    It is common on forums that have a post limit before you can add links to make genuine sounding posts essentially copy/pasting the same sort of texts regardless of validity, to bump up the post count so they can then spam.
    The thrust of my post was more implying that one poster may have multiple identities on the forum . Not that I'd ever accuse anyone directly of that, you understand;)

    There are a couple in the credit card / credit rating forum doing this tactic of repeating the same thing over and over to boost post count even if the info is wrong. Suppose it makes a change from the Indian spam that happens every so often (all the ones including the phone number starting 91)

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
