I'm not certain who this person is either. From my time on this board, there are some people who post under several different names. One name is for the "thoughtful" posts and the other name is for a more "confrontational" or "intimidating" posts. This way the person can be thought of as a good guy and his Mr. Hyde personality can be thought of as another person. Bambi from what I can see, may fall into this category.

And there are those who get criticized for posting too much so they invent a second name and try to post under two or more names. One example of this is the North/Observer/B. Ginner/Cheruiyot postings. Each of these names is the same person.

And there are those who try to ruin the reputation of others by posting under that person's name. Usually the post is a gutter language post that is posted to make other readers think this guy is not to be taken seriously. I believe this is done because one person may view another person as a threat to their territory. Their territory being this board. A sort of "This town isn't big enough for the both of us" mentality. And a verbal fight is the result.
