Conspicuous by his absence thus far from this sub-category, "Masonic Hoaxes," is Brad Cofield. This absence is because Brad is still very active and experience has taught me to be cautious with this individual. Thus, I will simply provide a link to and a brief excerpt from a more courageous site, then put on my Admin. hat and lock my own thread.
In the past 13 years since the inception of this site [masonicinfo.com], we've NEVER received as much e-mail (cumulatively) about one individual as we have about Mr. Brad Cofield - and we've certainly gotten lots of messages about many of those we've profiled. Brad has 'poisoned the {online} well' in ways that many thought were impossible. He's single-handedly (using both his own name and several pseudonyms) made many discussion groups unusable for the innocent, particularly women, as he's caused bitterness which has turned into hatred. If you've feel you've been threatened, we would encouraged you to file a report with your local police department: online harassment is taken by many quite seriously. If you've been chased away from a favorite online place because you couldn't tolerate his 'BS', we can only offer our sympathies. Brad's behavior is 'beyond the pale' - but, sadly, it seems there's little that can be done.
