Not sure Harvest, but the attempted communication with members is now regular, so could well be just one or two people targeting here.
I know similar Trolling is happening on other forums.
I just thought that one was particularly sinister

The last one, - the B&W Minstrel.
I only read about 3 of his posts (think he had 8 done) and realised he was making a racist comment “n....r” on one, plus asking you a question on another.
Personally I don’t care about them, just as long as they get booted off fairly sharply

I did not reply and I didn’t see the one about me.

Yes I noticed that you rightly ignored him.
He asked if you were from Manchester.
The racist remark was in some other post I have no idea of which. No doubt not aimed at anyone in particular here, but just looking to offend.
The Trolls seem to be sort of teenage behaviour/humour, - don’t they?
Probably something I would have enjoyed doing myself when I was that age, to be completely honest. 😛
It is some people’s idea of a prank

Simple things please simple minds mate. I haven’t got time for s**t like that. I come on here because I enjoy it. Not for people like that.
 
This is kind of my social media to be honest mate. I don’t do Facebook/instagram. I have stuck to this forum only. It’s a bit sad but keeps me sain

I am same as you. I don’t and won’t do Facebook.
Reading and posting on here is my therapy as well as keeping up with plumbing and hopefully helping some folk.
Trolls coming into posts are same as a stranger deliberately ruining a private conversation.
