Just wondering really. I often speed read posts to gauge interest and pick up on conversational styles or similar-ish names, and blur the owners into one.
For example, a while back Molgrips and Junkyard were having a spat in their similar writing styles it totally blew my little mind, and apologies to Kimbers and Binners – I'm sure I've replied to one thinking it was the other.
All the time.
Mostly because of second/third logins...
You all look the same to me (like ink blots).

Very good 😆
Curiously, Rorschach tests always look like murdered prostitutes to me...
I'm hopeless at spotting people returning under other logins etc.
Everyone else seems to know who someone is just from how they present themselves and I'm 'are they? well i never'.

Well, it's pretty obvious that you are Fred
Thankfully everyone smells different
If you're the only person that can't spot Fred, then there's a very good chance that you [i]are[/i] Fred
I'm often mistaken for binners.
At least until I put my trousers back on.
I can't spot Fred, but can assure you I am not Fred.
At the same time, I often read one of Mr Woppit's posts and think, 'Wow. He could really be me.'
Aren't you all Fred?
There's only one poster that I recognise just by his thread titles. They are [i]always[/i] about computer games. I have a little chuckle to myself whenever I spot one 😀
I'm [s]Spartacus [/s] [i]Fred[/i]
Binners / Molgrips, dunno why.
I was pretty sure Chewk was Fred. However I suspect if he was he wouldn't be given anywhere near as much leeway.
I'm useless. Can't spot Fred, don't really pay enough attention to the drivel to recognise styles either
There's only one poster that I recognise just by his thread titles
Me too. Always in lower case as well I think. 🙂
I confuse Junky & Cynic Al - not sure why.
Edit: I am not Fred
This is why forums have avatars.
lower case - yep 🙂
Yes, I can hardly tell the difference. It's the lack of avatars that does it.
all the big hitters, they have quite similar personalities, i’m sure they are all the same person.
Molgrips/Woppit
TheartistformerlyknownasSTR/thisisnotaspoon
Given who I get mistaken for Binners I am not
Every forum post should be anonymous else we risk the sycophants starting threads about each other.
I'm pretty sure i'm the only dog on here....
Woof
wwaswas and wysiwyg merge into one in my head, I think it's all the 'W's.

I'd spotted that too, RF90. There's a few others I can often guess the poster from the thread title as well.

Fred who?
Got accused of being Jamies love child once.
Didn't have any idea who Jamie was / is.
Do I win five pounds?
Also get called Percy quite a lot 😳
I actually resent Malvern Rider and sadexpunk for having names that, at first glance, I mistake for my own from time to time, especially when I am just skimming the forum.
In light of this, I would like to trademark use of the word 'Rider' with an upper case 'r', and any use of the letter 'x', especially when the name begins with an 's'.

No, because that is a good call by whoever said it. You are indeed Jamie ( without all of the gifs)

I agree absolutely and wholeheartedly with Fred.
You are indeed Jamie
'm not. Maybe Jamie'll be along in a minute to deny being me 😀
I have a picture in my mind's eye of what some of you look like!
Curiously, Rorschach tests always look like murdered prostitutes to me.
how does that make you feel..?
northwind and cougar...obvs they doesn't sound the same, but what they write...
Fred is Jamba (fact)

You poor lady 🙁 I'm sure you can get counselling for that
I get Hora confused with Donald Trump.

I too resent me for having that name. Physically moving away from Malvern just ramped up my ire even more. If only I'd known at the time. I really wanted 'Xamp Von Panzerbugger' but my mind was temporarily non-committal. Bah. Sorry etc...
I confuse all the forum member names beginning with 'J'. It has to be a trap.
I'm pretty sure i'm the only dog on here....
Maybe not 😉
Got accused of being Jamies love child once.
That would be me, an accusation I stick by. You also know far too much, to not know who Jamie is, so my suspicions are raised further....as well as an acute awareness I clearly spend too much time on here.
Edit: Plus, there are too many people with Kona in their name!
Unless Jamie is like sixty five years old then I'm more likely to be his love dad
imnotverygood - you don't realise how incredibly close that image is to a certain other forum member who I couldnt possibly name
Vegetable rights and peace! 🙂
What? Binners/me? I'm always contradicting him..
I'm always confusing everyone; there are about a dozen people who have distinct personalities in my mind, plus the people Ive met, then everyone else is basically the same. I'm always making an idiot of myself in arguments, and if I need to be careful I have to scroll back and double check everything.
imnotverygood - you don't realise how incredibly close that image is to a certain other forum member who I couldnt possibly name
Are you talking Junk...?
busydog - MemberI'm pretty sure i'm the only dog on here....
Maybe not
probably
Yes, for some reason & I'm not sure why. I always have this image of molgrips
Having met him, that image is almost but not quite completely unlike Molgrips. Actually, it's way closer to Junkyard.
.northwind and cougar...obvs they doesn't sound the same, but what they write...
I need to spend more time listening to Northwind, he's clearly an insightful chap.
Fred is Jamba (fact)
#jambafact indeed. (-:
I'm reasonably sure that we are Fred-free these days (maybe we need one of those "x days since last incident" poster boards) but positively encourage "retuned banned" grasses.

[s]She[/s] He walks amongst us. His cover is good but occasionally it slips.

Milli Vannilli. I think they were retuned and I don't even think it's them doing the singing.
If he genuinely does "walk amongst us" then he's managed thus far not to be a complete pain in the proverbial, which was his primary problem all along.
Please feel free to dob him in though. (-:
Ah, ninja edit, I know who you mean now. And I'm five nines percent sure you're wrong.
Aside from anything else, would Fred ever pay for a Premier sub?

True that
You only have to look at Fred's Faceache page to realise he's still here.
But how can you tell Fred's here, I'm truly thick because I can not tell.

😆 So so funny! I like! Make my day.
I confuse jambalaya and teamhurtmore because they're both pure right wing evil.
I think they're quite different, THM is half pretending and quite insightful, even if a little right of centre, whereas Jambalaya seems have been brainwashed and now just believes everyone is part of a left with anti-Semetic / Nazi conspiracy (with JC at it's centre).
Why are people still obsessed with "Fred" ??
It's you isn't it?
Why are people still obsessed with "Fred" ??
because it's so easy to type...
If he'd used Soobiliath or whatever then you'd get bored of typing it
I thought this was Jamby, never had him as a back of the tandem type though
Love the socks.

Don't know about obsessed, but a lot of his posts contained a lot of humour.
Also, the architecture threads were ace.
Mogrim and Molgrips
Northwind and thenorthwind
Wrecker and someone else
Ro5ey is a bloke, allthegear is a lady (from names alone - not rational I know)
Yes, there have been a few assumptions about gender. Pinky/The Pinkster was probably the earliest. 😳
Mogrim and MolgripsNorthwind and thenorthwind
was going to say those two as well
The thing that I really struggle with these days is the merging of the two alteregos of Davidtaylforth, I like both of them, and sometimes it's obvious which one is posting, other times he still manages to be just subtle enough that I'm not sure...I always enjoy a DTF related thread 🙂

❓
Sometimes I think I've been on a different forum these last 12 years or so.
slowoldman causes me the occasional senior moment.
I got myself confused with thenorthwind a while back.
All the Jims and Dougs may as well have a single login called Jimdoug

The David Taylforth thing has thrown me too.
Sometimes I wish I was cleverer, funnier and faster on a bike, but I will never be DrP

you'd need a far more gingery beard for starters.
Oh for the days when it was gingery, and not white!
I still get IR_Baboon and IR_Bandito mixed up.
Saying that, they both spout crap so it doesn't really matter. 😉

Just a bit of frost on my moustache.
