I was labelled "The Troll" during my first two years here in an attempt to get me banned (which temporarily happened a couple of times) simply because I was calling certain people out on certain things that warranted challenging. And that label and the whole manipulative situation was pure BS...as time has clearly shown.
No one around here needs to "absolutely prove" a damn thing...to you, me, or anyone else. It's a freakin' forum - not a courtroom or country club.
And yeah, I'm a little sensitive on this issue.
So you guys should just back off and give her some air. No one needs protecting around here.

Smack,
I'm not sure I fully agree. I do agree that ganging up and putting a beat down should not be tolerated. However, identifying what could be a troll is fair game in my opinion. That may even be part of the entertainment factor, which is ultimately all a forum is.
This poster clearly dropped an accidental fake reply with their own ID and then deleted it. Pointing out the curiosity before the gullible start packing their bags for a trip around the world with this woman, seems legit to me.
Th devil is in how it's done, I suppose.
