what has happened to girl chat? yes, perverted justice is bad and wants to destroy us, but when we treat all new posters like this then we are letting them win. this is what they want, for us to treat all new posters badly and make them feel unwelcome.

I don't see many people really treating Fayla "badly," I think most people are just wisely choosing to address this with cool indifference.

as long as we do not ever share real information with anyone, they cannot hurt us.

I think the idea is that, the longer a mole is able to become integrated into the community, the more likely someone is to naturally develop a level of trust regarding them that would make them vulnerable to confiding some sort of personal information in them. So if there's some convincing evidence that we've got a mole, we need to nip the problem in the bud rather than merely surrendering to the idea that there are moles here and there's nothing we can do about it. Sometimes, there is something we can do about it.

Besides that, I just find the idea that there could be many moles here in addition to legitimate posters to be annoying, and detrimental to this board's quality.
