Pseudonyms

Folks,

Let’s chill out on the pseudonyms a bit, please? It was funny the first half dozen times, but it’s now somewhere between “tiring” and “maintenance problem”. If nothing else, it’s a trend that’s going to end up in an unhappy situation, and I’d like to stop it before it becomes one.

Yr hmbl moderator,

Rich, normally I’d be more than willing to follow the requests of the moderator but I don’t know what it is you are asking or why. Would it be possible and appropriate for you to elaborate just a bit? Thanks.

I think he means people registering with multiple names, just to post a couple comments. A pseudonym is a false name.

Yep, that’s exactly what I mean. :slight_smile:

Oh, I understand now. Thanks.

OK, Rich…IF that is your real name…

Tom “Federal Witness Protection Program” Wilson

Yes, it means false name, but Rich didn’t make it clear that he meant multiple names. I assume that’s what he meant. Is there a way of knowing if someone logs in with more than one name? Did we ever find out who ‘porridge’ was? Why don’t you just lock them out Rich? Why does it cause maintainence problems? What will be the unhappy ending? Will our heros make it through to the next episode? Did I have too much caffine before bedtime? Why am I asking so many questions? Will I be able to stop typing at the end of this sentence???

Yes.

Wyobadger,

You cracked me up. I enjoyed a good laugh!

Will the “Its Sickening” thread ever end? Will the “Food for Thought” thread continue its senseless, headlong plunge to new lows of civility? Did Gary have way too much caffeine today? How mauch caffeine is too much caffeine anyway? Why do Americans put ketchup on everything they eat? Will JessieK ever post anymore pictures of her cats? Will StevePower send me a free whistle for continuing the theme he started?

No
Yes
Yes

Not on everything
Hopefully ( I like Tonks)
Not in this lifetime.

I had this real flippant post going about true identities and Dan explained to me what this topic is all about. I am SO dissapointed! DAMMIT MAN! I bet he really did this to me cause I didn’t put walnuts or chocolate chips into the oatmeal cookies; and he still hasn’t gotten his chocolate chip walnut cookies…yea. That’s it!

I had no idea we had so many sneaky people using more than one log in!

There was Porridge, now A. Lee Ass, and I’m going to guess that Butterball, having only ever posted once, is a fake. Shame on you all. So that’s three.

I’ve got it - Graphics Guy and Archaic Lemons are the same person! Now that would be funny!

Any other guesses for multiple personalities?

What or who is Bloomfield’s dark side?

Is Sara just Loren on his lighter days?

Hey, I’ll vouch for Sara, she’s my buddy =)

I may be an a Lee ass*, some days, but I’m not A. Lee Ass.

*ass as in stubborn, willfull, feeling over-burdened, breying at life in general as I trudge slowly up the mountain.

Lance,

Mail me your old username, if you wish, and we’ll see if we can fix things up.

(You don’t have to, of course. Just if you want to.)

For the sake of clarity, what I would like to stop is the practice of existing users creating a second account for the purpose of posting things that they wouldn’t want to post under their usual username, or to use as a sock puppet, or something along those lines, or to pretend they’re doing something like that as a joke.

Short version: One account per user, please.

Poor rich you sound harrassed. You might need a vacation. :wink:

Rich:

Please accept my apologies. I was having my medication adjusted last weekend. Consider this my last post. Goodbye forever!
