Correct, the "i" is spoofed. A dirty trick.

It is one thing to sign up as, say China Dolly, a wind-up which is discernibly different, but to use a name that is so similar to the original as to require examination of the HTML is a low low trick.

ive reported as an imposter.
can everyone else do the same if they agree

How do you recognise the spoofed letters though?

Someone has signed up under CDs name, posted once when there isn't many ABers about then left it 2 weeks before re-appearing hence the grey name.
if you copy the text and then paste it into a word document its easy to see the difference.
type the same word again and then change both to something like wingdings and youll see that there is a different letter in there somewhere. In this case the "i" is different
View/Page source (or Ctrl-U). Do a find of the string "UName", and even if you are not sure what is going on, it is easy to see that it is a "funny" i.

As far as I was aware, the sign-up process was attended to a while ago, so this username may have been laying dormant for quite a while.
