Well, thanks for the vote of confidence 👳Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostWell (s)he sounds OK, although I notice Malcolm Buggeridge was banned on 13th Aug, and Plantswoman first posted on 15th, i.e. the next working day.
But although understandably we get paranoid about sockies, we're probably discussing a perfectly genuine new poster!

Could be. My first thought was yet another incarnation of Gittins Gal, The Janner Miss Tanner etc (was that Wuzel? I forget).

You need to be more specific, that description covers a great many on here (including my humble self when the occasion allows). Come to think of it, if "obnoxious gimps" are to be banned there'll be hardly any feckers left. Where's the fun in that?Originally posted by fullyautomatix View Post+1
I would prefer that obnoxious gimp to be perma banned, if the Mods can be arsed about it.
