Why do you go on this website, and talk to people? From what I understand, normally a sociopath doesn't particularly enjoy other people. Although they can be socially adept, their relationships and conversations are simply means to ends. It could be something indirect like just fitting in or direct like getting a job. However, I don't see how this website or those similar to it provide anything other than conversation, you have to enjoy conversation just for the sake of it, as far as I can tell.
So, as an antisocial, what do you get out of something as social as this?
Are you unfamiliar with the Internet and how it's used for communication purposes?
With the Internet, you can connect to people all around the world, without having to deal with social barriers or your own social-ineptness -- especially on a BBS like this one with the culture that it has.

Sociopathy isn't about being socially inept, in fact I bet Walter can be very charming in real life. It just seems to me that there's no other benefit to this website aside from human interaction. I'm wondering why he enjoys it, and what he gets out of it.

Based on the observations I've made about him, which are based off of his demeanor and way of dealing with people...
He seems to have quite the ego and even shows narcissistic characteristics. He seems to have a superiority complex about him and probably takes enjoyment from going back and forth with people on here, with the mindset that he is better.
That kind of "false-winning" mindset. Like when you can't argue with someone who will never accept defeat.
He seems to show those characteristics of "always winning" in his mind.

Maybe, but that seems more narcissistic than sociopathic.

Antisocial means "against society", what does someone who doesn't connect with people get out of an interaction that's purely about connecting with people?
