I've known this guy for about 5 months, and I was pretty hurt when I found out that he had been stealing his music. He was probably my closest friend and I talked with him every day. We had plans to collab on a song. I'm sure a lot of you are mad at him just for stealing the songs, but I'm perhaps even more mad. You see, I found out about this whole Petriform thing before anyone else did, as I saw the comment on Equestria Daily of the guy accusing him of stealing. So I went on over to skype and asked him this:

Are you petriform? Lol I'm just curious xD
And he responded:

And no problem for being curious, I can understand it! I just never wanted people noticing about my pony account (I just posted a little Tweet on Twitter and deleted it then) but someone obviously found it out. ^^''
So not only did he steal the songs, but he lied to me and told me that he was Petriform. That's not just stealing but also impersonation in a way.
After 5 months, I thought I knew him, but I guess he was just lying about the whole time.
