Hi Everyone....
Hope you are all doing good.
I was checking into another issue on the forum and notice there was one individual that had signed up under 3, if not 4 user names.
I personally don't understand why that would be necessary.
I would like your feedback on one person having multiple user names.
Thank You, Mary

They're probably someone who wants to start trouble or mess around with other ppl on this forum.

Yea. Probably a troll.
I'd like to know who it is, so I can more effectively discount their opinions.

Hi Mary! We've been wondering when you were gonna come out of your Shy United shell! I have been in that shell for a large portion of my life. Guess you could say I have become comfortable with it. No really... I have come to the forum, just not been posting. But, I do feel that the above is an issue. You guys have a Good Evening.... As Always, Mary

I've only been here a few months, but i feel right at home here.

Actually no difference at all. Just a bad excuse. Our family has been taking turns with illness, etc.
I suppose it is like anything else in life... once you take that initial step, it gets easier.
As Always, Mary

So... Can any of you think of a good reason someone would need more than one user id?
Maybe there is... I just am curious what that may be.
Thanks, Mary

Maybe they want to post something but don't want to put it under their account cause they are ashamed by the issue? On another site, we have an Anon account so they can ask questions without this problem.

I would just delete the extra names myself.

Well, wait a minute. I've given this some thought, and maybe the multiple accounts come from someone who forgot their password and screenames. If my password wasn't so easy to remember i'd probably forget too.

Are they using them at the same time? People are shy here, and maybe someone said something to this person and they're ebarassed to come back as themselves, so they changed their user name. We're all strangers anyway, but that's the only other thing I can think of besides forgetting their password. If someone wants to stir up trouble, all they have to do is log in as guests.

hey i do find this interesting and mainly i think it may also be that people feel they have to be a certain way. like some people have a funny screenname or maybe a more serious one. so like they have multiple screen name disorder. lol. no but in all seriousness, i could see people being afraid to express their opinions and use different screennames as a mask cuz its a lot safer than completely opening yourself up and being vulenable to strangers.
