It's not really anyone specific, and it's mainly older ones but just following on from the trolls thread in GS, I don't understand why anyone would wish this horror on themselves? Surely, they must be ill?
A girl pretended to have a son with a kidney problem who didn't, another pretended to be in a car crash, another pretended her baby had a low heartbeat with no movement... these are just in the last week.
I know it's really hard, especially if it is something that hits close to home
Just so you know, only one out of those three have been confirmed. The other two at the moment are speculation (although we are investigating).
My only advice is 'Don't feed the trolls'. Making threads in public forums is giving them what they want. Cut out the attention they get and they'll move on.
Should we just pm you Stircrazy? Or pm one of the other mods? Newer people on the board might not know who to pm. I was actually looking for a button last night to report a post. It looked very suspiscious to me but I didn't know what to do about reporting it so I left it for a while and watched. It actually disappeared, so I assume it was taken off.
But I was wondering if there would be some merit in having a link/button on each thread to "report to moderator" something like the quote or thanks button. That way anyone can report anything suspiscious, even if they don't know who the moderators are.
