Brothel thread was a fake

[Narnia]

I'm pleased that The Admin has discovered this to be a fake thread. Would love to know how it's done and if LM is banned. What do those of you who considered Baltic prostitutes, Russian mafia, condoms in the garden and BMW's creeping along the street at midnight to be believable, have to say now? Some of you were quite insulting to those who were somewhat sceptical!

[SimonM]

I think very few people were actually fooled.....there's such a thing as giving people enough rope to hang themselves. In any case I'd not dream of criticising anyone who took the original poster at face value. I'm glad some people are more trusting than cynical.

wot Simon said

[Horsebox]

Haha! It was an entertaining thread especially the visual image of a poor old lewishamman peeking through his curtains and the Russian mafia types in the street.

In the interests of transparency/freedom of information etc etc I would

prefer to see such threads locked rather than completely deleted.

Admin, why is it that such threads are deleted rather than being preserved as part of the forum's history?

Haven't you ever heard of the book '1984'? ::o

[Narnia]

I take your point Simon but some people were very quick to judge the sceptics while defending Lewishamman. He won the sympathy vote as he was '79'. I even apologised to him myself though it didn't mean I believed him.

[Horsebox]

No. Is it about the Internet?

I was very suspicious about the condoms being left outside, why on earth would they do that?!

The wealthy russian mafia in East Dulwich didn't really add up either!

[sophiesofa]

I was also very suspicious but I thought just incase it did happen to be genuine it was best to offer advice. I think the person who did it is a sad nobber who needs to re-evaluate their approach to how they live their life. Just my 2 cents worth.

Fake designer bags, fake perfume and now fake local residents. What is the world coming to?

[sophiesofa]

fake dog poo...

[????]

i dunno...as long as it doesn't get to fake orgasms

[sophiesofa]

never heard of such a thing

[Muley]

So no point applying for a job as a piano player then?

[Bellenden Belle]

I think the best way for us to deal with such trolls would be to ignore them entirely. To literally erase them and carry on.

This thread simply continues to give them the attention they crave.

You would have thought there might be more interesting and original ways that a 42 year-old man living in Brighton could find to occupy his time. (*waves*)

He downloaded music and played the piano, too :))

[Santerme]

I was being fake kind to him, hope that is not an offence to be banned for!!!

[SteveT]

When it comes to addresses of these disgraceful places they are always fake.

I was planning to go right round there and tear them off a strip about having to wade through two feet of fake condoms thus lowering the tone of the area.

All those fake russians pretending to be poles.

[woofmarkthedog]

I have grown a beard searching the streets for that plaice

Cod sake, I should have known a red herrying when I spelt one

W**F

[????]

Probably but Surely not locally, only an idiot buffoon would shite on his own doorstep.......

[DeptfordDiva]

LM could still be caught, didnt he say in the original thread that he was arranging to pick up something that was advertised on the For Sale section? He might still turn up and forumites could lay in wait and nab him:)
