If you can answer - just curious. How do you detect if a person is posting under different names??
I think I know the answer, but I would like to know if you are willing to comment.

Actually I should perhaps explain why I am asking this question.
Sometimes, it would help to post under multiple names, and I find it is a comfort that I miss.
For instance, I want to recommend my T very highly to someone living nearby in my area. However, if I post under the Pinkeye name, it will be pretty much giving me away since it would be easy to locate me. I would like to do that under a different name. In times like these, it would help to have an even more anonymous way to post - under multiple names.

You can register under a different name. Then go to admin and post 'I used to post under a different name'. Then go post your post about recomending your t (for example). Then go back to admin and say 'I'm returning to my original posting name now' and then do that. I think that is allowed.
But... If people don't know too much about you then they might take your recomendation with more than a grain of salt...
I might be off with this... But I would have thought that if Dr Bob is too upfront about how he catches people then that might get people thinking about other ways to do that that he might not have thought of...

yeah.. giving a recommendation as an anonymous person doesn't really work I suppose..
But atleast, it would be that somebody atleast had a good experience with this T.
