Hi Gadget,

What have I missed (though I must say that I didn't distinguish between usernames and posting names - an important distinction though not here?  I think that Gadget and Gadget. are different usernames, ditto Pels and Pels. - computers are relentlessly logical!

A bit confusing.

I remember some names from the past) and Pels./etc (yes Pels., I remember when you tried unsuccessfully to continue as the unstopped Pels ....),

Are there any Chatters who would like to tell us about their multiple personas?  That is, to paraphrase the subject line, about something going on that we don't know about.  Grin



If you look at the completely unstoppable Pels and her username you will
see she was very naive when she joined .. !  Cheesy

Twas that monkeys fault .. ! 

As for the other little soul .. that's hardly the greatest secret either .. !  Grin Grin Grin

Sorry AR!  Didn't realize you were so fast on my heels!

"Addled" - well, very likely so.  "Discombobulated" certainly!  Grin

It still would be marginally interesting if people with multiple user names (multiple posting names are easy-peasy) would let us know.  Wink

I started out as JudyP - then changed my posting name on all forums to JAP (my initials).  Solely because I thought that an obviously female posting name drew different responses vis-a-vis one which was 'unisex'.

Many years back, I did specifically ask Trystan if he would please change my username to JAP - but no response.  So I didn't persevere with my request ...

Cheers to all,

JAP/Judy

I think you must be JAP - because you are now misquoting me. Please look at the second quote of yours. it was Arranroots who said:

Hi Gadget (however punctuated  Smiley ),

You've lost me.  Wink

This is totally unimportant but how could a full stop or an apostrophe help you to
Quote from: Gadget
... avoid another Rootschatter for a while

Posts (whatever the username's punctuation) on the boards could still be viewed, and responded to, by all couldn't they?

However, if you didn't want to receive PMs, the easiest way would seem to be to put the unwanted poster on one's PM Ignore list.  Smiley

I have only one person on mine - and it works.

This is probably a thoroughly arid discussion - and best not continued.

Unless people with multiple alter ego user names wish to "out" themselves!

Kindest regards to everyone,

JAP
PS: I do remember, Pels., discussing with you yonks ago the advice you'd been given about your username ...  Ah well - things change and we with them.

As you say, JAP, it is a rather arrid discussion and way off topic so I'll lock the thread  Smiley
