For those who post under more than one name...

[CathyCanada]

Just something to think about. People who may not realize that you are not new, spend time and energy welcoming you and encouraging you in a welcome post. How would you feel if you later found out that the "newbie" was not actually anyone new, but someone posting under an alias, for whatever reason? Personally I feel foolish and angry when that happens, so I'm asking nicely, obviously I won't demand it, but please keep the feelings of others in mind if you are thinking of posting under an alias.

Besides, inevitably someone will guess who you are by what you inadvertently let "slip" and then people get pissed off for feeling like they have been had. Then WE have to do damage control even if we don't want to because frankly, you are misleading people.

I'm not pointing fingers or naming names (and PLEASE no one do the same) I'm just saying, it's not nice, and please DON'T do it!
Thanks
CC

Groosch!

I sawrey that anyone should feel they'd need to dew such a thing!

If we all just be ourselves....and treat others as we'd wish to be treated...why wood yer need to register as sumone else??

I hope anyone who might have dun this....realizes their actions
can have a real and true painful effect on others.

Totally agree with you Cathy.

Does this mean I have to stop posting under my alias WebmasterCathyCanada?

I agree with you CC.

Wonder what's gonna happen to JasonLyons AKA Pop Daddy?

 

[charlie,nj]

OK we give up…we are guilty….

We are:

1- George W. Bush
2- Al Gore
3- Ralph Nader


(but come to think of it we don’t think anyone ever welcomed us to the DIS…they did tell us to take a hike though.)

You, too?

Je suis perdue!

 

[CathyCanada]

Shannon, you can post as CC and no one will ever know!

Does anyone NOT know that Jason is Pip Diddy?

Charlie, your aliases were harmless fun, I'm sorry to be cruel, but no one really thought you were Al Gore. Maybe Al Pacino, but not Al Gore!

I think I might've posted as CC already though.

I don't even understand why someone would post under a different name? Is it because they have something really personal they want to ask but are ashamed?

Good advice though CC! Thank you.

Or maybe to hound someone incognito?

... and I think some inquiring minds may have figured out that I was working both sides of the bench when I was acting as RMD legal council on the Jellt Rolls charges but lets be honest about our dishonesty, even with the powdered wig, it was the only way I could make a plausable defence...
