When I woke up this morning, I saw
92 comments on the rock post, which you can wade through by clicking on the above link or you can see the abridged version which gives you
the general idea here. [And yes, I do have the isp addresses, despite it showing up in Sitemeter as "not known".]
I thought something was strange for a blogger who's never had more than 40 comments.
Reading down, the first thing which struck me was that it was quite funny at the beginning. Then it went on and on and on. Suddenly it turned nasty and I've left enough comments up for you to get the general idea.
If you read the unabridged version [click on the first link], you'll see it starts at 22:07 and ends at 02:14. That means that this man sat at his computer and left comments on my post for around four hours, commenting every few minutes, sometimes once a minute. I'm trying to imagine sitting at a computer for four hours commenting on someone else's blog.
Nah - can't imagine a sane mind doing that.
It's always possible I am wrong in this but the ladies seemed to be sure about it. In the interests of fairness though, it might have been the Fantasy Fight Club who did it, on his behalf. He is close to them apparently.
This is a link to another site he set up in 2007. [Disclaimer: please don't click on the link unless you are absolutely sure you want to.]
I've deeply apologized, on his behalf, to the ladies he was saying those things about but perhaps now someone might take my warnings more seriously.
UPDATE 12:47: If you go to this archived post, scroll down to comments and look at the comment by Ms Smack. Now go to the original post here; you'll see it has been deleted this morning. Why would Ms Smack wish to go in and delete her own comment on a 2007 post on a Sunday morning in November 2008? Read the comment she deleted in the archived version again. Why would she be looking at a post of mine on a Sunday morning anyway when most people are just waking up? Check the time of my post below.My brain hurts from all the thinking. :)
UPDATE 21:20: I understand that a certain gentleman is now claiming he was at the pub from 10:04 p.m. for one and a half hours but then realized it was between 10:04 and midnight. No doubt there are close friends to corroborate that exact time he arrived and swear on their grandmothers that it was so. Yeah, right. He just shouldn't let his isp address be used by others then, in his absence and continue the comments in exactly the same way when he returned. And then there is the little matter of his sockpuppet site.
