I therefore I assume that it is me that the comment "people get suckered into signing pointless petitions" concerns, along with many of my other friends. This is an unfair comment, as everyone has a right to express their opinions on here.

Sorry I was referencing certain people, who are not involved with TiBB, who have included me in E-mails which urged people to "sign their name" to an e-mail petition and pass it on to X number of people. These E-mails also use some element of moral blackmail which is hardly ethical.
Even assuming the e-mail petition is genuine, they are not seen as effective campaigning techniques.
Sometime, however I have seen some of the more notorious ones end up as posts on internet forums. Those who may not have received them through e-mail, may not be familiar with them, so I flag them for what they are.

Frankly, I fail to see what your post achieves, as it has no constructive comment which is relevant to the original forum topic.

I seek to educate people about the darker side of the internet

I hope you respect the fact that I have reasoned with you, rather than hurling unnecessary abuse at you, and I also express my wish that this doesn't turn into a full-blown argument - I won't allow it to. I also hope that you do not resent me for this comment, as I believe that it is right that this is said to you.
