Going away for a while and returning under a new i.d has been happening for years, and it?s quite fun when the new name gets gently ?outed?. The EDF has a great history of this, long may it reign.


Even the baddies trying to make a return are quite funny, Steve Taylor being one, and Trolley. And many on here may remember the funny/clinically insane Big Bad Wolf still brings a cold sweat to many, yet somehow the is it, isn?t it is just as fun.


But to have a multiple identity portfolio, and then use it across the forum is bordering on weird/deceptive, specially posting or housekeeping your own threads in each ?ego? is weird weird. Like who?s getting the kick here?


Even shadier is saving one ?ego? for supposedly funny stuff and the other for the more unsavoury political musings is worryingly odd. Just be you out-best-self why not?

Agree broadly with this SB...particularly if one (or is it two?) is a more regular poster in some of the more heated Lounge area threads, where everyone can sometimes get a little frustrated/stressed/emotional at the views of others that we may or may not like.


Of course, it must be said though, I can sometimes see the temptation to manufacture fake support for a potentially controversial position. As one (yes, just one) who has sometimes put forth views counter to the general EDF consensus, it does sometimes happen that the 'opposition' can gang up on opposing views, which occasionally verges on bullying....and while I have never done it myself, I can see that perhaps how having a fake friend to lend some support might be appealing!

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
