I am aware that you can't divulge the means by which you determine whether or not a poster is genuine, predominantly because if you make that common knowledge then posters will know how to avoid being detected in the future.
but jess (long ongoing eleven weeks abortion threads) threads have now been deleted for being a troll, and I was wondering if, given it's the site users who usually report these things, we could perhaps have a bit more by way of explanation?
e.g. when sassysusan was banned, mn hq confirmed that she had previously posted as washwithcare, and users were able to identify.
There has been some speculation that jess was dizzymare, and I wondered whether this was the case?
Also, these threads have been ongoing for over a month now. How is it that it takes quite this long to determine that someone isn't actually all they seem?
