Kirsten...are you aware that as a non-member of Mudcat, who posts as a "Guest"...anyone whatsoever can, if they wish, come onto this forum anonymously and post supposedly AS YOU? All they have to do is open this or any other thread, type out their chosen comments, and then type the name "kirsten anderberg" in the little "from" box...and

voila!

You have just been impersonated by someone else. Someone who might say... "I am deeply sorry for being such an asshole, and I apologize to all of you. My articles really are not that good, and I am terminally vain and have been trying to get help for it, so please pardon me. I will try not to stir up any more trouble here."

Anyone can do that, Kirsten. It's as easy as flicking the mud off your jeans. Your posts have little credibility, because there's no way for anyone here to know if they really came FROM you!

What I would advise, therefore, is that you either JOIN the forum, and get a membername, in which case people will not be able to impersonate you here...OR...face the fact that your posts may be not emanating from you AT ALL. Regardless of what they say or don't say.

Does this give you a clue as to why "Guests" lack credibility here to some extent? Specially malicious Guests whose only mission in life is to cause pain to other people, and delude themselves that they have a moral imperative to do so...because they are "better" than those people?

The "Kirsten Anderberg" show so far has been:

1. a farce
2. but somewhat amusing, at least
