Who is Dougster? Speculations (and accusations?)

In a brilliant place!
On another thread twentyfive asserted that Dougster is still here. If so, what do you think his current alias is?
Here is my opinion regarding Dougster: the guy went way too far and became too repetitive. But he seemed reasonable enough on those threads where he wasn't trolling specific people. It's just that they got rarer and rarer over time.
When I first started posting Dougster was largely picking on rickdugan. Let's face it, rickdugan is pretty full of himself and probably deserves to have a little metaphorical shit shoveled in his face. Plus, rickdugan was funny the way he'd let things build and then explode. Dougster would repetitively post "LOL!" and after a while rickdugan would lose it and post a 10-page reply. Ok, the repetitive LOL!'s was kind of a dick move, but you have to admit you laughed when rickdugan had one of his tantrums! ;)
Then Dougster started targeting vincemichaels. I don't condone what vincemichaels claimed to have done but it always struck me as a bit of fiction bragging that he trapped himself in. Regardless, he gave no indication that this was something he involved himself in. I just wasn't going to shit myself over something stupid that vincemichaels said that was probably fictional. But Dougster couldn't let it go. Moreover, I'm not sure he was actually appalled by vincemichaels' statements. Dougster just seemed to use it as an excuse to clog the board. That's non-brilliant! :(
I don't see anybody currently behaving in this manner. I suppose Nicole1994 could be a new Dougster character. "She" has gotten really repetitive and kind of boring. But I don't think so.

Dougster also seems to have a thing for posting as a witty non-chalant individual on some accounts and then sad and emo stuff on another.
Granted, troll hunting can be a crapshoot. But for example dougster is (at this time) suspected to also be txtittyfag, two_bits, pistola, Constantine, Trucidos, ProudLi eralHusband, taxi_driver, Baller_Biggie_Playa_69, Lord_Cthulhu, Meat72, and EchoPizza.
Not to mention a shit ton of other aliases. For some earlier dougster accounts, look up the posting history from these troll hunting forefathers:

...But it’s all a crapshoot. And I suspect there is maybe somebody else behind some of the accounts I have flagged as dougster. But whoever that would be is better at covering his/her tracks. So I have no suspects yet.
My issue with txtittyfag is that he was just so repetitive and stupid. Dougster was definitely repetitive in his insult mode, but he could write intelligent posts. txtittyfag is just boring. I don’t see the point in even responding to him.
I don’t care if somebody jokingly insults me or anybody else. Busting each other’s balls for a laugh is part of the game. If somebody doesn’t find somebody else’s posts funny by all means put that person on ignore. But don’t repetively insult them.
Regarding txtittyfag, anybody who repetitively trolls that much without ever varying must have a sad life. Nothing any of us can say will make their life worse than it is. txtittyfag’s greatest punishment is being txtittyfag.
Let him wallow in his own misery and get the small pleasure of insulting everybody whose life is better than his. Which is pretty much everybody!
