Should repetitive inane posters be removed?

If a post, which may be posted by someone who may or may not fit the description of a troll, who repeatedly posts identical repetitive posts , which add nothing to the discussion in hand, be removed ? Just putting that out there for discussion.

Is it possible that "subtle hints" have been understood and that the unacceptable language has been moderated? Time will tell.

I don’t think Andy is daunted at all, he is happily posting his thoughts on GN grin

Gonegirl Tue 12-Mar-19 13:59:49

And why shouldn't he?

These remarks are making me a bit angry now. Tbh.

Gonegirl Tue 12-Mar-19 14:00:18

I think this thread should have been taken down long ago.

Live and let live.

Stop talking about other GNrs behind their backs.

Ridiculous post

Gonegirl Tue 12-Mar-19 15:12:54

Why? It's what is being done on this thread isn't it?

Gonegirl Tue 12-Mar-19 15:13:51

Luckily it doesn't seem to be upsetting the poster in question.

maryeliza54 Tue 12-Mar-19 15:15:15

No it’s not what’s being done at all- ridiculous post yet again and I’m talking to your front ie as someone who is posting on this thread.

Gonegirl Tue 12-Mar-19 15:17:12

Oh well. Think what you like. I'd rather my posts were "ridiculous" than just plain nasty. Like some I could mention.

Gonegirl Tue 12-Mar-19 15:20:23

"Thoughts? Hmm..."

Were you addressing that directly to the poster in question Maryeliza? I don't think so.

maryeliza54 Tue 12-Mar-19 15:33:26

Byeee -boring

Gonegirl Tue 12-Mar-19 15:42:12

Cherrytree59 Tue 12-Mar-19 15:53:49

Agree with Gonegirl

Just looked at thread after posting at the start
Talking about another GNer whether upfront or behind their back is not what GN is aboutsad

Anja Tue 12-Mar-19 15:54:40

I’d be tempted to say ‘good riddance’ and answer in kind but one doesn’t like to lower the tone any further.

mcem Tue 12-Mar-19 17:38:30

I am slightly impressed that the "lovely ladies/ dearies" posts seem to have gone and recent posts are marginally more coherent. What's wrong with saying so?
Don't understand how "talking behind the backs of posters" is possible on an open forum (unless pm's are whizzing to and fro!)

Gonegirl Tue 12-Mar-19 17:46:21

Oh you must know what I mean. Discussing posters, and what they have said, on other threads.

Gonegirl Tue 12-Mar-19 17:46:47

hmm

andycameron69 Tue 12-Mar-19 19:54:32

lovely to see you ,love this thread greatly

such fun

varian Tue 19-Mar-19 19:29:57

Another person who really should be banned from GN

Jalima1108 Tue 19-Mar-19 19:47:03

do you mean to say that Boris is on here?
