I will freely admit, I was suprised when Clovis started posting, because I wasn't the one who created an account for my stuffed Devilbunny.
I'm kinda 'eh' on sockpuppet accounts. I can see where they will be fun for some people, but I'm also well aware that it can come across as 'Not enough people are paying attention to meeeee! Therefore I will create a joke account to post more stuff with!', and that gets annoying very fast.
Don't we have a "God" Account around here somewhere? I think it's even one of the stompies. Has that been cruel?
And the Zombie Robots, and the Ferrets?
Take it to lightbulbs!
Shoo!
I think there's a big difference between pretending to be someone else and making a joke. I thought the Universe and March were funny
I'm with Kristin here. I didn't know who they were (still don't know who March was), but they weren't being mean to anyone, IIRC. Didn't bother me, but it obviously bothers others.
Betsy, can you post the original proposal to get LB going?
Huh. Well, along the lines of this discussion, but not really related, I think I'd like to change my account name to "D. Griswold". Recommended nickname for fast writting: Gris.
Why? Well, I'm pretty comfortable using my real name here, and it matches my LJ username.
This is the right place for this request, yes?
Nova -- make a note of your subscriptions, because I haven't yet found the bug that'll erase them when I change your name from here.
Or you can wait until I get home, and I can do it from there.
Your call, just holler.
Go ahead and do it, I can handle the sub loss. I'm not subscribed to much really.
I'm on it, Gris.
