Over the past couple of weeks we seem to have attracted a selection of new and `interesting` Oatcakers such sas, apiwas etc with, it's fair to say 'alternative views' to many of us. As entertaining as they are I'm wondering if we're being targeted by Eastern bots ? If so, why ?
What do the masses think ?

It sows division and mistrust, to weaken support for the prevailing policies of the day. It's how Brexit was won, and now they're trying to turn the public against supporting Ukraine by talking about the financial cost, corruption, loss of life, the futility of taking on Russia etc. If dissent grows, then western support for Ukraine will weaken.
Personally, I don't engage with them, as I don't wish to give them any oxygen.

Infiltration has always happened on here to some extent. Some years back when Kenwynne Jones joined us from Sunderland there was a poster who always used to big up KJ and aggressively defend him whenever anybody labelled him a lazy mard-arse. After that had gone on for a couple of years it became noticeable this guy didn't engage on any other topic, and a quick check showed he actually joined the same day as KJ!... I called him out and he never posted again  |

OK I'll come clean - My Musik alter-ego was such a hit I decided to branch out globally.
Wait until my trans Peruvian llama farmer, who fucking hates Chileans after their national Table Tennis champion pipped him to South American Gold in 1983 and their continual encroaching on to his land, gets approved by admin - AlejandroLLamaDramaPingPongDingDong is going to be an absolute pisser!
Just got to perfect my borderline xenophobic Peruvian Spanish into pigeon English before 'she' goes live.

I have no problem with people coming on and having different views. It would be a boring life if we all thought the same. That sas was…..a bit much though.

You suggesting we release Momo from his captivity and see if sparks fly? Sort of like a Jurassic park style experiment? We were so impressed with what we could do nobody stopped to ask if we should be doing it! |

As entertaining as they are I'm wondering if we're being targeted by Eastern bots ? If so, why ? What do the masses think ? I'm a new poster, although I've lurked for a while. I don't think the oatcake would appear on any radars as worthy of being sent any bots. The oatcake isnt a threat to anyone. It's just a football messaging board full of people that in the main don't have many social skills so feel the need to spout off online. Not everyone of course but from the posts I see and the amount of time certain individuals seem to spend on here it certainly gives me the impression of a bit of a 40 year old virgin dorky star wars fan brigade. I believe new users were banned from signing up for quite some time which meant the oatcake became an echo chamber for far left wing views. New posters that don't sign up to that ideology are simply a reflection of the broader society. |

I don't pay much attention to who posts what to be honest but Hyaduck and his yearning for a tracksuited German man stands out.
I remember MOMO but not so much Crapslinger

I remember MOMO but not so much Crapslinger From what I've seen during my lurking days momo was an extreme left wing idealog and obvious had some issues. Carpslinger was an ordinary bloke that challenged his views which made him fair game for the woke mob but in reality his view are more inline with the general publics than most on here . I've seen some posts by Carpslinger on the sentinel, not sure if it's the same person or not but he seemed like am alright guy. His problem was his views didn't fit the online world narrative. |

TBH, I think it was more Craps and Shanghai that used to frequently gang up on Momo and make reference to him in multiple threads for no real reason. Not that it matters. The main thing is that other people can now get a word in. |

I am quite convinced from the Ukraine thread that all of the new personal posting on there are, at most, two people. They might even be all the same person.

I was trying to have an adult like conversation with a poster the other day but because I disagreed with him he took a tone which he certainly wouldn't take with me face to face. Its not the just the oatcake though I'm told twitter and other online platforms are the same . They don't represent real people and their views. |

The only time I really remember MOMO was calling into question if he was a real Sheikh or not and he got a bit lairy. Am still on the fence on the matter. Crapslinger,no recollection of at all. Mattyd I think I actually know if the same person am thinking of of he used to live in China. |
