'New' dopers who's name makes you think they are 'old' dopers.

In My Humble Opinion
1

This keeps happening to me lately. I see a post from a doper. I look at the name and recognise it (loosely) as one of the pre-2002 10,000+ post count dopers. Then I look to the right and see that they have about 200 posts and registered within the last 5 months.

Anyone else experiencing this phenomenon?

And if you are lucky enough to have experienced it recently who is the doper?
The most recent for me was Why Not. I could swear that doper has been here forever, but he/she registered about 3 months ago and has around 200 posts.

Maybe in this case I am mistaking Why Not for AskNott subconsciously. Maybe that’s the case in all instances of this phenomenon. Even so, the question(s) stand.

Sauron and WeRSauron.

Can’t tell 'em apart.

3

Liberal and Libertarian.

4

Hamirad-Sol and Hamadryad.

If you are being serious my reply is: You do realise they are the same person right? The latter got his name changed to the former.

If you were joking: I didn’t reply.

Harimad-sol. Not Hamirad-sol. Sorry 'bout that.

…and there is now a new member with the name Libertarian. Thus my confusion.

Ah, I forgot about that. Do the same thing until I look at the post count.

“I do the same thing…”

There is?

What’s it like?
