That is surely a problem, but people who wants to cause havoc will almost always
be anonymous. However, I'm unable to fathom why anyone would want to use an
alias when there's nothing at stake. Even a double alias isn't unheard of. Maybe
there's an obvious reason to do so, but I just haven't heard it yet.

Best wishes...
