You raise a great point. As long as we do not reveal personal information to a given poster, what does it matter? If someone comes here to play the part of an MAA or play the part of a 13-year-old girl, and they obey the rules, and we do not give out personal information, no direct harm is done. I think any such impostor will eventually get bored and fade away. The real deal will stick around and withstand the test of time.

I am getting better at sniffing out fake MAAs, but I am still no good at sniffing out fake teenage girls. I do not have much real-world interaction with teenage girls because most of my little-girl friends are under ten.

I have listened to WM's MP3s, and I cannot say anymore than that the voices sound quite similar. But I cannot see condemning Fayla based on that alone. For now I say this just highlights the need for eternal vigilance.
