Title: Pay attention
Post by: Carmel on April 10, 2004, 12:02:00 PM
Hey you all,

Just wanted to give you all a tip.  If you just sit back and pay attention to the posts and their structure...you can more often than not discover who is whom and which Anons are most closely tied to user names.

Just watching their spelling and usage will give away who they really are.  You dont have to be a super hacker in order to figure it out.

Well that's true - but style and language and structure can also be mimicked.

I've read recent threads on this board that I swear appeared to be postings by the same person (pretending to be mulitple posters).

And that's just - I don't know. Is it creative or crazy? Either way, a woman's intuition usually tells her when something isn't right - so paying attention is always important. Good advice, Carmel!

Thanks Leigh, I guess its only really useful if you are attempting to have a conversation with someone who keeps jumping all around and so forth.....

I dont claim that it is fool proof....but its sometimes a little amusing when one is just so darn obvious you know?

Please.  I am far bright enough to hide my identity if I wanted.  It's just a matter of being aware of your own lingo and style.  But then, it's just a matter of being aware of everyone else's as well.  Wouldn't be hard at all to fool the masses.

Just for Carmel, who am I?   :grin:

The only thing you druggies need to spend any of your drug-addled attention span on is the Steps that will be posted on the wall of the Group Room of the new, improved, all-ages, faith-based Straight, Inc. v2.0!  Now that I'm a priest, I've been ordained by God Himself to round up you druggies and get you Straight! Love ya!
