TMB confirmed in the comments of his good-bye post that both RDT had been a satirical account by one of the regulars that I haven't seen on site in quite a while. The same person was (according to TMB) originally the creator of Azuma 2.0 but then lost control of the account to someone else.

It's hard to make parody of someone who long ago descended into self-parody. It was funny in 2016 and maybe for the first couple of months of 2017.
Azuma 2.0 is horrible. It's one thing to parody a public figure, another to parody a community member, even one who's a troll. (And she's not even as bad as her gang of haters, EF, or any of the other troll accounts).
