I'm calling it. You're an AI bot downloading data and posting it here. I had my doubts about the threads by Rodge the Dodge but this is beyond weird.

First post was plausible but third post is freaky so I'm with CdeG.

Reading the pair of your comments how totally wrong you are I have followed Roger Collins since being rescued 50 years ago and your assertions are unfounded The only reason I had learned of his whereabouts was when I came onto this site, Allt the information I have collated from a multitude of sources such as Aviation Magazines, Daily Telegraph and the Times and his own office when he was based in Wells Somerset so it is accurate.One way or another I will ensure Mr Collins is made aware of your suggestions as he is a thoroughly decent caring gentleman.
AS a new person on here I am not used to this reaction
A couple of things spring to mind here :

1. Do you mind me asking what it was that brought you to this forum and then this sub? I’m fascinated on the serendipitous nature of your journey here;

2. If you ARE a new person then how would you know how to be received?

And please forgive my manners , welcome aboard .

A good way to publish some positive PR to bury some bad news off page one of Google?!

You perhaps hadn't thought of just writing him a thank you letter?

Have to agree. Roger’s posts seem legit (far fetched maybe, but verifiable) but this is bizarre.

Looks like PH's needs a new rule.

No AI bks.

It'll mean the sad little trolls will have to start putting some effort in again though, like the good old days.

Do you think that we should inform Roger that his friend came looking for him by starting his own thread and generating a thesis on his life in a surprisingly short period of time?

It's a funny thing, but some of Roger's posts have disappeared as well. scratchchin

I have been notified by an old acquaintance, Charles Camster, whom l have not heard from for many years, that he has experienced some negative responses from posters on his thread. Having read some I agree and with regret l will withdraw from this site. It is a shame but thank you.
