It may be me - it probably is - but is anyone else getting paranoid? No, it's not the lateness of the hour; insominia has set it again.



The reason I ask is this: I started to type an e-mail to a member of 44 this evening. It suddenly dawned on me that this person was just a 'reincarnation' of someone else, so I deleted the whole thing and had a re-think. Does anyone else think that this is the way things are going on 44 - that you daren't answer someone, either on board, or off, just in case they are not who they say they are?

PS You and I must be the 'Founder Members' of the spelling and grammar police. She has gone over to Nige's board, and, at the drop of a hat, still brings it up! We have obviously rattled her cage to the nth degree.

Thank you very much - I just knew, from your sensible posts, that you were a kindred spirit



It's good to know that there are some sensible people on here - and, some of us are actually women - which, I might add - sometimes goes "against the grain"



Happy New Year to you and Yours (and thanks again)

Jean - thanks for your good wishes, I will repeat to my American girl alongside me. You must be a great girl because you are a Swede, and my last project before being forcibly retired was in Colchester! However I was stationed near Bury as my last station in the RAF.

Seriously though, you do produce some good posts, and I am sure we all appreciate that.

Happy 2010 to you and yours poppet.

PS - Jeannie, "and, some of us are actually women". Hey, I have no problem with that!

I live with one. "Hey, I change my mind all the time, live with it"!

OK, no problem Yankee!

Blimey..this reminds me of Groucho Marx in Duck Soup when he slapped the president of Sylvania, because he thought he may not accept his apology before he delivered it. Chill out and get those chips off the shoulder and on the plate; or in the bin if it's one of your NY resolutions to loose the gut.

" Does anyone else think that this is the way things are going on 44 - that you daren't answer someone, either on board, or off, just in case they are not who they say they are? "



Jeannie this is certainly not a new phenomenon. In the old MSN forums it was not unusual for same person to have several names and argue with themselves to provoke people.



This has been the case on this forum for some time of multiple log ins. Plus I am sure when you have looked at peoples personal info most do not give real names or contact info. Again from personal experience there is a very good reason for that.

RE msg 11, cyprusishome: That may be so, but it's still cheating, isn't it? And what's worse: many of them take every opportunity to attack people who do not cheat in their profile. And what's the use of "moderating" cheats? I've decided not to answer known "friends" on this board in 2010 anymore. I choose my own board friends.

RE msg 13, deehacker ( = Nigel Watson, banned on Cyprus44): (...) you are quite right some people do cheat they even change their ip address so the can look at sites they have been banned from. (...)

=> That's horrible, Nige! They are banned from your site (I'm so glad I'm not! After all I'm only blocked from connecting to your site, right?) and they still read your site?! Probably via one of the umptieth proxy servers in this world? They might even make screenshots of posts by people with a split personality - playing nice guys and girls on your site or vice versa on Cyprus44? Yeah, one can learn a lot about the mentality and character of some people when you only read Bulletin Boards, can't you, Nige?
