RE: dot - mixednutsmixednuts - I sent an email to Stockhouse which included that very question about 20 minutes ago, because if they can't stop it, it will have the potential to severely disrupt Stockhouse as a forum:
"I noticed a series of phoney Trashenstein1 posts on the PLE board.
I tried to "ignore" the name, but Stockhouse could not do so. How are the impersonators accomplishing this?
A short while later, the "real" Trashenstein1 posted that he had an impersonator.
A check reveals that this is true." (I then provided a complete listing of the posts by the Real and Phoney trashes.
