This is a question Stupid Colleagues

Godwin's Lawyer tells us: "I once worked with a lad who believed 'Frankenstein' was based on a true story, and that the book was written by Shirley Bassey." Tell us about your workplace dopes.

It goes all the way from zero to zero.

Seriously, you need to go to /offtopic archives to check out this one's lunacy.
It stretches belief...

From barking mad posts, to paying blaireau the alky's mortgage for him, to changing username and coming back pretending to be a successful American of the opposite gender, to having a MASSIVE FLOUNCE, and the 'fessing up.

Honestly, this is in a different league to the usual nonsense.

If you revisit the AB archive you'll note that the posters hightlighted bring an all new meaning to 'confused loner'
WBM/Roger is standard qotw fodder

AM??
You don't mean AB?

You think WBM/Roger is standard? I'd class her in a league of nutter way in excess of most posters on any of the b3ta boards. She's keeping Bert company.

There is no standard confused qotw loner, that's why it's the gift that keeps on giving

Nicely ninja-edited...
There are a variety of them, but you'll find a lot of sad acts on /talk too.

AB's archive provides a vital function in highlighting some delusional nutjobs (and it's good reading). There are a lot of people who just wanna be involved, but have nothing really to say.

WBM/Roger is a weapons grade loony though, she's far more bonkers than most... she's way ahead of the tedious, the liars, the urban-legend pitchers and the foolish.

Having taken the trouble
to post this opinion 5 or 6 times in the same thread, seems to me you'd probably make a really great couple.
(, Fri 4 Mar 2011, 9:48, closed)
yes probably.
i've always had a think for crazy, easily exploited fishing-obsessed women (it's allowed me to live well, with no real effort).

Also, as is well known, I spend my time trolling QOTW. I never post, and only exist to mock.

BTW, did I make it clear that WBM is mega-nuts?

Seems to me
that this poster is almost certainly a shared troll.

Seems to me you're a retard that doesn't regularly read my posts.
Check my user history (it's easily accessible) and you'll get a clearer understanding.

You're 12, right?
I have read /his/her/their posts. They are kind of inconsitent. Looks like 3 or 4 different people making the posts.

They do it to provoke reactions. It's an old jedi trick, only works on the weak minded. Good thing you manage to ignore it.

Sorry sorry sorry
i misunderstood you entirely - i thought you were calling me a troll! Boy, do I feel silly!

Let me clarify - the WBM/Roger account is shared?

It ain't (to the best of my knowledge)

She was here for years as WBM, photies up and everything - all consistent, and she was a nice lady.
Then she paid someone here's mortgage for several months for him, the she went nuts.

Roger was invented as a new persona, and she wrote it from "his" perspective. This is why it's inconsistent...

Anyway, sorry for the misunderstanding.

edit: i did consider a ninja-edit to remove my fuck-up, but thought better of it.

It's OK, I worked that out . . .
Can never say for certain, but someone so single mindedly determined to wind people up has to be suspect. Has all the hallmarks - female, foreign (to most of this board), nuts. All nice hooks for a troll to cast into the waters.

The fact she suddenly changed might just mean she was real, but then gave up her account to someone else. Have seen it happen.

It's not actually a bad thing. If it's done well and doesn't become destructive it can liven a board up immensely.

But, I cold be wrong.
(, Fri 4 Mar 2011, 10:20, closed)
I think you are
I think the wind up was incidental - i think she's just massively insecure, has a troubled childhood (she claims to have been abused) and wants validation.

She was perfectly nice (never the most exciting or funniest poster, but pleasant enough), then she went bananas.
(, Fri 4 Mar 2011, 10:29, closed)
Whoa.
That's a big old sack of internet issues right there. Are we sure she's not south african?
(, Fri 4 Mar 2011, 9:21, closed)
Seriously, and every bit of it is true....
She started off as a normal QOTWer then went completely spazzy.

She does live in the US though....

Hopefully, she's back to pretty much normal again.

What's the South African thing - you'e mentioned it a coupla times now.
(, Fri 4 Mar 2011, 9:28, closed)
A fugly south african went mental a few years ago
in a slightly scary "Enduring Love" sort of way. She stalked a few regulars (including phoning up my employer and conning them into giving her my work mobile number) convinced that we were all in love with her.

I believe she still holds the record for the highest number of banned accounts - it was into three figures. I think cr3 eventually re-coded the moderators' view of the board so that it highlighted south africans for easy insta-banning.

edit: cheers
(, Fri 4 Mar 2011, 9:50, closed)
Wow!
3 figures? That beats the shit out of Bert - I thought he held the record...

edit: cheers

Edit2: (For the record, I like Legless, and enjoy reading his posts, I just find this cheers thing funny). Cheers
(, Fri 4 Mar 2011, 10:06, closed)
I have no real idea what the "cheers" thing is about.
I'm just trying to ingratiate myself with the locals.

Cheers.
