nattie - go on out him.

We cant have blokes wandering about MN pretending to be women. Grin

haha, he doesnt pretend to be a woman beenbeta (unlike some, or so i've heard), its quite clear from his name that hes in possession of a Y chromosome :)

YANBU
I have four names

  • one where I don't mind being recognised
  • one where i really want to be recognised
  • this one which is (hopefully) anonymous
  • an old defunct one which I worried wasn't anonymous anymore

I mainly use this one at the moment.

depends what you use them for.

if you're trying to cause trouble or scam people then yabu.

other than that, who gives a shit if someone's got 1, 10 or 100 different user names?

sock puppet accounts to disagree with yourself?? I like it!

nickschic · 05/09/2010 20:06

I have 2 names that I actively use (bet you cant guess? Grin and another couple for threads that I start that I dont want to identified on.

ValiumSingleton · 05/09/2010 20:13

No biggie. I should do that. I am too identifiable.

"I dont troll
thats not fair on everybody else"

LMFAO!!!!!

NickOfTime · 05/09/2010 20:25

i've got a few. i namechange periodically now and switch them about - started doing it when the twitter and fb buttons appeared.

they aren't 'secret' though, just frequent enough to make it a balls-ache to find out what i'm doing at any given time. Grin

It's a well known fact that there are only actually fifty different people on MN. If we didn't all have multiple personalities, the site would be shite.
