pretty sure he just couldnt be assed to read the whole thread and posted this to get a rundown
rundown of evidence:
-domain name was registered april 28 2018
-darryl posts pic uploaded to imglite two days after the domain was registered
-a week later the pony research pic thing happens, image also hosted on imglite.
-site is made with generic public free website code
-googling imglite does not show any history of the website, let alone the website itself.
its really too coincidential to be anything other than him replacing the image.
