Looking back over 2012, did we even get a IP address on the mysterious Severne-bashing troll?

www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/General/Severne-quality-control/?page=1

Cari Sveltma still has yet to generate a second google hit or open a facebook account....

Was it an acronym?

Just going over that thread.

I have found sometimes it is sponsors or other people working for other similar companies that like to generate Troll accounts to see what the response with something like that happening is. (no offence to site sponsors etc).

I have been into RC Planes and Helicopters for around 9yrs. We had people set up Troll accounts on the forum I was on just after major events to see what peoples reactions were to a $3000 Helicopter or a $20,000+ Model Jet Turbine Plane crashing due to a possibly faulty part were.

They would post 1 or 2 comments than be never heard from again. We caught a couple out and removed them from the forum. They are hard to catch but they get the Bites they are after.

$20,000+ Model Jet Turbine Plane?!

That was my thought too. The account was opened by someone entirely to troll.

Laurie - do you have the IP address?

I am not a Troll...but I think you are a knob. You go on about "Severne Bashing" and then bring it up again.

And yes I posted in the original forum with regard to people making reasonable comments.

It's blokes like you that ruin this forum - STUART? GINGERPOM? Just who are you? Sorry you're the guy who has credibility because you have more than 1400 posts! Wow.

IP addresses???? You talk about trolls and yet you go on about finding out someone's IP address???? Sounds like you are the troll and love a bit of stalking?

Here's a tip...give it a rest. (and no..I do not know CariS).

hmmm.... angry... and a little lazy if you don't mind me saying....

The link I posted featured a post from me saying

I'm sorry but Severne are pretty ballsy when it comes to a 2 year unconditional warranty.

Googling "Cari Sveltma" seems to get zero hits... so whatever she's been doing all her life, she's kept a low profile... which is odd considering that she's just charged into this forum like a bull in a china shop....

Interesting as to why I might bash Severne when

> I own four of their sails, two of their masts, one of their boom and a severne extension
> how it was actually me that pioneered the "Severne sails are good" (www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/General/Position-Vacant-Severne-Sails-Graphic-Designer-4/) campaign two years ago (this was linked in the link that I posted above)
> I posted about the fact that I own one of their booms two days ago (www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/General/Different-boom-profiles/) ,

if you read my recent posts... something which it is generally considered polite to do before you form an opinion on whether someone is a "knob" and probably essential before you decide to share that opinion.....

And maybe 1400 posts means that I have been on here a little longer than you and perhaps have a little bit more context.. maybe some understanding about checking recent posts before blundering in.... and perhaps a little bit more interest in whether things sort of work.... hence why I was interested as to whether Laurie ever found out the IP address of someone who only popped into existence briefly in order to slag off a brand

And trolling is anonymous... calling myself ginger pom and putting my actual first name on my profile makes me pretty un frickin anonymous if you visit bayside beaches in melbourne

what do you want me to do, share my surname so that my employer can tell when I've been sailing?

On one hand you state you aren't anonymous then on the other you state you don't post your surname so your employer doesnt know when you sail?

if you really are a ginger pom your boss is going to know when your been sailing....

And sorry if it's all ruined for you Victor. Stay positive and everything will be OK.
