If you don't mind me, giving an alternative version.

There is at least one post of 'his?', which seems to be a personal attack against Dave himself.
So, it does seem to be a 'throw away'/burner type of account.

But I could be wrong.

Also, the attacking post (and/or rather rude), seems weird, if the user has only recently joined the forum and got a small post count.

I.e. A real new user, is unlikely to attack Dave.

.... unless they've been simmering for a while from the outside looking in and decided to register so they could air their displeasure.

You could be right.

This one, seems to be attacking:

This one is either attacking or joking, I'm not sure.

Limited information, so I accept, the evidence in this post, is rather weak.

Agreed. Judging by the adjacent timestamps, it appears that my addition "I reserve the right to change that observation!" might have passed your post in the æther.

It may well be that a (ab)user has chosen to be subtle, i.e. a good public persona, but a poor private one. I can't think why they would bother; certainly I could never bother to be that "subtle".

General observations are that nastiness begets nastiness, and the mods have far more info than we do. Hence I'm very content that they keep a tight lid on abusive behaviour.

Weston:
Interesting situation. It's almost as if one user getting away with worse behavior than anyone else on the forum leads to worst behavior from others.

Hopefully the mods should be able to resolve the situation from the logs. But presumably the offender is using Tor or a proxy. I think there are databases that allow you to default block most Tor exit nodes?
