In her defense, she hasn't mentioned anything about diapers, in fact, when DPCARE mentioned 'products' she didn't seem to even know he was referring to pads/diapers. If she is not a troll and is truly a scared 15 year old experiencing incontinence to some level, we are certainly not providing her with a place she will feel comfortable confiding in the long term. We don't know possible reasons for her delay in response as well, such as potential lack of internet access etc.. we need to believe the best until proved otherwise in my humble opinion.

Very well put. If this girl is dealing with all the things that she has mentioned, the chances are that life at home isn't pleasant. We are supposed to be a support group. I think that from now on, when someone is suspected of being here for less than sincere reasons, there should be a protocol in place that can better determine if they are legitimate. 'I smell a troll' is, bluntly, not it. In fact, it was insensitive. If someone is not truly dealing with these issues, that will become more apparent with time. I don't think we should be ready to eat them alive quite so fast as was observed here.Sarah060486 said:

And I just clicked on the letters IPat the bottom of my posts.
It says "The following users have posted from the same IP address as Erin. It is possible (though somewhat unlikely) that two or more legitmate users share the same IP address."
What andy1050 said is NOT true. The message that appears when you click on IPsays that two users have posted from the same address. It does NOT say that the first person is also REGISTERED under the other name. And it says that two users have POSTED, but andy1050 says this "Guy" has made NO ENTRIES.
I don't think andy1050 knows what he's talking about. It also says it is possible that two or more legitimate users share the same IP address.
So that means that someone else could have registered on this forum while I was using it on the wifi at a Starbucks or maybe even IN MY DOCTOR'S WAITING ROOM.
I won't be posting here anymore. If someone really wants to talk to me you can send me a private message
A**holes

The login page for this forum says
here's an active community waiting for you at the NAFC Message Boards. No judgment, no shame - we invite you to click below and join the conversation!
So yeah I "joined the conversation," but since I did it on an internet connection tha tsomeone else is also using to get on this forum, everyone thinks I'm a troll. Your all a bunch of idiots and you probably think Al Gore invented the internet
bye as*hol*s

You have a gross misunderstanding of how IPs work. Despite what the page says, it's not particularly unlikely that two users would post from the same IP. ISPs use pools of IP addresses that are dynamically assigned, often but not always organized by geographical areas. The fact that one user has posted from the same IP as another means they have the same ISP, not that they're posting from the same computer.andy1050 said:
I wish people would learn the basics of how things work before they make cruel judgements of others. We need less cruelty here, not more.

Well said @ltapilot.
I came here in search of a safe place where I could talk openly not just about my condition (incontinence) but about the stigma that comes with the condition.
I'm sure that I'm not alone in this, and that many of us here are wrestling with the stigma of our condition on a daily basis.
If even we, a community of the stigmatised, can't refrain from stigmatising another user for their perceived difference from us, then what hope is there for us to find understanding and acceptance elsewhere?
