John,

Maybe we should change our aliases to Brad's name and give bad advice on "Welcome to Silicon Investor". Maybe then he'd get the point.

John,

While it is possible to establish a duplicate alias such as "Steve" or "Bob", we do not allow users to deliberately impersonate. We terminate the account of anyone doing this.

I did a search for your name and could not find anyone else using it...

I do plan to close the loophole...it's a little tricky to do retroactively since I'll have to (for each instance of duplicates) pick one to be the "real" one, and then reassign everyone else (e.g. Steve#2, Steve#3, etc...).
