I can't see we need to provide anything different than what's already here. Each personality can and should fill out a separate sign up form.
BillWoodruff wrote: what if "Personality A," and "Personality B," post identical posts ? Are they then guilty of cross-posting ?
It depends. If they each post the same message in different forums from the same account, then that's cross posting. If they post from different accounts then it's not (psychologically) since it's two different personalities posting two messages. No different than if two people who knew each other posted separate entries.

Glad to hear that. I bet it's because we think at a higher intellectual level than these other guys here.

I agree to this line of thinking, completely. We are highly intelligent creatures who happen to have a great disdain for bad movies.

Nishant-ji,
That is exactly the beautiful subtlety of the problem-space outlined by AspDotNetDev's self-referential meta-post ! A problem space which, by the way, may be NP-incomplete.
I never said, in my original post, that our esteemed colleague was using more than one account; I raised the issue of using, or appearing to use, more than one personality, and began to explore the possible implications of a case where someone who "manifests" with more than one personality may wish to have multiple accounts, by accident, or by intention, and what that would mean for CP.
As it is now, someone who had multiple personalities which were "mutually exclusive," might have more than one personality register on CP, completely unaware that, in their other personalities, they had already registered: if using the same e-mail address for registration, perhaps even the same password: this would now be flagged as "using multiple accounts," which I think is against the code of CP.
Yet, suppose: that, in "Personality A," the person was a major contributor to excellent answers on QA, but, that, in "Personality B," the person contributed excellent articles, or was a major Lounge mouth-piece frequently up-voted for filling the Lounge with stale jokes over thirty years old ? Surely we would not want to lose either contribution ?
best, Bill

I got tired of the FireFox memory leaks (all recent versions), so I switched to Opera (V11.60).
And now the CP linkifier does not work at all: pasting a URL in a forum message does not perform any magic at all.
In fact, all paste magic seems absent; on the positive side, the rather annoying "Paste as text, code block, HTML text, ..." stuff does not show either.
My new posts won't have many links...

No, I don't like it much. Not sure why exactly. Google spying on its users all the time sure is a factor.

Fed up by FireFox memory leaks I switched to Opera and now CP doesn't perform its paste magic, so links will not be offered. Sorry.

I spent a fair bit of time trying to get Opera working then gave up. It's quirks got the better of me within the time I could justify spending on a browser used by so relatively few.
I loved the idea of a browser to keep the others honest, but if they could just pick an API from one of the popular browsers instead of adding more if/then's to the world then the rest of the world could support them a little easier.

I'm trying to clean the Tags list up a bit and I noticed that the question association count for the tags is not correct, as far as I can tell.
i.e. the useless tag "2007" has a count of "1" however, I believe it is used in 4 or 5 questions. I don't want to delete tags that are associated to questions but it is hard to tell from just the association count.
Hope I mad some sense here.
Thanks.

It turns out that a script we had running to keep these updated wasn't running. It's now running. Once run, it should be good.

I've dug. What I found was that you have specified "http://feeds.feedburner.com/thatraja" as your blog's RSS feed, when in fact you should specify "http://feeds.feedburner.com/thatraja?format=xml". I've updated your feed URL and you should (hopefully) see changes next blog entry.
