As some of you may know, Олег Мордашов has great trademark emoticon: ¦]

It is a highly exclusive emoticon, however, it’s not my personal invention. There is a person who uses ¦] very often since many, many years and the real originator of the emoticon. My contest: I want you to find out who this person is! The first user to post the name in this thread will win 1 Brownie Point.

Hints: This person is quite well-known to certain group of people and has an own Wikipedia article. If you know who I search for, you will have no doubt that it’s this person. Person is not generichaxor.

You are allowed to post as many times as you like, but not allowed to post million of names hoping to list the person by accident. Trolling only allowed if you are cool (no trolling allowed for 99% of Flamebate users). Contest closes without winner if person not found in four weeks (03/28/2009, 11:59 PM EST).

Have fun! ¦]

Who judges coolness? This sounds like an excuse for you or a collaborator to surprise us with disturbing pictures.

Embedded shock images are always forbidden, even if I would have said that they weren’t. And as for the rule, consider ‘no trolling’ to apply to everyone (because there are no cool posters on Flamebate besides Oleg Mordashov). If I decide to make exceptions, I’ll let you know.

PS: Nice klan forum. Log in to see images!

Another hint: It’s really not that far-fetched. If you find person, you will be 100% sure about it. Obviously this person must have come into contact with computer from time to time.

Certainly yes, but that’s not the emoticon’s origin.
