Gransnet, Facebook and Twitter.

That was meant to be I'm on FB

Everybody.

Everybody knows.

Except the stragglers who are a bit slow on the uptake.

I like a mystery too and I wondered about this one until I was reading some posts on another thread with a definite bias I’ve come across before. I didn’t think troll, just reincarnation. Who knows?

“Lies, and damned lies and statistics” always been around from when it was just word of mouth throughout millennial to today.

The only difference is it happens quicker now.

That’s life - get over it and remain sceptical.

I am on TH and find it quite useful for neighborhood news, my netball groups , friends and family. I keep a close eye on it and don't agree to be friends with anyone I don't know personally. I don't do Twitter because I don't really understand how it works. Been on Gransnet almost since the beginning but post less and less.

I find all this unnecessarily bitchy

I just don't understand it. I can't really follow the clues, as 90% of the politics on here goes right over my head.

I preferred the previous incarnation, not so aggressive and more reasonable. And not such an obvious troll.

Yes....even worse than before.....

Please don't fall into the traps which are being set.

It’s hardly Agatha Christy ? Follow the clues.

Probably, but I'm a sucker for a mystery

What have I missed?

No idea, but my interest is piqued now too.

Me too. Howevr, I think that was the purpose of the innuendo.

Nah, don't worry. Got my big girl pants on.

I wasn’t worried...you go ahead if you feel that’s what you should do.

Maybe I'll just report you anyway then, just to be on the safe side?

Ok....

Would you like to share who you think the troll is? Remembering that calling people trolls gets you deleted from GN?

This only leads to more speculation and perhaps people may wrongly suspected. ??

Mmmmm. Good point. No, I would never divulge. My lips are sealed.

I use FB for groups and some family stuff. Most family stuff is via WhatsApp. I also use Twitter mostly because I find firms respond more quickly to requests or complaints that are put on line.
The main differences between being unkind or spreading misinformation on the internet, whether GN, FB, Twitter et al, and gossiping over the garden fence is that you knew who had given you the misinformation and you knew that you and the listener knew who spread the bad feeling over the fence.
Even on FB, and definitely on T or GN, people hide behind pseudonyms so can be as untruthful or nasty as they like whilst still showing a different face in public.

I used to work with someone who was sacked after telling his mates on FB that he had taken a day off sick so he could go to the races. Don't know if he didn't set his privacy properly or someone at work dobbed him in or what. When he got to work the next day he was called in and told to leave the premises.

I am in a few specialist groups on facebook and I find them to be quite sexist towards women but I find quite a lot f men's comments on facebook sexist and in RL if I am honest
