Jamie Lee Curtis said that the more she likes herself the less she pretends to be someone else. I think that's basically the answer. People who do not like themselves find great comfort in new identities. I guess the fact that they upset others is either lost on them, or part of the game. The internet is full of imposters - dating sites, political sites, sports sites, and yes even adoption sites. I don't think they so much want to hurt others as to find sympathy, compassion, or someone to get in a good fight with - all virtually. It's part of the lure of the medium. Caveo of praestigiator.
