Name changes.

I would just like to state for the record that I am all for name changes however...

over the last few weeks I see more and more posts where some people are using name changes to post quite malicous, nasty, crude, ott and insensitive comments.
I never say anything when people do it because some people find it quite funny on the other hand I get the impression it bags others off as they don't go back to post.

I've just looked on to another thread and once again there are obvious name changes going on (don't mean the AAA flounce one)

Am I on my own here or what?

I change my name fairly often, but only for fun. Might be "edgy" fun, but is never malicious.

Are you talking about me?

I'm not being malicious - honest! And I don't mind if you know who I am - it's just for fun while BB is on!

The good ones always come out and say who they are anyway and you can tell when it's one of RTKM's alter egos!
