    Yup, I tangled with Rotoguys several times. He's just not worth the effort anymore, he appears, annoys, has a week off then builds up a profile of 30/40 posts with a few 'thanks' chucked in to make himself look credible then reappears here with his fireworks. Hopefully PiP will see the downfall of his internet connection.....

    Yes totally agree with you - but a while since we've had a TROLL?

    He got banned and booted last week.
    He misses us !

    I wish he'd come clean and explain why? Or perhaps he is a she? I just can't understand why he has a name, say "Len", and, using that name he will talk about benefits he received, or was meant to receive and didn't get.

    Then, still using the same username, he'll say on another thread, that he's never claimed benefits in his life, and berate those that do! It just leaves me puzzled. It's like me saying on one thread that DH has Alzheimers, which he does, and then saying on another one that he's been asked to join the Eggheads team, cos he has such a fantastic memory!

    Have a nice weekend everyone. :)

    Yeah, I guess we all wonder why he does this. Alas he is as regular as clockwork and as predictable as day and night but he doesn't seem to understand how he's identified so easily. Let's hope that PiP kicks him off DLA and puts him into the JSA queue and this keeps him too busy to have a pop at the people that really do deserve the help here.

    Yes but it's a bit of fun providing we don't waste too much energy on him whatever his alias. BUT also that the genuine new folks aren't put off using this forum. May be those that do need the help?

    Some of us may feel like 'you know what' but between us we must keep exposing these idiots :j

    Andy's different nym's, I stopped recording them when he was dafyguy on the 1st aug 2011, before, amongst others that he used:

    Wow you've always been a mine of information and it has helped me a lot - THANK YOU :beer:

    And now proving you're a further mine of information included TROLL spotting :beer::beer:
