John Bradley clearly has a level of intelligence and can probably read what
we're writing right now. I'm sure that Bradley could easily attempt to
deceive us by checking every message to omit all typos, in order to try to
make The Number not look like its him. With a matching IP (apparantely) and
trolling background, I wouldn't be so sure it isn't him.
Its easy to impersonate someone just by using a spell checker, and we all
know impersonation is his specialist subject. ;)

User:The Number has now been blocked (multiply) as the obvious trolling
account it is. I did get an email from someone claiming to be its operater
emphasising that they could not possibly be Sollog, ignoring that that
wasn't why it was blocked. This person also wrote without trademark Irate
typos.
