I guess I should come clean. Yes I am TimeTravel_0. I was hoping to put this mystery to rest and stop all this madness you people have gone through to try to prove or disprove my existence. My real name is Samson Rodriguez. It all started as an elaborate hoax that me and my friends thought up. I am only in college and would like to apoligize to all of you who have defended me as a real person. My "time machine" was nothing more then a few junk items we found in a trash dump where we found all our supplies for the hoax. Again I apoligize for all the work you have put into this and thank you again.
Signing off one last time,
John Titor
As you've probably read on that site 'TimeTravel_0'(John Titor) was not the same member that posted the above statement.
In 2001(where the example thread is really from) the TTI allowed the use of the space character (" ") in usernames. I know because I used to have a space in my username there. The system went through an overhaul, and this function was removed. All names with " " were replaced with the underscore, but John's account was also removed. Someone just has to choose the username again.

Excellent post. My guess is either an Asteroid or the shaking of the entire globe as its been in some prophecies. I'm not looking forward to 2012 at all. I think there will be millions of paranoid people out there who will end their lives rather than face something catastrophic
According to Titor not all will die and the planet stays so i guess we will have to wait this out.

Nice work, I remember that post by Titor and him leaving the little tidbit of 'unusual events'. Id say your guess of a major earthquake seems the most likely in relation to the other tidbit of 'Red sea and egyptians', something that is both uncontrollable and something that potentially could bring up land out of the oceans. Admitadely it would have to be pretty massive with a huge thrust of one plate over the other, but possible nevertheless, perhaps poleshift isnt out of the question either, theories iv read have suggested such massive earthquakes resulting, it wouldnt nessecarily be the end of the world either which would still fit.
I guess all we need now is to wait out this year and see if US authorities turn brutal on its populace, and thus either prepare for horrible times or forget about it.
shots: That doesnt proove titor was a hoax, that guy wasnt titor. If your really interested go over to communities.anomalies.net... and onto the time travel forum there and discuss with darby the super mod there, he'l tell you it hasnt been prooven as fake.

So what else would cause "partings of seas" or tsunamis worldwide? A worldwide earthquake. Therefore, I propose, Titor predicted a worldwide earthquake in 2012. It is also possible as a result of this earth change, the geography of the plates may change and lost continents(Atlantis?) may reemerge. In the Red sea story, that is what happens when the sea is parted; land emerges.

The year 2008 was a general date by which time everyone will realize the world they thought they were living in was over. The civil war in the United States will start in 2004. I would describe it as having a Waco type event every month that steadily gets worse. The conflict will consume everyone in the US by 2012 and end in 2015 with a very short WWIII.
The source claimed this info came from the JT website. and was posted on Jan 3, 2005 in the timetravel forum of the link you gave. Topic: It seems like John Titor's validity is almost up
communities.anomalies.net...
As you can see JT claimed the civil war would start in 2004 with Waco type events every month that keep getting worse. We are now into 2005 and I have seen no Waco type events every month of 2004 in the US, have you?
I do have to give the person who created JT as having a very vivid mind set though, however I doubt he ever did any time travel. If he truly was from the past the events he stated would start in 2004 would have happened, they clearly did not, that only leaves on conclusion JT was a big hoax.

John Titor used both 2004 and 2005 as the start of the civil war. He says civil unrest starts to develop during the presidential elections and it worsens in 2005 and then flares up and down for 10 years. Whether Titor's predictions are true or false will be known by the end of 2005.
Titor is commenting on the origin of the civil war from a future perspective. According to his history, the origin could be said to be 2004. Well, that is when the Patriot act II, national ID card and the re-election of Bush took place resulting in a divided America.

Not according to the JT website here again are the exact words (Kindly note there is no mention of 2005 or presidential elections)

That is because you are only looking at only one of Titors postings. Here are the relavant postings:
Real disruptions in world events begin with the destabilization of the West as a result of degrading US foreign policy and consistency. This becomes apparent around 2004 as civil unrest develops near the next presidential election.
I am here for personal reasons. For a few months now, I have bee trying to alert anyone that would listen to the possibility of a civil war in the United States in 2005. Does that seem more likely now? Actually it's quite amazing to see what's happening. I have been trying to get people to pay attention for the last few months but to see it unfold is very interesting. Before I leave, I'll try and post my report.
You are wrong in assuming I have only read that one post I have read several.
If he had been real he could have given specific dates but he avoided answering any of his questions with a direct answer, why is that? So he could cover his butt that is why. I would have to give him an A+ for his imagination that is all.

No, there's not going to be a civil war. Titor is a hoax. A complete hoax. He's been debunked any number of times -- and so has his "device" which has been identified as some fairly mundane military equipment from the late 1960's.
And his story, which is a rework of a Bradbury science fiction novel.
No civil war, though if Bradbury finds him, he can be sued for copyright violation.
