I feel we have a problem here.

If TheSheet (welcome!) is a spambot all these replies are a waste of time.
If (s?)he is an aspiring ecomodder we put her off big time. Yes her claim doesn't sound true to our 'expert' ears. She didn't follow the read, read, read, introduce, post protocol.
But you cannot teach good manners with harshness alone.

So, what to do.
I don't like the idea of scaring away new members just because they make some incrediulous claim in their first post.
Nor would I like to waste any time on some clever spam bot or trolling fool.

Do we have to tackle this issue in some way? Or just let it bleed out?

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
