with a stranger for years on end so that he could know every minute details about all of the Wikipedia revision history and authors, all of his court cases as well as his varying identity disputes and family.

I am also glad that he lied to us repeatedly about his disinterest and vows to not waste time on this nonsense.

Otherwise we may have mistaken these many Str-personalities, and his scattered defense, as the handiwork of someone troubled.

Kudos for always being there to defend the honor of a guy mysteriously linked to so many achievements that weren't his at all.

I have seen so much BS posted and conjectured here in this thread it is sickening and laughable. For the same crimes you accuse him of, you are guilty as well. Jumping to bad conclusions, wrongful assessments, attempting to add names to him, that for a fact have already been found in a court of law, district court in Charlotte, to NOT be his, yet you have attributed old cases as his, and linked names to him that were proven by him to not belong to him, at his own contest against this, by several banks the aliases were his, and the banks LOST-emphasis added. Then you do the same to me, hahaha.
I know of him, seen his name before, and it was at charity events, hospital wards to help and to other charitable causes. Not for any personal gain, and he has been in the news here for years and IF that were his intent, it would have been exposed long before. But since it has always been for good, no real investigation took place. So be it for thinking people are stupid and not savvy in the tech world, but there was no reason to question him for there was nothing of harm going on. So for all of you that ?convicted? him from reading court cases not in his name, or containing information from the old cases, are wrong. The courts and police here, have closed the cases against him in his favor- FACT!! GO BEYOND YOUR NOSES TO SEE THIS!! His claims of OSU things is wrong. It is over, unless people continue it. The pictures posted and that the poster of the pictures edited, are real. No ?rose bowl? ring can be made or forged, it comes from one manufacturer, and when done after the fact, has to be verified and requested by the school itself, search yourself and ask.
The fact those WIKI users have played you for pawns and like fiddles to do their dirty work for them, SHEEP I call you. They are tech savvy and used you all to get Strassini alienated further. Cudos to WIKI users for accomplishing their goal. I saw one of these users post about the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library being ?shut down? and he researched it and traced it back to Strassini. HAHAHAHA, and you believed that? How I ask? There are more than 20 branches of that library, and every single one of them uses the same server, and has more than 40 PC?s in each branch, and so the same IP address. NO ONE COULD TRACE IT TO A SINGLE PC, get it? So how could he make this claim? He is a user at WIKI, or someone called from one of the branches asking why someone at one of the branches could not get into WIKI. Go think now, and WIKI had an account blocked. And when that account logged in to WIKI, they tagged the IP there. So every last one of the thousands of PC?s at the branches, was blocked at WIKI because of ONE ACCOUNT ON WIKI. Nothing to do with the branches, it was an account, and ONLY WIKI knows how and why that IP address was blocked and it belonged to the library, no sleuth work, it was the only way that could happen. The user at WIKI or employee at a
branch or friend of one, claiming ?victory? for detective work performed, where none was deserved= sound familiar? Lmao!
My purpose here was to see what was being said, and attempt to get a voice of reason and I was attacked and linked, wrongfully so again. I offered to meet in person, a user here and he refused and then made jokes about it. I am in SC, BUT CLOSE TO CHARLOTTE, not him but a realist and more truth oriented than anyone doing the things I have read here. Irresponsible at best, wrongful and harmful for certain, and maybe more depending on where this goes. I never judge, God does that. I have seen many become judge, jury and executioner. Karma will happen, now or later, believe that!!
So post all the garbage you want, be the pawns of users with their own asses to protect, and do their dirty work=WIKI users.
No one here, beyond words, can say with any certainty, they know of harm this guy did, or that what they found on him on the net, is truth and legal OR IN HIS NAME. I know most is BS and lies, and I have researched locally and spoken to the police and detectives, I am a die hard Buckeye fan, and watched them longer than most here, for over 50 years.
I do not like what Strassini did, and would never be a friend, but I can say, he did not do anything bad or harmful with what was set up, this is a FACT and not opinion.
Legally it is in the closed court case, based on the false names not his, and he won. The police report that was closed in his favor. Legal, not BS internet stuff that has been manipulated in Strassini?s case by the users at WIKI, AND YOU HERE AT THIS SITE, to meet their own ends at WIKI and no one elses for any good and nothing except to harm him.
Truth is hard to handle, but I know I have said only the truth, and can back up what I am saying if this goes further than this site. I am not going to reply here anymore, and this site can close my account if they want. I am simply saying WIKI and the few users of WIKI here on this site now, including the author of this thread, justinags, he even changed the name of the thread to harm Strassini more, so on the net it would read worse than originally set up. See it for yourself, you all got played. And you were more than willing because this thread gave you a purpose, and you did it, to harm further and what WIKI wanted.
BTW- to con or defraud someone, there has to be some gain, financially or of value gotten. None here, so there goes those names down the drain as wrongful and harmful. But, WIKI wants you to keep using them like that because that was their intent. Keep on being THEIR SHEEP, I will refer to them as user shepherds at WIKI. They sure are leading all of you. That is far worse than anything that did not happen to you directly, and this is 100% directed at you, for you, and all of you complied so willingly. Lmao!
SO BE IT!!

For living in South Carolina you sure know a lot about the Charlotte library system. And no one in this thread ever actually named the library, they just said they were at a library in Charlotte.
