There is a woman in another news group who has been trolling obnoxiously
for years and yeas. She accused me of nymshifting. She never provided
any proof that I had posted under any other user name, and there would
be none to find because I never have posted under another name. I may
have my failings and am likely to be in some kill files, but I am not
prepared to admit that I am a complete ****ing loser and change my
username to get past filters or to frog other people.

The irony in her accusation was that she was constantly nymshifting.
She would obnoxiously argue something and her ridiculous arguments and
fictitious evidence would be shot down and she would disappear, but then
some new user would show up, support her argument and use the same
refuted evidence. She would change names several times a week, sometimes
more than once in a day. The first time she made that accusation I went
back and counted the user names she had used in the last two months and
I stopped counting at 50. She tried to deny it but one of the funny
things was that she was so obviously the same person and the rest of us
would address her as her original name, or the nick name we had given
her, KKKaren, and she was always very defensive about that, but there
was no denying that it was her. So the irony of her accusing me of
nymshifting was pretty rich.
