I originally went with the same name but have been using this one now since it’s new and the idea of starting fresh appeals to me.
My initial thought was to reuse my existing name so others who already knew me might see that I’m here since we never communicated outside of the given subs we were apart of. I’m not sure how likely that would actually be though. It’s not as if I was anyone popular or well known. So, my thinking is I’ll stick with my new one and move on.
What have you chosen to do? Start fresh or carry your username over?
The original name I wanted on Reddit was taken. Here it was not, so I changed.
I think my name says it all
8^)
new one. I don’t like any consistent data to tie things together. When I talk about myself I regularly will change details or I will use conistant details that are not quite right. Like my birday. 01/23/1987 although I have used 01/23/1942 but that makes me a bit to old to be believable so I changed it.
This was my preference there but wasn’t available. Now it’s MINE!
I’ve been Takeshidude since I was maybe 11 back on Lego.com
Feels wrong to have any other name
I reused the username I originally used when I moved to Ruqqus 3 years ago. I’ve been all over the place ever since, and I’ve seen many of these alternatives inevitably fall. Ruqqus, Voat, Votal, Syzitus, Saidit is somehow still active.
It may be something new to many of you, but at this point I’ve seen enough sites shut down. I don’t mean to come here with bad vibes, but it’s not easy to be optimistic anymore.
I still miss Ruqqus from time to time, despite not sharing the opinions of a good portion of their user base, I never had a bad experience, even though I did pock the hornet’s nest a few times.
New name. Seemed time for a change/simplification.
Different name.
My reddit name was what I called the car I was driving at the time or making my account, many years ago. The car I’m driving now, I call The Attack Bunny….
I got my IRL nickname here, no need to reuse my random Reddit name.
Yes, but no. It’s inspired by my Reddit username, but I managed to get a much much shorter variant on Kbin, lol.
New one, wanted this from the beginning but was already taken on Reddit 10+ years ago
Hey, aren’t you that guy Raymond? Think I’ll remember you lol
I use this UN basically everywhere. Here is no different.
Replying to you. I’m brand new here and wondering how in the fuck do I leave a reply to the thread? The only reply button I see is for other comments not to the post.
The comment box is at the bottom of the stack of comments, so you have to scroll to almost the entire bottom of the page to start a parent comment.
You use the text box at the bottom of the page for replying to a thread.
