anyway to check if people are logging in under different user names??

I just want to ask is there anyway of checking if a perosn is logging in here under different user names? from the same computer? Sad to say but there are people out there (young and old) who have nothing better to do but play on the computer, I'm the first to say this is not the site to do it. people here INCLUDING myself come here for SUPPORT.
I mention this because I am seeing a pattern with the way some entries our typed an formatted, In my profession, I am trained to listen to people and what they say. there is one entry here that seems to repeat itself, starts off the same way and then the middle and end go into the same subjects. (I am not saying what it is because I don't want anyone to shy away from writing their feelings. Just wondering if anyway to check this.

We had this dicussion about a year ago. I do agree that some posters most probably have 2 names. Just some. Most are genuine posters. But you can see from the way they write and in some cases phrases used, etc, etc. I would say we have a few doubles.

If you use firefox (I don't) the program includes a type of spellcheck.

Look at how long the person has been a member though.  I think most of the longtime members don't screw around with multiple accounts as, for better or worse, we are proud of who we are.

The only ones who have that ability are the MH people. They have each of our email addresses which, naturally, lists an IP name/number...........whatever, so they do possess the information needed to find out if someone is posting under different usernames. The rest of us are just out here in the dark.
Why do you wonder this?
