Thanks! Feel free to ping me or hellinahandcart or netmilsmom (and several others are interested, too) if you see a poster who:

-Is brand new that day.
-Posts only on one thread.
-Uses mostly lowercase, even for the personal pronoun "I".
-Uses a lot of run-on sentences, coupled with really lousy grammar and few paragraph breaks.
-CLAIMS TO PERSONALLY KNOW SOMEONE IN THE NEWS STORY THAT YOUR THREAD IS COMMENTING ON.
-Uses the word "judgemental" (spelled that way, instead of the newer, correct spelling of "judgmental") and often calls a freeper "judgemental."
-Makes the "point" that if one is critical or expresses outrage at something, that that "is not very Christian, is it?"
-Has a posting name which is letters and numbers combined, such as "bbaby091"; or has a posting name that combines caps and lowercase letters randomly, such as "SweeTY2004".

I'm not saying that any one of the above, BY ITSELF, means that the poster in question IS the troll we call "the obligatory insider".


Speaking for myself, I have no authority to do anything about the troll, but I am still interested, and am hoping that someone who DOES have authority will find out what's going on.

I'd like to add one common phrase that I've noticed...

"since none of you were there"

or"...none of you know ANY details on this case..."

(and other variations of the same comment"

It will be my pleasure to do so. Trolls take up too much bandwidth.
