The only defence we've got may be just that - some measure of traceability of
messages that are posted. As for a)why someone would do this, and b)how it can

I'd also like to echo Jeff Thompson's reply to your post,
Welcome to the dark side of the internet, and
Please don't let this get you down or spoil your opinion of our community.
Within each community there will always be the stellar individuals, but also
the lone wart.
On a brighter note, I haven't yet added my voice to the hundreds replying to
your original post. So I shall;
Welcome to Lugnet. May our relationship bring much joy and creativity to us
all!
