I want to add to my post

It looks like Admins can EDIT Comments- however, I have not found any data they can 'act' as a specific user just yet.

Sources for NING admin rights:
1) http://www.ning.com/help/?p=5568
2) http://www.ning.com/help/?p=4200
3) http://www.ning.com/help/?p=3369



More on this as I fact find and gather data.

Two options here - My guess, Satoshi decided to go with Option A.

A) Satoshi is responding to the madness so that there is no more headaches for Dorian
B) Someone hacked into it or found an exploit to write that.

Ning was never a reliable platform even in the early days of the Ning Social network.

Satoshi needs to speak up in the forums of BitcoinTalk!

can a site admin to such a thing? maybe if paid well?

I don't remember if that was a possibility. I've used Ning for many reasons back in the days because Ning forums were very popular back in the days, up until they started charging forum owners for it.  I do remember Ning not giving admins that much access in the first place about a year or two later, you had to pay to keep your forums up or something of that nature.  Other than forum modifications, banning users, etc. I don't know if this account was controlled by an admin or not, but it could be possible.

The post url from today does match up to his original profile url posted back in 2009

Same url: http://p2pfoundation.ning.com/m/profile?screenName=0ye0gncqg772o

We know it is the same account- so it has to be either A) it is really him speaking up or B) it was hacked or controlled by someone else.
