It's probably you who's got Lauda on your trust list, because he/she is still not on DT.  Check your trust settings maybe?  See if you've got Lauda written in--you're probably aware of how it works, so I'm not trying to make it appear I'm giving advice to a noob.  I don't know what your trust list looks like, but the only way Lauda is going to show up as trusted is if you've specifically included him/her.

Yeah, but as I wrote in my post, I wasn't straight out accusing him of being QS's alt but wouldn't rule it out, given Quickseller's long-standing feud with Lauda, his use of language and empty threats, and history of using sockpuppet accounts.
