I personally have not been told this malicious and absurd rumor.  It is beyond ridiculous and so very very upsetting.  I have been a regular here at Itchmo forums since April last year and have followed Offy's heartache over Geneva, whose image resting in the warmth of a dryer is still fresh in my mind.  Whoever started this malicious rumor ought to be ashamed... as in very ashamed. 

Offy is one of the best researchers we have here and one of the most outspoken.  Having known firsthand the pain she has gone through I am saddened to hear that some one has insulted her.  We do have differences between us itchmoers and that is okay, but I can not understand from any perspective how someone think Offy is a PFI plant....where, when are the posts to give any concerns to this??  I have not found any ever and never thought this.....I understand how painful this can be and some days I even can't stay here long....I too would like the poster to explain and come forward --- Offy is too valuable to us and too important as a person to leave this forum -- she deserves the same right to stay here with others who feel her pain -- I know reading what others are doing does give me courage to do more---I have said that many times but it is true.  Before this forum I never questioned authority-I went with the tide---but the tide has changed for me---a huge wave of sadness entered my home last year and it is too big to fight alone and I want Offy on my side!

I just saw this thread today - unbelievable that anyone would do this.

Offy please don't go. We all need to stick together to fight for our furkids. You have provided so much information and support for the rest of us.  You are a kind and caring person - we need you.
