There must have been some pent-up need for obnoxious doppels, because it seems like every time I turn around, there's a new one. So the obvious question is, who owns each new doppel?
First up: stockmuncher100 (http://boards.fool.com/Profile.asp?uid=351999405). I think there are enough clues to make clear that this one knows a good bit about the culture of the LBYM board, for example. Yet I don't think this doppel is meant to be a straight parody or goad. Too many posts that aren't inflammatory in some way.
I only started noticing this one when it started spewing stereotypical anti-gay messages on AF.

Hard to say. Clearly one of the right-wing extremists, but there's nothing really distinctive about the style. Even though it's clearly a doppel, it's definitely not a match for the writing style of any of the really loud ones.

I don't know about that. CathCoy was BSC to the nth degree, but she was always entertaining -- just when you think she couldn't say anything more insane, she did. Consistently. SubPrimate/GS100 are not entertaining in the CC sense of the word. They're not creative enough, for lack of a better term.

OH YEAH. I had almost forgotten about ol' LC. I think you're right.
What scares me most is i don't know who the current incarnation of rickisme is. He came out as InvestMechanic a while back, but IM no longer posts. I suspect he was permabanned after it was brought to TMF's attention that he admitted he was rickisme reincarnated.
I'm certain he just registered a new nick and carried on, but apparently the new incarnation is keeping a low profile. Since he's mentally ill, i worry about what he may be up to.

Hmmm, I was thinking that maybe khalou and montecfo might be the same person. khalou has this annoying habit of adding a parenthetical "PS" to every post.
In other words, he'd sign his name, and then add a little comment under it.
I let monte out of the p-box for a minute recently (but only for a minute), and I noticed he was doing the same thing. I also notice that they were each spamming the AF board at the same time tonight, after the debate.
The only difference is that khalou's spelling doesn't seem to be quite as good. But he seems to be so obsessed that he writes huge post after huge post. Someone that nutty seems like a good candidate for a doppel troll.

"You must be referring to Trick who was called on that very thing a few years ago. Apparently a liberal professor who spent hours upon hours posting at TMF, cheating both taxpayers who pay his salary and his employer. This happens all too frequently, mostly from the left."
http://boards.fool.com/youre-one-of-the-guys-who-posts-all-d...
The above post is written by Jo$hRandall. (The $ sign is to block the search engine.)
Trick is not a very active poster anymore. There was a situation many years ago on Trick's posting during the day which was raised by rickisme. rickisme threatened Trick's employment so he was banned from TMF. rickisme was also a religious nut.
I know it has been suggested this Josh doppel is Catherine Coy but I suspect that this doppel could be the old rickisme since very few people outside the old NADA board know much about that situation back then. Whoever it is has been around a long time.

I did not know they could be deferred for four years and isn't the interest rate for unsubsidized loans 6.8%?
