Re: Multiple identities-have you tried it on BE or other forums?
I'm apparently a multiple-personality because I'm new and posted in a thread that got heated. :rolleyes:

Re: Multiple identities-have you tried it on BE or other forums?
I think we tend to forget that expats are not universally liked. We've abandoned our home countries for a better life in the sun. And often don't pay taxes in our home country any more.
That winds up a hell of a lot of people still at home. And then we bombard them with our new lives in the sun, blue skies on most days when they are lucky to see the sky once a week. The stay-at-home makes his way to his local and buys a pint of lager, a packet of crisps and a packet of cigarettes which costs him a tenner; when he gets home he reads on a forum like this that some horrible expat gets the same beer, crisps and cigarettes for a third of what he has just paid. So he sits down and writes something nasty on a forum. But he gets castigated or removed. So he uses a different name to spew out his hatred. And so it goes on. |

One of the most annoying things for me is people who have no access to info or detail just assuming that a screen name is a multiple identity, often because they dont like their post.
I have a lot of info to hand for checking ID's and sadly I often do checks on new members and old. There's a whole load of mods doing this right across the forums. Some multi names might last a short while, but most don't because (a) they are too damned stupid to disguise themselves and (b) we are more clever than they think :);) I am just glad the Mods have the means to know the truth. |

they go back faster than any they give expats a bad name my BH works in a multi-national environment with Germans, Dutch, Mexican, along with a few Brits and Spaniards, most have done over 5 years. The most senior are International expats, moving from one International job to another. An experience in another country speaks volumes on the old CV. there is one noteable person missing after making a few posts that you did comment on earlier....... |
