Does the thread concern exclusively alts? Or can ANN Bumping related accounts also be published?
You're spot on with your observation as you'll read below.
Preferably I'd like to see "known" or "suspected" alts listed here - with proof of course. The example you gave is a fairly routine example (which we appreciate) of fake noise generated by sock puppets.
Just looking at the page you quote (
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5266054.240 ) we can see a mix of users with
Amepay the OP of the thread and
GBGglenn also making comments to the other posters (and they have the highest post count). If we were to look at all the users on that one page as a random sample, their registration and activity times via their profile page and also
bpip.org , we can see the following:

So a summary of our findings are:
- 22 November 2013, 00:02:39 Date Registered: GBGglenn
22 November 2013, 00:05:37 Date Registered: bouncebounce
Two users registering within three minutes of each-other seven years ago posting in the same thread.

Question: - What would cause two UID's that registered nearly two and a half years apart to then became inactive within five hours of each-other (and then post just six posts apart on the one page)??
- A new user LaraSamr is created and then four days later five UID's all wake up? Was LaraSamr created to buy these five UID's?

Summary:It's very likely every UID on that page is a sock puppet generating noise.
GBGglenn was identified by @marlboroza as running a ponzi on
2018-07-17 using this link:
http://archive.is/4GzpT I have not verified the assertion marlboroza makes, however it is unlikely Hasbro, the owners of the Monopoly Trade Mark would launch an ICO via this forum.
