Not if you tell us who the other three are Grin

VinegarTits · 04/09/2010 20:50

depends what they are and if you use them to troll?

CarGirl · 04/09/2010 20:50

I've got 2 that I use, can barely cope with that. 4 is impressive

Ingles2 · 04/09/2010 20:50

Are you?

AnyFuleKno · 04/09/2010 20:50

RegeenaPhalangee · 04/09/2010 20:51

RegeenaPhalangee · 04/09/2010 20:51

Am I you?

southeastastra · 04/09/2010 20:52

Ingles2 · 04/09/2010 20:52

as a simple type,
with just one name,
and one non existant personality
I'd say,
Yes
HTH's

BelleDameSansMerci · 04/09/2010 20:52

I've got one "alter ego" but I got such a bad flaming the only time I used it that it's not been seen since...

DuelingFanjo · 04/09/2010 20:52

Just four?!?

BitOfFun · 04/09/2010 20:53

What are the four personas?

Good, bad, ugly and...what? Why do you need four?

Jux · 04/09/2010 20:53

I have a name which I use when I am talking about something really really near the knuckle for me, it adds another layer of anonymity which I couldn't do without.

I've had a few other names which I don't use anymore - changed each time because I let out more personal info than I'd meant to, so permanent name changes followed, for safety as it were.

I couldn't manage 4, all current.

TrillianAstra · 05/09/2010 15:23

Maybe it's not good/bad/ugly but death/famine/pestilence/war.

KurriKurri · 05/09/2010 15:25

I've got ten names, that way I can answer my own threads so I don't look like Kurri-no-mates.

ethelina · 05/09/2010 15:30

Maybe we're all one person with split personalities. Maybe I'm you and don't know it. Maybe this is all a dream and I will wake up in some alien laboratory with wires coming out of my head. Maybe I'm a robot...

taintedpaint · 05/09/2010 15:35

I've had a total of four names the whole time I've been on here. Changed permanently twice due to getting a truck load of awful rubbish chucked at me over nothing, and a reserve name I keep if I need to talk about something a bit too scary to talk about under my usual names. Can't maintain more than one everyday name though!

BeenBeta · 05/09/2010 15:42

I have an alter ego that I use rarely for very sensitive subjects and its odd to be talked to as a woman. I even got cuddled by a thread full of feminists once.

I dont do it to deceive or cause trouble though. Smile

Lynli · 05/09/2010 15:42

Do you have four personalities, and do you agree with yourself or argue with yourself?

Quenbioz · 05/09/2010 15:45

YANBU. It's sensible to ensure your own privacy on the internet.

nattiecake · 05/09/2010 15:45

At the mo I just have one, but as hubby is on here too, I would create another for sensitive posts :)
