how important is proof and what would you do with it?

I have no idea how anyone could prove it. But if I could, I would remove these types of posts as spam.

i mean i might be able to dig through logs and find similarities between times, vpns, etc. we're talking forensic bullshit but i'd need instance level cooperation and it's work work, so i'd need money. it honestly doesn't sound worth it on either of our ends since my rates aren't really what you'd be looking to pay. i used to be an accountant in a former life, before my disability got too bad, and did a few forensic gigs a year.

As I said in another comment, I don't think OP meant it as troll bait. He probably thought it was funny and the trolls go off on it. They'll make up opportunities if they can't seize them. I do think "they" post stuff like this specifically to stir up shit, but not this one. I think it was opportunity trail bait.

and honestly what i'd probably find is the troll accounts' activity, and also myself when i can't sleep probably who knows what i get up to when i'm four days into an insomnia bender.
