He has a website of his own, and I've read some of his posts on it, mostly the answers he gave to some people's questions. I have never heard about him till I've watched the anime called Steins;Gate. I've always been interested in time travel and such, and after finishing the anime show I researched the name Jon Titor. There we go, I found out about him. Like, you know, after watching an anime you wouldn't expect it to have a real person, usually. So when I searched Titor's name, he caught my attention instantly. I looked into articles about him, about his first and last posts. Later on I found out that there's a Titor in 1998 and another one who claimed to be John back in 2000. I looked deeper into that, the 1998 Titor is more believable. He sent a fax to Art Bell, who has this radio show called Coast to Coast AM (correct me if I'm wrong, can't remember it well now as I've stopped researching for now). Titor asked for Mr Bell to talk about him on the radio, which he did. There's a video of it on YouTube and it's really long so I only listened to the first 3 minutes. :P He asked for Bell not to include his number if he was going to publish Titor's fax to the public. Bell did announce the fax to the public, not including Titor's number as he asked.
The 2000 Titor, however, I think is another person. I'm not the only one who thinks so. And this is because he might have found out about 1998 Titor, and was intelligent enough to pick up what he said and expanded the story. Some people, from my research, said that what 1998 and 2000 Titors explained about the time machine or time traveling are different. I still have to look further into that. The second Titor, the 2000 one, showed a drawn image of his time machine. And since I am on Reddit, there's a post of the time machine in r/JohnTitor saying that he found Titor's machine. Looks believable enough as there's this video on YouTube which shows "John" using his time machine and it looks like the one in the post on Reddit.
Some people say that the ones behind the John Titor Foundation, the Heber brothers, were the ones who probably have created the website johntitor.com. This was supported with the skills of the Heber's - one was an entertainment engineer and the other a computer expert. Now, what I think about this is that they are, perhaps, are as interested in Titor as much as us. The Foundation was established a couple of years after the johntitor.com website. The Foundation, apparently, wrote a book about John Titor the Time Traveler and was published. And that it's really expensive. I found a forum talking about why the book has to be overpriced, and that leads me back into thinking that the Heber brothers created the johntitor.com website after the faxes that Art Bell received. It all might have planned, as well. Art Bell might have wanted to promote his radio show. The Heber brothers might have picked up the faxes. And whoever the 2000 Titor is wanted to fool the internet. Which, I would say, worked really well.
But I'm still not convinced. There's this thing about world lines. John explained it in his website, pretty sure, but I didn't bother to read. Watching Steins;Gate helped me enough to understand how world lines work. And that's what makes me think that 2000 Titor is not the 1998 one, but another Titor. The 2000 Titor made predictions, most did not occur but some predictions did happen which made some people believe in him. I think the prediction was about this show called XFiles and I'm not really interested in that so I didn't look further into it. Anyway, world lines work like the butterfly effect. Titor predicted that there would be a civil war in America in 2005, and that there would be a nuclear war by 2015. And guess what the year is now! They obviously didn't happen. And this might have been caused by Titor time traveling to another world line - our world line. In his world line, these wars took place, in our one it's bullshit. A joke. Some people laughed about that. But I'm thinking our world line is different to the one Titor came from. From my research a while ago, some people said the same thing. And that Titor said that other Titor's will time travel for different purposes. Which might have been why 1998 and 2000 Titor are different.
I know this isn't finished, I'll post Pt.2 next time I'm bothered to write a post about this. But please do leave a comment about your opinion on Titor! He's interesting enough, usually I'm not convinced by such things but this topic made me research and look deeper into the subject.
