Visitor is a GasBuddy who signed up to be a member and chose the name "Visitor". Visitor received 100 points for joining and never posted any prices (at least not while logged in to a GasBuddy site). Visitor never did anything else to gain points. Thus, this GasBuddy still has only 100 points.
If a price is posted by a non-member or by a GasBuddy who is not logged in, the credit for that post goes to a Visitor, and the name stamp on the right side of the post says "Visitor". Since the site's software does not know that the post was made by a real visitor, clicking on "Visitor" will take you to member Visitor's profile.
So it is not one member posting prices all over North America, it is thousands of real visitors posting prices. Okay... well, it's possible that GasBuddy Visitor is also mischievously posting prices while not logged in, just to annoy us. If so, he/she has a lot of help from real visitors, some of whom cannot post a price accurately.
