I am uncertain whether or not my troll and festers one are one and the same person. I tend to think not.
However, I have always had a very soft spot for this forum because not least coming up to seven years ago it changed my entire life. That was when I read that the golf lease was going to anyone interested. I followed it up, got it and never regretted it. Not only did I first read about it here. Lots and lots of messages of support came in and several members took to the streets pushing leaflets through letterboxes. I never asked anyone. It just appeared to be a forum uprising.
Having said that, though, I don't post much nowadays. Mainly because whenever I do this troll pops up. Not on the forum of course. No it's emails or Facebook or you name it. Quote this week from the troll "I see you have made an unwelcome return to the forum boring everybody etc etc"
I ignore him/her. But it does irritate me that I have to refrain from giving him a mouthful. But I know that would please him/her, getting a response. So I don't. But I stop posting.
Is this what he/she wants? Has he/she got a vendetta against the forum. The more members he can stop posting, the more likely the forum will go into decline?
Strikes me that is possible. The troll obviously reads the forum, even the small print. But is he a member who posts himself? Or, is he one of the small band of ex-members who have, to put it bluntly, been thrown off the forum? If I was a detective I would be looking at these people with a close eye.
Anyway as far as I am concerned the troll has won. I have had enough of his childish putting his tonge out at me. I have better things to do and, I,m sorry to all my friends in the forum. I will still read you, but u won't be hearing from me
