But then again, not sure I'm remembering correctly - but I definitely had the impression that it wasn't too easy to sort out members posting under multiple logins.
You can have some husbands and wives legitimately posting under different handles in the same house too.

Btw confused, if you're on here, that means I'm on here way too late and need to be going.

I don't think Vaughn is taking payments or anything of the sort. I do think he's a little starry-eyed around pros, though.
