Here's another new case:

Why is it, in less than 15 minutes, I have received very derogatory and inflammatory response to my posts when I clearly haven't been here long enough to piss people off?

Subset of new case:

Am I posing bad arguments?

How do I make the "stalking" stop?

Well, I'll present my case and see where it leads.

Exhibit A
Exhibit B
Exhibit C
Exhibit D
Exhibit E
Exhibit F
Exhibit G

Firstly, we must establish that Pam is not who she appears to be. As such, I present you with exhibit A: a similar set of Colin Dean related spam on a writer’s forum, perpetrated by one “Elspeth”. The hawk-eyed amongst you may have noticed a marked difference in style between the posts of Elspeth and those of our own Pam. This discrepancy is resolved below.

Now, it’s perfectly possible that there are two Colin Dean obsessed spammers out there somewhere. However, when you consider the fact that Dean’s philosophy is basically unknown (see exhibit B), this chance becomes negligible. Indeed, other than the publishers of his article, the first page (of only two) of hits for his name are on forums which Pam has posted on. So, in light of this evidence, I put it to you that Pam and Elspeth are ONE AND THE SAME!!!
Another fact we know of Dean is that he is Australian. Can we say the same of Pam? Well, let us look at exhibits C and D, in which the words shag and wanker are used; words which I believe are used exclusively in The UK, Canada and Australia. Not damning evidence in itself, but another point to consider in this case.
And now I wish to bring to your attention Pam’s unusual manner of speech. (see exhibit C or D) Perhaps, you might ponder, Pam is afflicted with some sort of grammatical impairment, or just plain laziness. However, this is not the case, as can be seen in some of Pam’s (and in Elspeth’s) posts on other forums. (see exhibit E)

So, we have established now that Pam is able to, and does, switch between unintelligible bad grammar, and unintelligible pseudo-intellectual drivel. That seems innocent enough in itself, but not when one considers that this is a quirk exhibited by none other than COLIN DEAN HIMSELF!!! (See exhibits F and G)
So now that we know Pam to be a false name and a few facts about Pam, we must ask just what is Pam’s true identity? Let us look at the fact that Dean is, outside of Pam’s forum posts and his own publishers, completely unknown. Is it then likely that the one person who happens to know of Dean’s work would be an obsessive forum spammer; an obsessive forum spammer who just happens to use a false name, happens to be of the same nationality as Dean, and happens to speak in a strikingly similar manner to Dean himself? Or is it more likely that Dean, the failing philosopher-cum-poet is resorting to advertising, and relentlessly arguing the veracity of, his failing work?

Ladies and Gentlemen, I put it to you that Pam699 and Colin Leslie Dean are one and the same.

Sounds like classic self promotion to me. I don't think he sold a lot of books here though.

Dear volconvo private investigators,

"Why is a raven like a writing desk?"

"Have you guessed the riddle yet?" the Hatter said, turning to Alice again.

"No, I give it up," Alice replied. "What's the answer?"

"I haven't the slightest idea," said the Hatter.

"Nor I," said the March Hare.

Alice sighed wearily. "I think you might do something better with the time," she said, "than wasting it in asking riddles that have no answers."

Bah, I was hoping it would go on for a bit longer than that before you guys figured it out :(
