Busted!
. Thank you so much Hiwot. She has been trying to harass me, bdogg and Chomb trying to exploit the rift that was created on the old thread. I think she will still join with another account considering her past activities but there ain't nuthin that can't be handled right? 
Thanks Yvee in the old thread for being wise about this. U were right all the way pointing out that this must be a nu member. Anyways I am glad not to see her on AU anymore. Thanks again Hiwot.

One last thing I would say
One last thing I would say is that harassing members on AU and trying to fly from a cliff have one thing in common. They both end up in failure

Other lessons learned *
Other lessons learned
* Guard your personal information. Never trust an online persona.
* Proper communication solves problems - assumptions and conspiracy theories aggravate them.
* Think thrice before starting inflammatory threads.
* The clauses in the terms of service have very good reasons for being there. Reading them won't hurt.
Lastly, there are some really sick people out there with no scruples at all. If you are not one of them, run like Forest Gump when you see one.
.... really?

Admins should be able to see
Admins should be able to see what IP address the user is posting from or look for other common factors in their profiles. If you have multiple usernames from the same IP address, that's a red flag right there
the user happened to
the user happened to understand and abuse the dynamic IP in Etiopia to log in to AU with different IP addresses every time;
used other members' accounts passwords from either physical access to their systems or through friendship (which are parked at the moment);
and even used a proxy website a few times
AU does not use IP addresses to catch such accounts, most of our members come from the same IP and sometimes from the same computer from schools, offices and homes, some of you know was confusing for me in the beginning

That is too much cunning for
That is too much cunning for a person who claimed to be a highschool student. So cunning as to use a proxy website? If so, this guy/gal has a very bright future in cyber crime
In case you are wondering Hiwot, I use a proxy website to browse AU as text only because my bandwidth is so low (less than 1KBps on the average day). And I remember how we confused you (and ourselves) at the beginning
