Attention Moderators: Troll Alert

anomdenet, men do not have the right to voice opinions on this forum???

Is the the same guy who keeps changing his name by adding different numbers to it?

Could he now have changed his name to truthseeker2?  Their posts seem to have the same "flavor" if you will.

If it is, and he just keeps rejoining and changing his name and wreaking havoc in this forum and others, not much we can do.

It's not Linda who is suspecting "worriedhusband through worriedhusband6" is the same person, and possiby "truthseeker2" may be this person.  It is me.

Call it my feminine instinct--only threads of any of the "worriedhusband through worriedhusband6" I read was all the comments made by him/them on the Radiation necessary in an early stage cancer thread.

I am not making any accusations, only wondering outload if all of you guys are the same person, and I think that is covered under free speach?

Just strikes me as you all have the same style of writing, etc.  And seem to love to stir the pot!  And having only joined on October 4 (isn' that today?) and made only a few posts, "truthseeker2" sure seems to know a lot about the board and its participants.

There is a way to find out who he is.  There is a certain ID number that he has when he signed up here. That ID number can send breastcancer.org administration straight to his computer. They shouldn't delete his file until they get that ID information.

Now it is truthseeker3?  I am rolling on the floor laughing now--lets all just ignore this guy--

But I think that is what we are doing, so he changes his name and is no longer on our ignore list--

How do you consider it an attack when we are all simply on to you?

Is that why you keep changing your name?  To stay off of our ignore list?

And please explain how this is being mean and nasty?

This thing with  this board is we are a bunch a women (and men) who have seen this kind of thing happen before--I just cannot believe that you, either truthseeker3 or truthseeker2 are not the same person--and also the same person as all of the worriedhubbys.

We don't like imposters.  We don't like someone is is not honest.  Do you blame us?  And from the looks of things where I am sitting in the peanut gallery, you are not being honest or sincere, and I just cannot understand this constant name changing, unless for whatever reason you are enjoying it.

I am truly sorry for you if your wife has BC and you are scared and losing it and just don't know what to do, so you are coming here to be with us.  But please, this is not the way to "be with us."

I remember either posting to you or sending you a PM way back when, asking you to please step back a bit (when you first joined as worriedhubby on the radition thread) before you started saying nasty things to the ladies about why they should not even see a doctor if they thought they knew better than the doctors. 

My frank opinion is that you have contributed nothing to this board but trouble, which is why most of us are not too fond of you.

Just my personal opinion.

And just like in the style of worried hubby (cannot remember the number), you say inflamatory things like "that is like asking a dog not to bark."   What do you think will be accomplished, in the big picture, by saying something like this?  That you are going to win popularity contests?

I really don't have the time, energy or inclination to look up and report back to you about identical sentence structure and style, etc. among all of the worriedhubbys and you.  Matter of fact, I have said my piece, and would respectfully ask you to come clean if you expect to be a welcome member of this board.

p.s.  I don't mind being compared to a dog--I love dogs and indeed, the true leader of the pack, who has earned that position, just has to say "QUIET!" and the dog will stop barking, out of  respect to that the leader of the pack, which respect the leader has earned with consistency and trust over a long period of time.

And as Forest Gump would say, that is all I have to say about that. 

Whooo-Hoooo.......Look ladies at the names he just referred to in his last post. Who would know them specifically if he hadn't "dealt" with them before!

If you really have a wife with BC, then PLEASE GET OFF OF HERE AND GIVE HER THE LOVE AND TIME SHE NEEDS FROM YOU, WHILE GOING THROUGH CANCER!!!! Shame on you be spending your time on a computer, harassing other women.....................!

No Kerry, I have found these boards immensely informative and interesting and they have given me a different perspective on life. I am amazed at how so many good, warm and decent women are here for other women.   I am not here for entertainment.  As my name implies, I  seek the truth here and have expressed the truth here.  I think, or hope, for instance that most women here and the moderators are smart enough to know that the mexican alternative clinics are all about scamming people out of their money.  And I noticed when the male, valiant, much maligned worried hubby tried to express opinions about  those scams, he was viciously attacked and demonized by some of the women here.  The moderators apparently took action against worried hubby because he has stopped posting.  And yet no action was taken against the mean, nasty women who attacked worried hubby or the scamsters for spreading false hope about scam treatments on these boards.  I simply see my role as a messenger of the truth, and have filled in the role that worried hubby is no longer able to provide, or so I assume.  Of course as a reader here of his posts this is only speculation on my part.  How could I know for sure worried hubby was terminated?  Perhaps he is on vacation.   Yes, I know chemo and bad health might affect a person's attitude.  Breast cancer though is not the only cancer in the world and women are not the only people who get sick and die from cancer.  Everybody, even in the face of lifes most trying moments should try to live their life with respect and dignity, to themselves and to their fellow men and women.  Nobody should be given a free pass for being mean and nasty imho. 

He's achieving what he wants by getting you to respond, by making you angry. That's what flamers do. I swear, if you just ignore him directly, and make a point of NOT responding to him, he'll burn out and go away. Just try it for a few days. I know it's hard, but empower yourselves. Ignore him.

    I think we all know that you are really the same man as Worriedhusband and none of us believe for a minute that you have a wife who has breast cancer... you sound like a woman hater who has never been married.  Leave the girls alone.

I have no problem with people expressing a wide variety of sometimes conflicting opinions... that variety is one of the best things about the internet.  Let's just keep the discussion civil and appropriate for a support forum.

Agreed one-thousand percent.  Everybody should have the right to express opinions without being attacked and insulted and harassed and complained about to the moderators. 

cp418,

Normally, setting the ignore feature would work, and I did that several "Worried Husband" incarnations back, but since this guy keeps changing his screen name often by adding/changing the number at the end of it, that doesn't work for long.  If he can keep his comments civil and appropriate, fine, but that doesn't seem to happen for long, and that is the issue. 

Hey, BC sisters-- 

Imagine that you are at a party, and most of the people there are dear friends of yours.  However, one of the people attending the party happens to be a remote relative of the hostess.  He found out about the party and "invited" himself, claiming he knew other people there and would like to attend.

By now, the remote relative has had far too much to drink, and he is making a nuisance of himself.  He keeps interjecting himself into other people's conversations, trying to engage the other party-goers in arguments about controversial subjects.  He seems to enjoy pointing out how ignorant and naive the other attendees are, and how knowledgeable he is.

Many of the other people at the party think he is being obnoxious and would like him to go home, but the party hostess cannot bring herself to ask him to leave.  So, you have a dilemma:   you want to avoid interacting with him....but how do you do that?

There are really only 4 reasonable options.  First, you can insist that the hostess demand that he leave--but she has already declined to do that.  Second, you can approach the man yourself, and urge him to go home--but he is clearly enjoying himself and will not leave voluntarily.  In fact, several people have already asked him to leave, and he has responded with belligerence, pointing out that he has as much right to be there as they do.  Third, you can find your own coat and car keys, and go home--but, why should you have to shorten your stay at the party, just because there is one obnoxious person there?

The fourth and best action is to ignore him.  Pretend he is not there.  If he walks up to you and initiates a conversation, excuse yourself and walk away.  If he joins a conversation you are having with others, ignore him.  Talk around him.  Do not respond to his comments and especially do not react to his barbs if he starts getting hostile.

Eventually, he will grow bored with his game and will leave.  Either that, or he will pass out in the bathroom.
