He keeps posting long controversial threads, eg the long distance relationship one and now the transexual one and he says he is a journalist and that he is making money from our replies

I am getting to the point where I can't be bothered to respond to any posts by new people /namechangers because they could be him.

Can you please ban his names and or IP address.

Oh and also how on earth would he get paid for it anyway?

Or at least ask him to try harder? Or be a teensy bit amusing?

I would hazzard that he's not a journalist but that it's some kind of bet.

But tbh I think this is getting out of hand and that mn hq needs to do something, because it's getting to the point where all new posters are suspicious IMO, and they're not posting funny threads, some of them (ie the transsexual one) could be genuine, from people who genuinely have been through these experiences. I know someone who has in fact and it has destroyed her life.

I've said this before but I do think it's got to the point where unlimited namechanges should be stopped. No other site allows this, if people need to namechange they could ask mn hq to do so, mn hq know who you are anyway even if you namechange.

i must admit the "bad date" thread in chat is very obviously a troll thread , the bit about the kids throwing food & coke over the granny had me pmsl .
journalist ? really ?? i bet its a couple of teenage kids having a laugh .

DeFluffy · 02/06/2010 13:48

the transexul one is apparently real but 'steve' came on to say it was him as the op, when the op actually is a real mumsnetter.

MNHQ - Could you comment please? Its not as simple as 'report the posts' its getting really sick now.

Defluffy is right - he destroyed that transexual thread, and left the OP with no way of asking for help and advice. Simply reporting him was a complete waste of time.

Hello

Just to say we're still looking into this still - it's a complicated one.
As for how he gets paid, I am flummoxed on that one.

LOL at Try Harder Hully

You may wanna look at my post on wannabe's thread here too.

Thanks
MN Towers

Thank you, appreciated.

If it is the journalist Dani Garivelli from Scotland on Sunday can you please tell them he/she/it is really dull. Cheers
