Paranoid

There seems to be a lot of paranoid types in the beer world at the moment. It's evident from the number of impersonators currently infiltrating the comments section of various blogs. It seems that Jeff (Stonch), Tandleman, Sausage, Barry and I all seem to have people pretending to be us. I really don't care as it just shows how weird most people in the beer blog world tend to be.

This post goes out to Barry. It has been brought to my attention that Barry has updated his user profile and states he is "Currently being cyber stalked and impersonated by Tim." He has also setup a flame blog called The Chronicles Of Timmy.
Whatever...... If you need to blog about me you obviously have too much time on your hands. But thanks for caring.

This track goes out to you.

Hopefully he comes 'round and explains himself. We really need to get to the bottom of this.

So I am cyber stalking and impersonating Barry, but he sets up a blog purely with the intention of having a shot at me?

Yeah - the pot called who black?

The point is that I'm not pretending to be anyone else. The blog was setup at the suggestion of some of your other victims and is merely a way of explaining the situation.My impersonator only sprang up after the run in with you and all the evidence points to you.However if the ISP records clear you,I will be the first to apologise.
On a related note,I'm not sure Tandleman & Stonch are being impersonated.I think this is just a flare up of something that started long ago.Stonch has deleted comments from his blog that he says Tandleman made but his are still up on Tandleman's blog. A click on them brings up his original profile so there's no doubt it is he.Sometimes you don't need an impersonator to make trouble for you.

Barry, i'm not impersonating anyone, but you seem to be the source of a lot of trouble. First you start trolling this blog with negative comments then declaring your sexual relationship with Gazza. I don't care if someone is impersonating you. Really you bring it upon yourself.

Firstly I don't have any victims. If the hat fits wear it. I make no secret that I think tickers are weirdos. Have a problem, don't read what I have to say. But don't whinge, spam me as an anon or feel you have a right to comment because you feel offended or whatever.

So you are saying that your blog was set up at the suggestion of others. Yeah thats great, but if its so important to do so then why are you not sharing it with everyone? I fail to see how it explains any situation.

And what run in with me?? You trolled my blog here and personally attacked me on other peoples blog comments. That makes you a dickhead, but you have exposed yourself in such a way that everyone sees that anyway.

And I don't need any ISP records to clear me. And what ISP records would you have access to anyway? Unless you happen to be a fictitious character invented by one of the authors of one or two of the other blogs I read from time to time.

And why do all these trolls seem to come from the same Manchester based IP range. Smells like a duck, quacks like a duck - I'm pretty sure its a duck.

I hope that isn't a dig at me Timbo. I wouldn't even know how to do it, never mind wish to. Anyone wants my ISP records to check, I'll give them written permission to do so.

And one more thing, I don't believe I have an impersonator either, but it's possible I suppose if there is a general trouble maker around. I do believe there is mischief afoot and it would be interesting to find out who or what is behind it.

It's remarkable that all the hate in the blog world seems to come from the NW of England (NOT a pop at Tandleman - just an observation based on about two years of experience).

Well, I'm cleared. I'm into tracks, the arts, which include nudes, cars, brewing, cooking, drinking. Whoever is behind this, has some communication problems. Wouldn't it be best to just record a track and be done with it? If there needs to be a trial, so be it. I gave up a while ago trying to hide. I'm a handsome, suave sophisticate, so why hide? Perhaps our impostor is a bit John Merrick? Maybe this is a cry for help??

@tandie, not crack at anyone in specific, but others including Stonch have commented that nearly all trolling activity seems to come from the NW of England. It may be coincidence, but its more than likely not.

So you must have an idea. Spit it out.

And I think Stonch has a different complaint which doesn't involve IP addresses. As far as I know he is concerned about known individuals, though he'll correct me if I have that wrong.

That video takes me back to March 1978 when I saw Black Sabbath supported by Van Halen ~ Ozzy's tonsils freshly sandpapered for the occasion. That was in the Southport Theatre where all they show now are tribute bands and summer shows.

That was real music, not a copycat band.
