Yeah but you might as well be saying that if your sister posts on mn, and your 3 friends from up the road, and in some cases your mum, cousins etc. Not everyone is totally anonymous. Just anonymous to you.

Lulumama · 22/02/2008 18:26

and even if you are totally anonymous, then you have an MN persona, that can mean you want to keep a certain image , for want of a better word...., and not post certain things in the name you are known by.

this is all a bit fishy

mrsruffallo · 22/02/2008 18:35

But I think people who know you may be able to work out who you are from the information you disclose whilst answering posts.
It is important to have the namechange option.
I have 23 different names
