Troll hunting

I havent posted for a long time (various reasons!) but have lurked around. This thread has just about finished me! I dont agree with holding at all if fact I think there is something rather creepy about "his" posts but now I feel a little uncomfortable about GN as a whole, even though I have had some great support and (hopefully) made some good virtual friends.
The thought of someone "doing research" about posters and compiling "evidence" is not pleasant! I think its time to say goodbye GN.

It is a very confusing field, holding and trying to find anything solid in it is like searching for a needle in a haystack while wearing a blindfold. The clearest evidence that you have found something is the pain as the needle stabs your finger., and you can't even be sure that is not from some innocent sewing needle annoyed at being accused of being a hypodermic.

Meanwhile mass murderers have been known to protest their innocence loud and long and tearfully. The hunt makes the hunters suspect everyone, so don't blame them for being cautious about you - you said yourself they ought to be.

In the assumption of your being "with the good guys", enjoy the games threads, and watch out for card sharps. Cheating b*****s get everywhere!

apart from me of course arrogant or what
Dear me, that was tongue in cheek but again you are only looking for negatives.
You all refer to what I have tried to investigate and now I am being described as a weirdo!
At least I tried to see a link with certain posts and identify someone who is really taking the p**s.
Anyway, that's me finished with posting on the Threads, I will continue on the word games where there's no subterfuge and leave you all too it, though I may post on my Diabetes banished Thread if I have any further comments or info to add.
Whilst looking at past threads I noticed that I had posted over ten months ago so I am not quite the newbie that I thought I was.
I also said in my last post that you cant be sure if I am part of what I have discovered.
That was just to show you that you cant be sure of anything on here, and I am accused of intentionally causing confusion.
Well I thought you were already confused in your efforts to identify insincere posters.

Ps the thread was "Getting to know you" but I was not accusing the op of any underhand intentions!

Yes maw I do remember that poster and, just the other day, when a new poster asked if she should take notes on GN members, as an aide-memoire, I advised against it. When I mentioned our previous experience of a poster "keeping notes" others agreed that it could be unwise to do that.
The ex-poster who was banned was mentioned then and I think some unpleasant memories were stirred!

I'm not sure Rachella that you've actually got the point though.

RachellaGransnet yes you did delete a thread I reported within an hour. Another, much more obvious one, was still running last time I looked.

I m more confused than ever by Holdings post ?‍♀️

apart from me of course arrogant or what

Who are you Holding ? Are you now proposing that a regular poster is a troll ...divide and rule eh

Sorry but I find most of your posts quite nasty

I have spent hours looking at Threads and looking up the posters history

Does anybody else remember a member who I think may have been banned after compiling what sounded like a dossier on Gransnetters and who may, or may not have been responsible for a very underhand action?

There must be better ways of spending hours

batty, which creep? I have no idea what is going on!

holdingonto ......haven’t you got anything better to do?
Spreading paranoia, is that what you enjoy?

I suppose since holding seems to have done some research perhaps HQ and holding should work together to get rid of this creep and put better security in place?

This whole subject has become weirder and weirder.....

as they say here , don't go looking for trouble , trouble finds you

I have spent hours looking at Threads and looking up the posters history, and After doing my research : holdingontometeeth, I find it a little unnnerving, that someone is apparently building profiles on posters, allbeit with the best of intentions....I hope.
Or have I misunderstood?

Well, that has me really confused.

I noticed a post by you on another thread, holding, which sounded perspicacious. I was wondering myself about that thread.

It gets very tricky if you are suggesting we have to consider that a t****could be posting "Was that a t****l?", and that we should wonder whether you are fibbing when you agree with us that we were right about the beasties being around, in spite of being so cross earlier with those who questioning your own posts, though.

It is getting late. Time to rest the leetle grey cells.

Tolls should read Trolls

I forgot, that even as though I am a newbie, this problem hasn’t just occurred recently. It will have been going on some time, perhaps unnoticed.

I was always told not to take sweeties off strange men..

Despite the way in being LOCKED! ?

The Sanctum was blocked
So the Inners were shocked
As she blundered there in
With a mouth full of gin
