I thought this was no longer possible? Yet there is a thread in relationships where the OP appears to have done just that.

Hi @GCAcademic

Thanks for asking about this. You're right in thinking that it's no longer possible for someone to post on a thread under two different usernames from the same account. However we've occasionally found that people have two accounts on the go - it might be because they've had trouble logging in using a different device somewhere down the line, so it's not always an indication that the poster's not genuine.

Once we're made aware of the two accounts and we're happy that everything's above board, we'll email the poster to see which account they'd like to keep.

Please report any such threads to us so we can take a closer look behind the scenes.
