Quote from acronym:

Well thats for him to know, and us not to care about, it just seems a big ask.

Let me ask it directly: Are you suggesting that Z10 was not a user of multiple aliases?

Hell no!

I stated it was unlikely, he is all those posters-i see no confluence at all in nitro's inducted assertion.

Unless you know something we dont.....

Quote from nitro:

If you want to figure out who z10 is, all you have to do is follow his speech patterns. For example, he uses the work "wanker" quite a bit. From wiki, we learn:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wanker

We then do a search for wanker on ET and can likely figure out Z10s many aliases:

We note that kiwi_trader is amongst one iof the posters. Kiwis are popular in Australia I believe. You can probably figure out the rest if you really care.

Since "Wanker" is a commonly used word in UK, Australia and NZ, I think this really only tells us that most of the posters who use that term are from those countries. A better way to find aliases by language patterns is to find a misspelling of a word, that is clearly not a typo, then search for others that have also misspelled the same word. When I was a mod, I remember catching a stealth spammer using this method.

How about using UK and former British slang and even spellings, i.e. "colour" to throw off the scent, all the while the multiple aliased poster is born, bred and lives in NYC.

I was sure this fellow was Longhorns

Wishful thinking?
