I will be name changing....

Not yet....

...see my master disguise??

Ah, you can still sock puppet...

Ah, you can still sock puppet...

Well, yes.

But it also means that if you inadvertently post under the wrong username on a thread, you won't be outed.

So, swings and roundabouts.

True... But they normally get spotted!

I don’t understand 🤷🏻‍♀️

Some start a thread under a different name , @GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat , perhaps because they do not want to be identified from other threads they are on , or for other personal identifying reasons .
However, they might post later in the thread forgetting to name change and their cover is blown .
Although they can contact MNHQ to change it . ( it might be too late though, and an eagle eyed mumsnetter will have spotted it .
