If not and we suspect sock puppetry, do we report it or what?

What SanityClause said.

She's always so wise and just wonderful. I think she's the best poster on the whole of mumsnet, really.

What's sock puppetry?

Is it where one poster pretends to be more than one person?

SanityClause · 22/06/2016 22:01

Sock puppeting is not allowed, but sometimes people change name during a thread, which is fine, if it's clear that the two names belong to the same poster.

Definitely not allowed. Report!

Yes, report it.

Sock puppeting is not allowed, and should be deleted.

Using more than one name on a thread (especially a long one) isn't necessarilty sock-puppeting tho.
