It seems to me that, even in my short time on PERB, there's been a noticeable increase in people calling "Shill". Sometimes I agree, sometimes I don't but with the increase in bickering over "Shill or Not shill" there seems to be corespondingly fewer useful posts. IMHO if you suspect a review is bogus, before flaming the poster, search thier posts etc. If as in the latest Victoria "flaming" it's a new poster, ignore them until they have a bit of a track record. If they are a shill they'll keep making a fool of themself, in which case: flame away! Not all new posters lurk and figure out the ground rules before jumping in; some may be just over dramatic. Don't get me wrong! I'm not condoning shills but the flame wars may be worse than the shilling. A lot of ones who were regular posters on the Victoria section when I joined, don't seem to be posting much any more though I still see them on the "logged in" list. From the tone of the posts I have seen from them, they're disgusted with all the name-calling and bullshit. What a shame! Those guys have waaaay better pooning budgets than I'm ever likely to and have the goods on a lot of ladies.
Enough of my ranting! Let's remember what we're here for.
