I am starting to get a sense of why sockpuppets must do it. Some kind of cerbral mind game or maybe a bit like going shoplifting in your wife's underwear - it's the thrill of being caught? Already I feel myslef being drawn to create an alterego. Obviously, I'll avoid the 'Hi I'm a newbie contractor' routine and pretending to be a girl to flush out the desperate brigade. Daily Mail style propoganda is so passe and just pasting links from bbc to bump up the posting count too transparent. I'll work on it over the weekend or maybe the beer will of worn off by then and I'll forget I even thought about schizophrenia as a lifestyle choice.Comment
