As it turns out they haven't; there's a typo in the user name as mentioned in this discussion. I just followed the link to the discussion in linguaphiles and it turns out the poster in question is nattybumppo, and still very much around. (I somewhat wish I hadn't followed the link, though. The comments right here would have told me all I need to know about the quality of that particular thread...)
Good. So I can withdraw the negative hypothesis I entertained about his/her behaviour, and apologize (if s/he ever finds this thread). But I agree, I have not gone back to that particular thread. I know all too well the kind of people it would attract.
