I guess cos I'm relatively new and don't know most of the regulars very well or have met them outside the forum that the whole sock puppet thing is of no interest - if someone wants to run multiple accounts then cool, if someone thinks I'm actually someone else's sockie then so what? OK so it maybe different for peeps who've been here a long time but to me it's just noise - which is unfortunate because it can be a really funny and entertaining place!!Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostI agree. The general twattery has been higher than usual. Some of you guys should be ashamed, you're almost adults!
I blame the Scottish contingent.
I'm petitioning the mods to create a sockie filter - a new forum view in which all posts which mention sockies get filtered out - including this one

Are you suffering rep envy again? Don't worry Greg the ladies won't mind.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostDear oh dear, we have got this wrong.
The point is to give -ve and sign it in whatever way it will look like MF (bear in mind he's not too bright). And why anyone would give +ve is beyond anyone.

Dear oh dear, we have got this wrong.Originally posted by Zippy View PostI did get one signed the real MF,
No, I wouldn't. Probably.
Actually, I don't often give -ve rep and if I give +ve I almost never sign it.
