What is sockpuppeting ?

[kittensinmydinner1]

Been following a thread for a while. Just seen it's been taken down because OP has been sockpuppeting. Can someone please explain what that means ???

Basically a troll I think.

Hahaha sockpuppeting 😂 some people 🤦🏽‍♀️

Hello!

We usually delete threads when we believe that an OP is posting under two usernames to be disingenuous/to mislead other users.

We're okay when it happens accidentally and usually pop in and clear up if it does!

Many thanks. I've learned something new . I will endeavour to use it with my teens in an attempt to look 'current' ... and no doubt receive an eye roll of despair 🙄
