There are two stories here.

1) Brown Univ. student wanders off and suicides. During the search, the internet speculates he was the bomber.
2) Random guy at the Boston Marathon is seen in photos wearing a backpack and gets put on the front page of the NY Post.

3) GBS goes into damage control mode and claims it was only reddit doing the internet detectiving

In Russian it's considered cutesy for a young woman to use masculine verbs when talking about herself. It's a recent fad, though.

I guess I should pay more attention to our social media, because I have no idea what you're talking about.

Maybe you should talk to women more. :smug:
I've heard it in real life from ladies from Minsk, Yekaterinburg, Moscow, and Harkiv. Things like 'Вчера я посмотрел(ь) фильм'. It's close to babytalk when they refer to themselves in third person probably mixed with a stereotypical Central Asian accent borrowed from the hit sketch comedy show Nasha Russia (Russian version of Little Britain).

For those who don't know, the original Yume Nikki could be best described as outsider art (and could only be described very loosely with the term "game", really). It only works because it comes from a place of such sincerity -- you get the idea playing it that the creator made it because it was the best way to express his ideas, not to get Internet Famous. Making a clone of it because you liked it and it's popular is missing the point entirely. Making a clone of it that is this low-effort is sad for multiple reasons.

e: Don't play Yume Nikki if you are expecting a game; it is by most possible measurements not a good game. If you're curious there's an LP of it.

copying for popularity has worked for a select few (mostly japanese)

tumblrites and pixiv-goers alike fap endlessly to lol's terrible pixel art and music (it's really, really loving bad but they say it's great) and spend countless hours examining and re-examining it for "themes" and other things ham-fistedly crammed into some lovely facsimile of yume nikki's style of not-symbolism

I lost interest not long after I started making games but for some of these people they haven't grown out of it yet and their mission is to make "the next Yume Nikki... with more gore"

It's almost like sometimes you can dox the wrong person too. Didn't Reddit go on a pretty big witch hunt after the Boston Bombings and get some innocent people in some serious trouble?

Also I hate to be this guy but even if they are KKK members... so what? What does posting dox even accomplish other than you hope someone goes to their house and murders them?

This rule is so easily exploitable. I'm triggered by poor grammar; if you're gonna turn every word into its own exclamatory sentence plz tag that poo poo or my life will become a ruin, TIA. Same with unnecessary apostrophes, whining, bad opinions, imperatives made toward people over whom you have no authority regarding rules they never agreed to, all of it. Tag everything. Because I told you to. Don't tell me it's not valid. :colbert:
