Quote bren2k="bren2k"Weird isn't it? I don't see the match report thread for any other team hijacked to belittle and condemn the winning team - but it seems that's what happened in this case. Although you're right - it's a false positive when half of the bull$h1t posts are made by the same person under different user names.
This site is indeed in decline - I am beginning to understand why the fans of some clubs decided to make their own.'"
Indeed, yet both you and I agree that to be the wrong answer. I understand it but all it does as you yourself have stated is create virtual echo chambers or gettos where no opposition exists to the perceived opinion of the supporters of that particular club and that is not good for the wider game.
The Cas forum or nut job forum as we call it is 90% harmless but 10% of it is vindictive and utterly untrue yet it goes virtually unchallenged. It does so because it's what some wish to hear whilst those who know better prefer not to challenge for fear of becoming pariahs.
These forums for all their faults offer alternative opinions even if some are clearly bonkers, that is whats being lost.
I can just about take the ludicrous half truth and bitter claptrap posted on here, this forum has always had that. But this multiple identity crap led by arch sad case and attention seeker the faux frog that is what's really ruining it. It's totally unfair and morally despicable IMHO to post in support of yourself and your agenda without other people knowing for sure if that poster is who they say they are or whether your just another stooge poster. It's the verbal equivalent of the bloke who waits for someone else to throw the first punch then puts a snide kick to the head of the victim as falls to the floor - utterly cowardly.
Arguing your case on here is part of the fun, arguing with multiple incarnations of the same person is both tedious and stinks of snide dishonesty.
Finally the ludicrous assertion by the mods that these multiple log ons don't exist is frankly insulting our intelligences. Apart from it being obvious to everybody but them I also know for a FACT that technically its a piece of cake to do. Any IT expert will tell you that an IP address means nothing if the poster has a basic grasp of the technology, proxy servers, non static IP's, multiple location devices, all just off the top of my head.
I'm not sure tbh what the site can actually do to stop it but pretending it isn't happening is most certainly not the answer.
