WebSleuths

Most of the members posting on Websleuths dot com can be linked right back to Patricia Griffith's computer. Websleuths is an orchestra of fictitious members all being played by one lonely person with a mouse and keyboard. In the end it's just sad music.

Absolutely idiotic forum. Everything others have said is true. The most childish, petty, inconsistent moderators you can imagine. This site serves absolutely no use beyond that of the comment section on an article and a showcase of the profound media illiteracy of a particular demographic.

I was timed out and then asked for a ban after *politely* suggesting that a misleading thread based on debunked (and slanderous) misinformation should be adjusted. "Do not tell us how to do our job! We've been doing this since 1995!" Yep. Websleuths: Slandering people and spreading rumors since 1995.

Come to this site and expect to be fully censored if your opinion differs from the fascist moderators and their militant cliques. They are the first ones to scream the smear "fascist" at anybody they don't like when in reality they exhibit all the signs of a fascist organization.

From the start I said the family of Debbie Collier should be left alone. I suggested self inflicted death by butane inhalation.but it didn t fit their narrative to proffer off of another person s suffering so SillyBilly a/k/a bullybilly banned me from the site and said that she was keeping the site s owner aprised of my "not swell" remarks. Avoid this site like the plague if you want to retain a modicum of your human decency...

Websleuths is not worth anyone's time. Controlled by sad, rude Admins and moderators who live to harass members. What people on here have stated about the person who goes by the name Sillybilly is true.

This is a ridiculous site operated by people who totally discourage any discussion that might shed light on a crime. Admins and mods spend their time deleting so many posts that conversation becomes meaningless and repetitive. This is not to say members should be allowed to dox suspects or attack people who have no obvious connection to the crime, but risk assessment means talking about what and who the victims have been exposed to. WS has the potential to be a thoughtful and enlightening group, but not in the hands of present owner and her jackbooted admins and mods. Plus she's having a feud with another presenter on YouTube, and everyone is expected to back-up her quarrel. The only good thing is that membership is free because participating isn't worth one red cent.

Why anyone still uses this site is beyond me.
I see Tricia is bull$#*!ting about not making enough funds again and the threatening her members that the server is going to go down unless she raises 2000$ LMAO.
The most bizarre thing is, there is actually people donating their hard earned cash to her via PayPal, venmo and cash app. WAKE UP PEOPLE! She has endless ads on her website, as long as everyone keeps visiting her site (which they seem to be doing, you can check stats online) then she makes her money through the ads. So why the F are you donating any money to her? She is using you. She is lying to you. She is a fat lying fraud who is out right now now spending your money on her self.
How dumb do you have to be to actually send this $#*! money?

I've been a member for 6 years, had a decent post karma, but every single thing I said they had a problem with. They apparently have a 'point' system? That they arbitrarily give you points on your account, and some stay forever and you have 3 strikes or some $#*!. CocoChannel was following me around, editing every comment, and I said 'people in Idaho are mostly conservative' Banned. Because apparently you can't say anything about politics? I hadn't posted in years and I guess I pissed off someone in 2017 and Silly Billy was asking why I said something in 2017...like why would I remember lol. Idiots. All complete idiots. Rules aren't clear and are arbitrarily enforced...also they get mad if you report racism. They are racist af.

Websleuths is a very wierd place to talk about crime and missing people. They will delete sourced information they do not agree with while leaving unsourced information they do agree with. Not really a site for actually talking about cases, just confirmation bias and mod bullying, might be a little racist to.

Logged on today for the last time. Intelligent members are being kicked out left and right, traffic is plummeting, opinions are stifled by the moderators, and the owner is only concerned with her YouTube channel. In my (close to) 6 years as a member, I have seen it all. Many members I've talked to agree that things have never been this bad. There is a climate of fear thanks to the Nazi like moderation of Silly Billy. I regret to admit that I have donated money in the past, but definitely never will again. Time for a new owner who actually cares about her members, and not lining her pockets with donations. This site could be great with a little effort and a lot of house cleaning. Good riddance.

This forum style site is supposed to be for people who have an interest in real life crimes. While the site does feature real crimes as the previous reviewer said, the majority of people on there jump on the bandwagon of 'guilty until proven innocent'. Not only that but it appears that none of the people who frequent this forum appear to have jobs, lives or families because they seem to spend hours dredging up things which they have no proof has any relation to the actual crime itself. Many times they write one sided arguments, forgetting what they write is published for the entire world to see online, without solid knowledge the people they are writing this negative stuff about had anything to do with the crime in question. If you try and reason or put forth a balanced analysis you are banned from the forum. I would recommend staying away at all costs!

As a new member, I was booted for not knowing the rules fast enough for SillyBilly. I've attached our conversation for your viewing pleasure. If he treats all new members this way, it's no wonder the site is riddled with ads and hasn't improved in years. (I joined the site in 2015 to leave a comment, I didn't actively use it until this week). I hope someone with some sense revokes his Admin privileges. He's keeping educated and well-meaning members out of the loop.

I asked websleuths to close down an account then opened a new one with a new email which I was using for a few Months. They suddenly banned me for having multiple accounts with no warnings or explanation. So if someone changes their email provider and sets up a new account they are basically banned from websleuths.
