I'm sorry, that's an absurd assertion.  Take the following:

1.  As a non-player natural person, I register, and I have a non-
Player friend who reads the email list but doesn't play, and I 
occasionally ask eir opinion on a vote and follow it.

2.  As above, but e has access to the email account to post
the vote (with my consent) while I'm on vacation.

3.  E doesn't have access to the email account, but I don't have
time to read the lists, so I ask em to compose voting messages
for me which I (consciously) re-send as my votes.

4.  As above, but we write a formal contract good in the country
that we both live in, that I'll pay em $0.01 for composing said
emails.

5.  As above, but the contract states that e pays me $1/month
for the right to use my "natural" personhood (remember, e's not
a player, either).

So my question is, why are any of these "fradulent", and why
should Agora care?  To Agora, all of them are under the control
of one natural person who isn't otherwise registered.  Do we
really need to draw any lines here, and if so, under what
Agoran authority or interpretation of law or (to use your
phrase) Agoran theory by which this is fraudulent.

I'm assuming any of the above activities are performed "quietly",
eg., no lies are told, but the truth isn't volunteered, either.
