Is it just me, or does there seem to be a whole lot of 'new' posters lately sprouting such remarks as "Signed up today with ***********, they're really good blah blah blah"?

Now, I'm not suggesting the 'new' posters are representatives of ***********, as it could all be a mere coincidence and there is no self promotion going on, but it would be interesting to compare their email addresses with *********** details.

I'll slip away now and put on my "The Paranoids Are After Me" tee shirt.

Nah,
I think it's a recurring non-event...

Nobody's fooled, but they don't know that: they're newbies :D
