Shame that TGG seems to want to clog up the site as he can't get along with anybody... All of these could be interesting threads, but all at once... are we really to believe he is a "Newbie" and not our previous TGG... :-\
Have a look here:

I wondered if Dan had put him on moderation until he's made n civilised posts hence the rash of 'what variety' posts?
Think your right saddad.
I have resisted the urge to reply as these pests tend to get bored and disappear when they are ignored.
suppose you could compare it to any garden, no matter how good the garden is we always end up with the odd weed ;D
The difference is I quite like, and even encourage some weeds.. Pity he isn't as elusive as my "scarlet pimpernel" ;D
;D ;D ;D
I agree! I usually ignore him so I'll stop replying to his posts and go back to doing that. I hope that everyone else does the same as I'm sure that's the only way he'll get fed up and go elsewhere.
flighty i will be posting on this forum for many years to come. So maybe you and others can be civil instead of acting like small children,yobs, and chavs.
Could someone translate that into proper English for me... ::)
Being quite new to this site i think i have missed the joke ???
QuoteBeing quite new to this site i think i have missed the joke
Seems this person has been on various gardening websites posting comments along the lines of "what a rubbish greenhouse youve got, mines better" and "my cabbages are bigger than yours, na na na ner ner".
I suspect they have NPD http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_personality_disorder which is generally incurable as the person will never admit they are in need of help. So perhaps we should feel sorry for him/her.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder? You mean they think they're a daffodil?
Please can we just drop this & just ignore. So much easier.

Not any old daffodil but the tallest, fattest, heaviest daffodil ever created.

Why? This is the Shed where humour and pi
sstaking is all part of the fun. Life is no good without a bit of fun.
I appreciate that it is not politically correct to take the pi
ss out of sick people but it is still entertaining.
where would we be if we couldn't have a laugh now and then?
Aberdeen, probably

Trouble is Rosebud, those of us who do ignore can never build momentum because nobody notices us ;D
redclanger maybe if you had useful info to add to the conversation instead of offtopic prattle. this board would be a better place.
I still can not understand why you and others insist on attacking other posters and posting offtopic on other peoples threads, but I guess that is why you all got banned or left the bbc garden boards. guess you all just can not learn how play nice.
Ps I guess you, also don't understand that those you talk about on a public message board, can read what you post about them.
psps ttfn
pspps when you attack others. they may respond in kind.
Surely if peeps want to have a laugh at that idiot's expense it is up to them. I've read lots of his threads and they are totally bonkers - but if you don't like it you don't have to join in
So TGG is now plainleaf, plainleaf2. thegridgardener and now nextgridgardener then! ::) ::) ::) :P
He clearly has a split personality... and to quote the bard from Salford (John Cooper Clarke) "I hate both of them" or probably all five... ???
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Yes!!! 5 now , well i give up , as someone PMd , & said have a good laugh , instead of argueing with him. ;D ;D
I also suspect another poster of having a double as well. The way they answer just gives them away!!!!!, you know who you are don`t you. :P
Everyone else can get by with just the one account but trolls eventally realise that people use the ignore button so they create additional accounts so their new posts will be viewed by everyone in the hope of getting a reaction out of the people who had previously chosen to ignore them.
A general reminder while on the subject of trolls.
As well as the ignore button there is a 'report to moderator' button for any offensive/inappropriate posts & 'report to admin' button for offensive/inappropriate PMs.
to bad you and others don't know that you are the idiots.
Your freind cleo on tomato thread even admitted it.
But since you have nothing better to do, then posting off topic and uninteresting prattle.
I challenge you to actually post garden related posts on garden plant related threads. Since I do not beleive; you are capable of do this simple skill. But I could be wrong but I doubt it; from what I can see from your previous posts you all might want to see a mental health prossional or self commit yourselves.
ttfn
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
LMAO!! Barking - woof woof!
;D ;D
Rosebud - give us a clue ??? ;)

If in your opinion I'm an idiot, I'm quite happy to be so assessed.
You are a very sad sod. You enjoy nothing more than upsetting decent honest UK gardeners.
'Since I do not beleive' - learn to spell will you ducky.
I think you are the one in need of seeking the help of a 'mental health prossional'.
If you've got nothing better to do, just sod off.

Glad I found this thread, it's given me a chuckle after a really lousy week lol! ;D Think I might create a new username..........thegoodgraciousmegardener ;D
Sounds good to me ;D
I'm gonna be TheEternalOptimist....
quite sad, really - do I never learn?
;D
Well as I have the nicknames of polly and posie, how about goodgollymisspolly or dozymcposie (cos the painkillers are making me v sleepy!) ;D
I might be BlindBambi - coz I've got no eye deer! ;D ;D

Maybe we should start a new thread on this??
Then I can be LameBlindBambi ... with still no idea... ;D
He/she/it has multiple personnalities on the BBC boards asking lots of inane questions, being very critical of answers and getting upset if anyone dares to do the same to him/her/it.
At times it can be quite amusing but mostly annoying and just like a pernicious weed should be drowned in Roundup.
QuotePs I guess you, also don't understand that those you talk about on a public message board, can read what you post about them
Well of course we understand. What would be the point in calling tgg a complete and utter plonker if he couldn't see the message. Mind you seeing the message and getting the message are two different things.
The main point of this thread is to alert new and genuine readers to the fact that the narcissusistic oversized daffodil masquerades under many different names but is still just a stupid kid. The second point is to get the information permanently archived via Google so that the whole world gets the message for ever more that thegreatgardener and his many clones is not a fit person to be employed.
But when all is said and done silly children are a constant source of amusement.
Ah Bless... he is here again..poor old soul...and so many names, maybe the memory is as bad as everything else so he has to keep getting new names.
I no longer talk to him direct but will correct his rubbish comments as some newbies just might not know what he is.
He has been a busy little boy today.
As ia said earlier the warm weather brings them all out.

Bu the way.. arguing on the net is nothing like Special Olympics. I was the Tricity chair of the board for three cities in Canada with almost 400 athletes and 200+ volunteers in my care, I am a Floor Hockey coach too, there is nothing so great as watching the win..and it doesn't matter who comes second, they are all happy. When I get back to Canada in 2 weeks I am going back to work with them again.
The picture(not the words of course) made my day
XX Jeannine
If you really want to be amused try googling . towerlightning, markferon, thegridgardener, thegreatgardener, also as you see he has added a couple more here. Sometimes he even anwers some of his own questions with his different names.
Loads of other forums either side of the pond have him sussed and his tiresome ramblings just go on the ignore button.
I do not find it amusing at all on A4A and just wish you would all ignore him and pm any newbies to make them aware of the situation.
It could be that his keepers have given him a computor to play with and do not realise that he is lacking in the social skills that go with being an internet poster. ( I know, I know, Pot, kettle, black)
Please let it all go an- answered before we all start on each other again when he starts stirring, because that could also be the way he gets his rocks off.
Yes i agree with Ace about this. Lets do it.
Fine by me... :)
I have been and will continue to do so.
PS for the record, I only have one identity.

surly not ...
NO...
Corny and Ace. Well I never.
Tell me their not ...
No they can't be ...
Really ...
Well, I'm as shocked as the rest of you. ;D
Scandalous

Do you mean when the voices start talking to me I reply in a crafty cockney accent, tell old jokes and drive around in one of these.

Sussed - just looked on this thread:
http://www.allotments4all.co.uk/smf/index.php/topic,50301.msg496801.html#new
Rosebud and tomatoada are one and the same ;D ;)
Me and the island hill billy the same aaaaaahhhh. I buy a small compact car for the missus to save the planet and the black gang chine redneck drives around in a gas guzzler creating havok and chasing sheep all day in it, then the poor buggers are too tired to say no. :P ;) :-* I reckon its JRP and Ollie. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D PS I quite like the colour Ace it looks quite nippy. :-X
Bit arsed about all this, agree with posts about T,G,G, etc , but ----
don't you see he brings out the worst in us ?
The picture of a Downs Syndrome lad runing the race of his life [ can't find the poster ]
and introduce him on a site with ' that ' person -- just aint on !
Sorry upset'
flossy
Aha-I should have looked here then-it`s just that I read a PM and posted
What a thingy-its pathetic really
Why come to a gardening board to cause trouble??-maybe face book would`nt have it??
I quite like the fella. :-X ;D ;D ;D
are these 2 the same?

rosebud and hyacynth?
it is posable to trace a poster. via the IP ADDRESS.
there is more to this site than a normal member can see . there is an admin section than can ID a poster comming from the same computor. inother words a name can be changed but the IP ADDRESS does not change.
im sure the ip addy can be blocked on most sites .
perhaps the adim bods can tell you more on how they do it on A4A
8)
Some internet service providers do not provide static ip addresses. I know this because my brothers one changes each time he logs onto the internet, can't remember who he's with off the top of my head.
Tracing the IP simply takes you back to the ISP not the account holder without a court order no ISP will reveal the identity of an account holder, although a complaint could be lodged with the ISP who may decide the account holder has breached their terms & suspend or close their account.
An IP ban is an ineffective way of banning as the majority of people have a dynamic IP address so a person can simply restart their router and they will get a new IP, thus getting around any IP ban easily. Even if they did have a static IP address there are millions of proxy servers they can use.
Email bans are similarly ineffective as people can just register with an alternate email address.
If people want to make a nuisance of themselves there is rarely a quick solution.
I have to agree, m
interesting info Baccy Man
Or could it be Lishka and Hyacinth. ???
I reckon one is the altered ego of the other, but can't work out which is which.
All i know is that if Lishka is deprived of choclit, she turns into that buckit woman.
;D
I'm with ACE and Rosebud and Redclanger, and everyone else who says 'ignore'. He only does it to get attention and wind people up - threads like this are precisely what he's after. Presumably.
We should just report any new manifestations to Dan for banning, click the lovely 'Ignore' button for all the existing IDs, and never mention him otherwise, except to privately warn newbies. That way, no reward for the troll...
life is to sort to worry about these matters , just get your spade out and Berry your troubles. (pun intended)
