Same online ID listed twice

So, I have to ask, because it concerns me that this issue exists. I've been in lobbies where the online ID is listed twice, but the second name has a "[1]" at the end. A friend of mine says this is just to differentiate between two people having the same online ID, but when I go to mute them, it mutes them both. So it leads me to believe that some how they are generating more than one online instance. For example, I would see someone with the name "onilneID" and then another listing in the lobby "onlineID[1]". Is this some sort of new cheat? If so, I think Activision and InfinityWard should be aware of it.
Thanks~

It means they're playing splitscreen on the same ID. Nothing illegal in that. It's been like that from day 1, have you just bought the game?
Yes, I did just get the game... for Christmas. I just found it odd. Especially when I would someimes mute that person and both IDs would get muted, instead of just the one or the other.
Also when you're playing with or against splitscreeners, the game will lag like crazy.
