From the guidelines:

"Please don't post insinuations about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email [email protected] and we'll look at the data."

If you have an actual response to the points they're making, please share. Otherwise this comment doesn't contribute anything productive to the discussion at hand.

Yeah, my bad. But I can't delete the comment for some reason, not sure why I can't even if it is flagged. You think it'd be ok to delete a comment that doesn't follow the rules.

Oh well, I tried.

One does not "accidentally" write an entire series of baseless accusations derailing the conversation, only to say "oops" when the response is universally negative.

This is a pretty unhinged accusation, especially when made against an account with clearly organic posts going back over a decade

My posts are not only organic, they are local, fresh, and some smell a bit like manure!

> I mean, what you say is all interesting and stuff, but you created this account today

Their profile says it was created in August 2011.

GP, out of curiosity, how did you make this mistake? What made you think the account was created today?

Edit: Looks like GP ninja-edited their comment to remove the bit about the account being created today.

Correct, I wrote that accidentally, I erased that real fast, like 1 minute later, but for some reason, people can still see it, I guess.

It was not a Ninja edit, just a mistake that I corrected a minute later but I don't know, maybe there's some kind of automatic feed that sends the post out to everyone?
