History at CP
Prior to the creation of RationalWiki, TK had been responsible for blocking many (probably most) of the users of RW from conservapedia. He was also one of the CP sysops who had a sock on RW1 prior to its demise - though he was probably not personally responsible for identifying its existence, which apparently had been revealed on the Special Discussion Group.
Entry in RW2
Before the winding up of RW1 the mysterious "Colin" - who may or may not be in Guantanamo - had apparently told all existing RW1 members that they could be sysops in RW2. As a result of this, following the creation of RW2, TK insisted that this allegedly off-the-cuff remark gave him the right to sysop status because he had had an inactive sock on the previous site - and which he had been partly responsible for bringing down. Not surprisingly his sysop request led to some acrimonious debates both because of his activity on as a sysop on CP and because of the nature of his involvement on RW1.
However, to further his case he had the FBI waterboard the elusive “Collin” and got him to create the infamous “Clean Sheet” directive; which was, incidentally, his last official act on RW. This directive stated that actions prior to the creation of RW2 could not be held against a user.
Notwithstanding all TK’s demands, accusations, complaints and machinations he was unable to get sysop at that time and eventually he took away his ball and went back to CP.
Return to RW2
He made some subsequent sock forays into RW, and in one instance seems to have obtained access to the cabal, making him, at the time, the only person to have membership of that organization and “The Special Discussion Group” simultaneously. More recently he visited RW again under the now-outed sock Night Train where he once more attempted to gain allies for a hypothetical attack on CP. However the sock’s activities, attitudes and obsessions soon caused people to guess the puppet master’s identity.
Revenge
Foiled yet again in his attempt to gain some power in RationalWiki, he used data obtained from his time in the cabal (or possibly Cabal 2.0) to create the website Rationalwiki.info both as revenge and as an attempt to coerce some members in RW to cut him some slack. In this he was unsuccessful and the website was greeted with disinterest and derision.
Following all this, and for apparently other reasons, he was desysoped from CP. In revenge for this he temporarily opened up their Special Discussion Group for general viewing, although this only lasted a short time before alleged legal threats from Andrew Schlafly and his FBI agents forced him to lock it down again.
Return again to RW2 and sysop bid
Having nowhere else to go, he returned to RW where he continued his campaign to be made a sysop, this time by attempting to re-write the rules so that they would eventually be more favourable to his sysop bid.
During this time he continued his battle with the old guard Human SusanG Kels AmesG while trying to seduce younger and prettier members on the site.
Final (?) ban
Following a high profile and somewhat chaotic voting process he was eventually banned from the site. His ban length was then changed various times either following sekrit appeals, or for esoteric numerical reasons. It is not known if he has an active sock on the site, but the lack of any obviously poisonous posts suggests that this is not the case.
