This user just joined today and has posted 16 posts asking a lot of questions. She may be legit, but it seems like a research thing to me. Her ip says she's in Germany, she says she's in UK, but I know several put up false info on where they are.Like I said, she could be fine, but I think we should watch just to be sure. Thanks!

My personal issue is that she joined, started asking a whole lot of questions (doing research) and did it under the guise that she was seeking advice/support.That it wasn't until weeks later that she disclosed. Personally - it pisses me off that people poured their emotions out and this woman later told them what it was for. I don't personally take part in these types of things, because I don't believe I've ever come across anyone who can/does do research and papers without bias. If I had participated, I'd be pissed...because her failure to disclose made me more 'willing' to share - and if she uses the information she's learned BEFORE she shared, then that's just freakin wrong. I really dislike people who are sneaky and deceptive. I almost posted on her thread yesterday...but decided not to.

I agree that she has went about it in the wrong way and crossed the line.
I've pm'd her to let her know our rules and have also deleted all 8 of her previous threads telling her she cannot use those in her research as she did not have disclosure or permission from members to use.
I've informed her also that if she is here for both research and support, that is fine, but she MUST be very clear in her intention of threads started. If she is not, she will be banned.
