I've thought of countless situations John could be in, hospitol, too much hw, moving to another place, working in a job, starting a new project, kidnapped by somalian pirates, sent to Narnia.. and in all those situations, he has access to a Computer(any decent somalian pirateship has a Macbook these days..). The only conclusion here is that John realized he needed the money to pay for his college tuition, also realized that no one has any real info about him besides a fake facebook profile, and got the Ok from Theymos to go ahead and do the scam.
Think about it, John's only handling 1,000 Bitcoins, thats less than 800k in real life, plus he has staff status. 800k is a pretty small amount compared to say 10,000 bitcoins. He probably thinks that 1k Bitcoins is the ideal amount he should scam, since he thinks its too "little" for the authorities to charge him for or some shit..He's a college kid for christ sakes.
Overall Message: John k=scammer, Theymos=scammer and liar, Leave Bitcointalk.org, find/make another forums.
Well, that's an awfully large accusation. I bet you have no proof either...

Titles really don't matter do they..You say I have no proof, You're right in a sense, I'm giving you possibilities. What are you giving? Defending someone who made a thread that "everything is going ok", then not hearing from them for months on end, and on top of that, they have no real verification either. You're one gullible bastard, or another one of Theymos pawns.
It's so funny that you stand up for a guy who hasn't bothered to even log on and give an explanation to anything for months on end, oh did I mention he has 1,000 Bitcoins in his possession? Seems to me like you've forgotten that.
