Admin, sir: I've joined this site very recently and presently am going thru various posts using search facility. I've some observation. What about the ID of the bloggers? I have come across some typical situations where identities have been challenged and to me it appears that the challenges were genuine. I refer to #601549 and particularly from #601549-22 dtd 04/12/2012 till #601549-42 dtd 10/12/2012.

Since yesterday, I have started looking at some member's posts particularly connected with the said post #601549. If it is now called 'singling out' - yes, it is that. There are reasons.

The person has been challenged on occasions, and then has either become silent or has reappeared after some days with a different ID. I request Admin, sir, not to delete this post - let us start doing some job which is relevant to this esteemed forum so that unusual activities (like pasting fake/superimposed photographs, pasting copied material from other forums, writing trip reports just staying at home, commenting only with words like 'awesome', 'great', 'nice' etc, thus increasing number of posts to receive congrats) get stopped. Thanks. Pabitra Mukherjee.
