Lurker's "first" posts? Or all the same writer?

Is it just me or has there been a LOT of "Long time lurker, first time poster" threads starting with "before I begin" or " first let me say" & "Let me give you some background first" type threads?

The linguistic signature is the same on a lot of new member threads or is this a common mode of speech that I'm not familiar with?

Funny that you should end your first thread with the words "My first thread"... Does that mean that you also fall into "this category"?

I'm not sure what you're suggesting? That perhaps it's all the same person?

I'm just noticing that a lot start with the same preamble, same general structure.
Most join dates are the same as the first posting date, as well.

Yes, on my first post, after being a member for a while it ended with with me saying it was my first post. I think it is obvious looking at my join and first post dates that I am not "snowjobbing" anyone.

The feeling is there in my mind that there are multiple aliases posting several new topics but by the same author.
