Hi Recently on the PDF board we have been plagued by someone naming himself Mr Mappyman argueing with regulars on that board and winding up all with contrary unfounded, unrealistic comments. No facts, no figures just mindless statements. Yesterday things got much worse as he started posting as Mrs Mappy and Royalbluemersey and posting weird chat between the names. I joined this site because its a vehicle for investment in shares and has the ability to discuss, positive or negative in an adult manner. This person is just destroying that enviroment on that board. If you find that these posts are unacceptable, could you just check the IP against other posters, I can give a name but am concerned about dragging an innocent into this. Not sure how easy it will be without specifics. Is there way "reporting a person" could have a comment saying why you are reporting them - often its over a series of posts rather than just 1 Thanks in advance

Further to this report he has just made another account as "Mrs Bandit.tt" and is slandering a well respected LSE PDF BB member.

A solution to this problem would be that each and every post has its IP posted. I have been on other BB's before where the IP is available and this would sort out 90% of the problems without involving Admins. Within the PDF thread there is now several names suggested as being the same person. If all this is true there are several BB's wwhere these names have been involved in collective ramping , deramping. if that is the case then this boders on fraud.

Thanks OF13. We have already banned all 4 ID's you mentioned and do monitor IP addresses internally. The idea about adding a comment when reporting a person is appreciated and we will look to add this function.
