If I change my username, it doesn't change my history. This post you quoted here will always have "return_to_hades". If I change my username and people cannot figure I'm return_to_hades, then they are morons. In such cases, identity is just a few clicks away.
If I create a whole new ID and login with that newbie ID, then I am an asshole and coward. Unless there is a serious threat to privacy, stalker issues or a case of DT power abuse there is no need to create an MID. In my opinion only jerks create MIDs unless there is a darn good reason. I don't know why anyone would support MID.
Ok, lemme explain. Now that I know R-t-H is an intelligent person... not trying to butter u up. But I like ur posts. And u change it to whatever.. its like whatever.. the perception with UN attached is gone.. after a while I realize this is R-t-H.. and thats like hmmm..
Username is important coz we chose it.. if all seniors start changing their usernames, it will be confusion. The imortant thing is whats the msg and whoz saying it. Bcoz we build some reputation over time even on faceless medium like this forum.
So, ok change ur avi but if u change ur UN.. plz have signature saying ur previous ID was so-n-so.. we dont need to keep going to some1's profile to find whoz who everytime.
But the main question is.. why keep changing ur user name? And why mods allow it? Multiple ID problems become bigger.. coz no1 know whoz who!
