The comment left by this person doesn't even say 'interesting' as OP said--it says 'in testing' which means absolutely nothing. I hope Q can get this fixed. Crazy that someone would waste their time doing this.

I have reported about 20 posts as well, bebe.

They need to have at least one webbie working to take care of this sort of problem when it arises at 3 am.

I have a few candidates when the time comes!

Actually, the poster said, "In testing," which makes me wonder if it was a Q IT person working in the wrong environment. (Technical people usually have a separate environment where they can implement and test new code.) The person had 500 posts, too.

This is an interesting theory! If it is some sort of testing, they are testing our patience, as well! Smiley Happy

It's a known troll who does this from time to time under various nics.

Not sure we need 100 threads about it though, just gives 'it' the attention it craves.

This board should be passworded so only those who sign in can see the entire board content. Right now anyone can view any post. Also all content we personally post can be found in a google search under our screen name.

Q IT need to set up some way to prevent robots and spiders. Those fuzzy random numbers on some websites you must type in to prove you aren't a robot.

This character knew how to hack the code. I doubt someone would sit there and physically reply to every thread.

Somebody give OP her "Deputy Dawg" badge. Ending Silliness on the Internet, One Troll at a Time.

Good grief. Who gives a flip about this kind of stuff? Harmless BB silliness. No big deal.

ITA on both counts. I remember when this happened a few months ago, also usually in the middle of the night. I have a pretty good idea who this known troll is, given some info from the last go-around. I'd say it's most definitely not a hacker or bot; it's a human, of sorts.
