Stalker or coincidence?

Does anyone else have a someone here that seems to post right after them on almost every thread? Usually with an augumentative or counter post. Stalker or coincidence?

Sometimes (often?) I might be that someone!

My vote is for coincidence. I never go looking for people to disagree with, but I sure do seem to find them.

Pay it no mind....I would say coincidence, you are on at the same time and interested in the same threads.

Could just be OFD setting in. It seems to run in the family.

I think it has a lot to do with what you are saying in your posts. Some people post in an aggressive manner which initiates an aggressive response. Add to that pet interests such as hot topic issues like hitches, for example, and you can see the same folks jump into the fray.

I think it is more often coincidence. I am not the paranoid kind even though most people are out to get me.

I've noticed that too, though not in response to my posts . I assume it's coincidence.

One other thing I've noticed about those same people. They will repost the same opinion multiple times.
Repetition converts an opinion into a fact, ya know.

add edit:
in post #6 I thought OFD = Old Fart's Disease .... yeah, I have a case of that ....
but then I looked here http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/OFD ......
now I'm confused, not a stalker

Paranoia is just preemptive self-defense!

Stalker or Coincidence?

Stalker or coincidence?

Does anyone else have someone on the AirForums that seems to post right after a new post on almost every thread? Usually with an argumentative or counter post. Stalker or coincidence?

I find that Toilet Paper Threads appeal to these argumentative individuals. You can not 'wipe them out'. It happens.

I find that Interior Rivet Threads are a riveting subject. No two rivet issues are exactly alike, but do involve the same rivets.

Tires? I am tire..d of tire Threads. I have my Tire and Wheel Thread and so many new tire Threads have covered 14" to 16" tires and wheels. Much like toilet paper Threads. They tend to roll out and wear out.

Boondocking Threads. Since when has camping become so complicated? I think that boondocking should be a Thread when there are no accommodations at the site other than a picnic table and pit toilet... maybe a water pump. The rest should be under Living in My Trailerdocking Threads.

No one copied the Flashlight Thread last year. No stalkers, even thought a 1500 lumen blow torch is now at Costco.

Don't you hate it when someone is... argumentative? They presume everyone else with toilet paper issues is some kind of prima donna of some sort. You just want to wipe that smirk off their face.

At times those of us who are argumentative will find a Thread that is so off track it needs to be derailed. Those who stalk among the poorly designed Threads are required to open a new Thread, and clean the Black Tank of 'debris' and sludge.

How to operate your Zip Dee Awning threads. I have met folks that wonder why their fresh water tank is empty... after they filled it. No one mentioned there are open and closed valves and a plug for the hot water tank. The learning curve begins at Zero and then proceeds to posting for others to understand that a Trailer and your Home operate differently.

I applaud stalkers on this Forum. You are lucky you are not an Expert, like myself, on Casino Craps play and systems. The AirForums is mellow compared to Gambling Addicts.

If YOU have a better 'Stalker or Coincidence' Thread... please do not let common sense get in your way. It does not inhibit myself from stepping into the septic tank of ideas. Immediately post YOUR Stalker or Coincidence thread after reading this misdirected thread. Yours could be much more informative and name those stalkers.

Your spell check gets a workout and with luck, you will also be able to edit the misspelled words and do some good for those of us who like to stalk those on the AirForums.

I find it obscene and a defect within an individual's thought process to come up with their own Thread and milk it to death. Anyone who would stalk an original idea on the AirForum obviously is a new member.

There are few original ideas, other than my own.

A befuddling post as usual. But thank you for you contribution.

His joke only works if you check "New Posts" to see that Ray has just started his own thread with the same name. Which I have already chosen to "ignore" BTW.

But kudos to Ray for the elaborate setup…

I am a 'Peeping Poster' on this Forum

I consider myself a 'peeping poster'. I will take a quick peek at a Thread, find it disgusting and look behind another curtain, of sorts.

A 'Peeping Poster' is a pre- 'Stalking Poster' but inhibited.

An Ipad poster can be picked out among the stalkers immediately. They do not have paragraphs and often run sentences together. As if there is a space limit to knowledge on a post.

I want to hear from each and every current Stalker on Off Topic Stalking to admit their participating and show remorse, as I might do in the future. After I am deceased, of course.

It might involve 'Nonsensical but True' or 'Airstream Sightings' which is beyond my already low standards of socializing and personal responsibility.

When towing my Airstream... I see it in my rear view mirrors. I am sick of Airstream Sightings. Well... I do hope to see my trailer still in my rear view mirrors while towing.

Pro, I rarely find his post funny or even understand his point. So nothing new in not understanding his response.

Okay, it's early still, I'm confused. Is this just two guys annoyed at each other.

I wonder if we can get both threads in the lineup of "recent discussions" at the same time? (gotta hurry...)

I was stalked by the CHP, while rolling thru the Mammoth area on 395. I saw him at the bottom of a grade, watched as he "hid" his car behind a big chain controls sign. Hoping I would be rolling faster than the 55 from the down grade and pop into view of his radar just past the sign.
When I went past I looked over and he looked too, then he dropped it in gear and left his hidey hole, back the other way.

Should I post this in the argue thread? ?
