Note this post and the use of a very strange term, that Ancient Erudite also uses extensively. I don’t want to say what because I don’t want to make better trolls.

Ummmm no actually. I guess I’m not sure how to report a user. Would I just report a post made by Ancient Erudite?

If that’s not enough evidence to convict, you may notice some similarities here, also.

**doorhinge** is a giant troll, it seems that his dream is [to be sent to Greenland](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=724652&page=2)and become[unemployed](https://youtu.be/5kdJl8h2-XM?t=28). 🙂

Heh, wow. I would never had caught that, either. I’m sure I have a tell like that somewhere - so I’d never try to sneak back if I were banned from this place. You can make all kinds of tech changes, but you’re still you.

ETA: Hey, **bobot** , they could have both been paid Russians, so you’re not necessarily wrong on that!

I could easily sneak back. My elegant prose, perceptive insights and modesty are just like everyone else here.

I just reported that as possible spam. The username is a footwear site. The site is also in the profile as the homepage.
