Was gonna ask the same myself. Did a little investigating and they are all over this site. Sometimes with little bits of info and always with this little saying attached or just this. Got a feeling it's just someone with not much else to do and maybe with not even a real visa journey going on. I had a look cause when I got their "topic reply" my Outlook Express died and I thought I remembered that happening before. Was thinking maybe should tell Captain Ewok or something.

Actually just noticed they are in those scary "off-topics" bit alot. Maybe Wenchie knows. Maybe he's stalking her. Maybe a sense of humour I just don't get.

just wondering why she's doing it. looks to me like she's just trying to boost her blue dots and hearts...what a waste of time and energy.

it looks like it is just about every topic here.

doesn't bother me but i think if you are going to write something it really should be a useful question, answer or comment.

just my opinion...and you know what i say about opinions. :lol:

matt

Opinions are like arseholes. Everyone's got one and they all stink!

Goodness, I feel pretty silly now. Didn't get that at all. :jest: Mmmm, think I got a bit to learn. Mum says I got a sense of humour like wet dish-rag. Thanks Jodee, my imagination got the better of me.

Oh and the scary off-topics (I made it all worse I think with that) well I might keep that to myself, just read a few that started to make me a little worried about the mentality of a few. Just my opinion, and as we know what Matt says.

And sorry smushtag, I know nothing but someone else here may.
