The IP and email address come up clean. Searching for spammers by username doesn't mean much since it does not identify the person, you can name yourself anything. For example, you are identified as ArchRival here but ArchRival at any other forum it might be you or someone else. When I see your username here I can be certain I know who you are. When I see the same name at a different forum it might be you or it might not be you.

I split your post in that thread off to locked. If you want me to delete it, let me know.

What sort of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

Trying to figure it out. The fellow is currently not making much sense. The IP does not come back to sinner although since most of them are dynamic this doesn't mean much anymore.

Depends on if he decides to share with us. Both you and I know that youngsters are insufferable to support.
