I am not aware of her coming back, but I haven't been paying attention to check. I think she was just some weird person who thought she knew more than she actually did.

That's exactly the point. Without registration, it's very hard to tell who is who. Almost anything else can be spoofed using some basic browser tools, which makes trolls impossible to ban or out without inadvertently mixing in some real people whose privacy should be protected.


So are you the person who started this thread, or not? And if so, why are you engaging in the behavior you want banned?


You should be more concerned about your privacy. Jeff is so easily socially engineered by some basic trolling and a emoji. Registration prevents witch hunts too.



Why do I care if Jeff thinks my posts are someone else's?

Yeah, I mean...even I picked up on the overuse of that emoji as a way to potentially seem like multiple users were just one poster. But registration wouldn't really prevent what you're doing here, no?
