He is posting different credentials in different threads which he starts - only to score points!

InSitu - 01-08-08 00:02 If you post a question as a guest you won't score points. This person did not ask his/her questions as member and hence point go to database uncollected. "ask_question" is made by the system when a person posts a question as a guest and its generic. No worries :)
