It Appears There Are Hijacked Freeper Accounts
3/1/15

Posted on 03/01/2015 2:25:18 AM PST by Enlightened1

I found three Freepers (in the last 24 hours that prior to a few days ago (10 days at the most) have not been active in a very long time...... At least a year and a half or more. The other two Freepers have no posts for 7 years and 3 years.

Now prior to that time gap all would have maybe 1 or 2 posts a years several years ago. Yet in the last few days they are posting a lot. I find that very odd?

I think these accounts have been hijacked by the opposition?

For those that are wondering what is an Internet Troll? Trolls, post a deliberately provocative message or messages to a newsgroup or message boards/threads with the intention of causing maximum disruption and argument. This is done primarily by opposition groups.

I'm sure someone could figure out WHO is doing this. We just need to do a trace route on the account to see where it's coming from.

Here are some articles about it for anyone that does not know about this. Watch your 6 Freepers.

The Enlightened1 is such a dingbat that he now has a vanity thread claiming that he has uncovered my and lormand’s and someone else’s accounts as sleeper accounts that we never used until yesterday.

This is the thread where we have already tried to reach that lonely brain cell left in his head. A thread that he refuses to return to by the way, instead this troll wanted to create a goofy conspiracy vanity thread. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3262591/posts?page=73#73

I wonder when the Enlightened1 will discover how to find my 73,000 posts, including pages and pages and pages and pages and pages and pages of them for February, or January, or for any other month.

He might even wonder why there are 6 posts from me to him on the 22nd of February, yet he didn’t see them when he did his mistaken search for my posts. At that point perhaps he will realize that he is looking at the threads that we have hosted, not at our posting history.

Enlightened1 when you search someone’s posting history, you need to search for “comments”, not “articles”.

Now that you refused to correct your attacks on the first thread, and carried the attacks into a second day and a long vanity thread, how are you going to handle your apology?

I wonder if he will even respond, he abandoned his previous thread where he had started with this nonsense.

Dingbat maybe correct also but I would call him a Paulbot for sure. He can make
accusations but he can't find the truth for sure. He'll show back up when he gets
his new bot marching orders.

I've had this problem for quite a while. I swear there must be more than a dozen people using my account.

Ansell

I missed where Enlightened1 pointed you out for an account that was either “hijacked or is a sleeper account” can you bring us the source?

Just sad.

OK,

I dug a little deeper into the link you DID provide and it does seem to be the case.

My bad.

@ansel12... LMAO!
You are the same way. Prior to 2 days ago you have not posted in a 1.5 years. Prior to that maybe one post or so a year. Just like the other name you are defending. LOL!

You are a Troll. Probably the same guy hoping names. How pathetic... LOL!

==============================

Interestingly guess who does have a posting history that looks like someone preparing a sleeper account and then activating it.
He signs up and makes a token post, and then doesn't post for almost a year, and then posts a thread and is off and running.

Wow Im getting old, heres an article from 2002 talking about Jack Thompson as if it was long ago before that. Sigh...

I yearn for the days of ash alerts, flame wars between One Who Knows and The Republican, and when people could leave an open tag that would screw up the entire pages HTML...

Breitbart sites have this done to them and fools will respond to those that post something off subject so the responses now dominate the thread. They have cleaned up the site a bit but the posts are there to stop people from seeing the other related posts about the subject.
