Gary, nothing new here!
I even made a post on the avbc board awhile back about certain posters having the exact same typo's.(Right around the time of the ratings games) The only problem is I have never been able to carry it to the next level, and use the computer to do the tracking. Only some observations about typos, and common syntax.
Very interested to see how you have that system set up.
I have used a combination of similar typos, and message log spreadsheets over the years to figure out who I thought were the culprits. By spreadsheeting timelogs (time stamps for a particular post), and then overlapping them........I could get a pretty good picture of how a person just switches from one alias to another throughout the day.
Of course, in 2000, I noticed many of those suspects were doing something different because their multiple alias posts were becoming more inner-twined, and some of them even posted at the exact same times.(really threw me a curve ball, and I thought I had been wrong all along.)
Then one day you made that post about having all the different computer screens in your office...... remember I went balistic on you thinking YOU were one of them. I thought this was the answer......that they set their sweat shops up differently, with just multiple computers, rolling their chairs from one computer to the other.
Sure is a constantly changing game of cat and mouse!
Been thinking very hard about that BOP proposal. Love the idea. We just have to figure out how to make some cash with the concept. Have some ideas there too. I think there is alot of opportunity in the arena with all the deception going on.
