I wanted to get involved in the fan community,try to help get a sequel or whatever I could do.The more I got involved in the forums,the more I realized that some people are just brutal to each other.I'm actually a little scared to post sometimes.I'm afraid I'll post the wrong things and just get scorched.

Looking it up, it lead me to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondegreen A mondegreen is the mishearing or misinterpretation of a phrase, typically a standardized phrase such as a line in a poem or a lyric in a song ... The "top 3" mondegreens submitted regularly to mondegreen expert Jon Carroll are: Gladly the cross-eyed bear (from the line in the hymn "Keep Thou My Way" by Fanny Crosby, "Kept by Thy tender care, gladly the cross I'll bear") There's a bathroom on the right (the line at the end of each verse of "Bad Moon Rising" by Creedence Clearwater Revival: "There's a bad moon on the rise") 'Scuse me while I kiss this guy (from a lyric in the song "Purple Haze", by Jimi Hendrix: "'Scuse me while I kiss the sky"). Perhaps the greatest number of mondegreens for a single line of lyrics is for the song Blue (Da Ba Dee) by Eiffel 65. The actual lyrics are gibberish ("n da ba dee da ba dye"), but there are tens of possible mondegreens for it, perhaps the most well-known ones being "if I were green I would die", "in Aberdeen I will die" and "and I'm in need of a guy". In Stevie Nicks' song Edge of Seventeen the line "Just like a white-winged dove" is often misheard as "Just like a one-winged dove". The title itself originated from a mishearing of "age of seventeen". In an episode of the television sitcom Friends, Phoebe believes the lyric from Elton John's "Tiny Dancer", "Hold me closer, tiny dancer" is actually "Hold me close, young Tony Danza." In the CBS sitcom The Nanny, "The girl with kaleidoscope eyes," from the song "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" by The Beatles, is misheard as "The girl with colitis goes by."

I'm not sure that she's not RiverLove, but it was mostly meant as a snark, and an interesting and humorous possibility. They share a number of mannerism, I was just analyzing posts, that's what lead me to the conclusion. I was less serious about Whozit being Chrisisall, but again, not something I would completely rule out. I mean, if someone were just screwing with us for no particular reason. Neither of them are Finn. I can't say that neither of them are Auraptor for sure. If they are someone's second ID, it's more likely that a lurker is suspect. As for "Who is River6213?" Can I get the $1000!? Sorry, that didn't occur to me earlier. Ouch. Firsted. Pwned, all of that. Actually, I'm going to go with RiverLove is plenty crazy enough to be River6213, but not smart enough, no offense love. Yes, apparently we drove her crazy.
