...do you write on the thread, tell MN, ignore it?
A post on a very sad (if true) situation didn't sound quite genuine to me (from a new poster). I googled a few phrases and the post had been lifted from a general "what might happen if you are in X situation" website. The poster had changed the wording so where it said "you might be given Y treatment" it now says "I have been given Y treatment" etc so it now sounded as if "what might happen" had happened to her. Sounds extremely sus to me but I suppose it's possible that there might be a genuine reason for the cut and paste e.g. poor English or lack of understanding about what is happening(?)
Do I ignore it and let a lot of people spend a lot of time with advice and sympathy for someone who is probably not genuine? or do you post and potentially drive away someone who is already in a v. bad way and may have genuine reasons for the cut and paste job?
I've read the MN troll policy which seems to be saying that if I report it MN will let if be as they rely on posters to police the boards
I haven't posted here for long enough to know what is "done" so would appreciate any guidance.
