That seems to be one of his problems...
He somehow thinks that the way he acts is perfectly normal, and his petty, egotistical, self aggrandizing, statements are fully justified and legitimate.

(as he believes his paranoia is also justified and legitimate)
(of course, after all this, there very well might be people out to get him soon....
but maybe his "big mafia" friends can save him.)

Once I saw their cards I got really suspicious and looked them up on ptr and saw that they play together quite a bit and turned them into stars. Stars ended up giving me my money back that I lost in the hand and I emailed them back telling them I deserved the whole pot ~1k. After many emails they then game me the pot up until what I had invested which was triple their original amount. I told them that this was ridiculous and if I wasn't cheated I would have continued with the hand and won the entire pot. They confiscated many times the amount of money I was asking for and they wouldn't have caught them without my help. After about a dozen emails they finally coughed up the entire pot. I know this is a much smaller scale and different situation but maybe it could help.

Cliffs: I catch cheaters stars confiscates a ton of money from them and was stingy giving me the money from the pot I was cheated out of.
I don't agree with your assertion that you should've won the whole pot.

Reading back 5 pages and I'm still confused. What do gangs have to do with this?

Do you not think that the funds they were using were possibly not their original deposits and that they were using funds already scammed/cheated from other players who stars will also reimburse. I have had numerous amounts of money given to me by stars when I have been involved in games where someone has been found cheating. Stars investigate and then give money confiscated back to all people cheated not just the one who reports it. So idk where you expect the extra $$ you are asking for to come from.

The extra money (if he deserves any) should come from stars. It's their job to keep the games fair.
Whether or not QQ deserves the whole pot is debatable.

If you don't mind me asking, why doesn't the populice stand up to these people? I was in Sweden a couple of years ago, and couldn't believe how many Muslims were on the streets. They were out aggressively protesting something in Stockholm, and everyone just let them basically run the town.

It's like you are so tolerant and peaceful that you have let in a whole group of people who want to take away those very same things from you. I just don't get it...

If you'd read the entirety of my posts ITT & how information has developed you'll see I'm advocating for the same exact thing you recommend. At this point I would be thinking the authorities will take some interest in the matter
I was a fan of SOA at first, but it got quite repetitive and boring so I gave up watching it.

I read through every post in the thread, I am not saying you are a ****** or anything like that but I just found the comment you made in the one I quoted completely shocking "f that give me liberty or give me death" and then the bit about them asking rival gangs for protection also, I thought it was a joke until I read your messages and found out you were seriously suggesting it as an option.

I took for your messages (apologies if I got this wrong) that the Swedish players should be going to the authorities. There is no way they should, if the links to this MC are true then they would be putting their lives at risk.

International players in this community that are good at investigating and compiling evidence should do it for them, even if they are from the US I would suggest they remain anonymous too just incase the MC has a further reach than just Sweden.
