If you are going to start a thread, provide enough information so that readers don't have to go on a scavenger hunt to find out what you are talking about.

Delete the thread.
I don't know which thread this is. Could you please provide a link? Also, what evidence do you have that it is false?
If you are going to start a thread put some effort into it. Your post does not provide any content explaining the topic of the thread. Posters should not have to follow a link to understand what you are talking about.

OP here-this is a great way to describe what I noticed. A level of anger that doesn’t seem commensurate with the comment that sparked it. And often the poster will issue a personal attack out of the blue. “You’re obviously the kind of person who…” — and then something that doesn’t really make sense.
She will post responses to several pps in a row in a given thread, timed about 3-4 minutes apart. Then there will be a similar run of angry posts on different threads in the same topic/area. I noticed it in the top 5-6 threads in the Entertainment section today and previously noticed it in a series of threads in Home Improvement, Religion and Politics. Seemed really to be the same person.
This will sound weird but the comments remind me of this girl I had classes with in college who was always making these out of the blue angry comments. She wasn’t a terrible person—she was just always pissed off—and trying to show how smart she was by disagreeing with and insulting people. I actually think it’s great if people like that can find some harmless online outlet to vent their anger. Maybe it helps them hold it together IRL.
Report the posts. If I notice that they are coming from the same poster, I will try to block them.

i don't have time to go through that thread due to its length. If you can report posts from that poster and indicate that it is the one referenced in this thread, I'll see what I can do to stop them.
Both were started by the same troll and now live in troll heaven.
There are a lot of posters posting multiple times but I don't see any sock puppeting. There are likely inappropriate posts, but the thread is too long for me to read the entire thing.
Yes, there was a troll who started many threads in that forum. I believe I deleted all of the threads.
I've been looking at that thread from time to tie and while it is very close to the limit of what I will tolerated, it has not crossed it yet (at least the last time I looked).
Okay, I moved it.
