Although, this is true to some extent, we should always give the benefit of the doubt. Many users read for months before eventually signing up. I know with Reddit for example I don't even own an account, but I read there fairly often for information.


This however is a valid point. Considering the email which is public information on that account has the same name "fricks" as the original poster of this thread. Its likely that they are in fact alternate accounts of each other. Especially, considering the other piece of information above that I addressed that usually you should give the benefit of doubt too new users.
