Poll question: How many DU personalitites do you own?
By own I mean have paid for so that you can get a Star put by your name so that it looks like you are someone else?

I have one and that's it but let's get real here guys some people have more then one personality on this board.

One good one
One mean one
One funny one
One serious one

SOME PEOPLE NEED TO BRING THEM ALL TOGETHER AND STOP BEING SYBIL. PEOPLE ARE MORE INTERESTING IF THEY HAVE MORE THEN ONE VIEW.

1. I have one and only one.
I sometimes wish I had another one when I'm on here posting when drunk. Maybe you'll be seeing Drunkswede soon.

2. One and only one.
And for what it's worth, the Administrators discourage folks from having more than one viable identity on these boards.

4. If you say so. I don't know of any posters who have an alias.
I know ZombyWoof did, but he was asked to relinquish one or the other and he did so.

I'm just me
all the time.

Frankly I don't have the energy to split into multiple personalities and simultaneously post using them. That's more complications than I need on a chat board. :crazy:

6. Boy, ain't that the truth!
It's hard enough just keeping up with all the connections I've made. I don't think I could juggle the connections of two people and still have time for my life.

8. They screw up and I caught one but that's his/her business
When the person sent me a PM it was in their other screen name but they were talking about the same thing that I have talked about with this person for months. I was puzzled about it but I figured it out immediatly.

We have beene exchanging recipes for months.

I don't care if it floats that persons boat that's ok with me.

10. It could just be that the two posters conversed about it in pm's.
I don't think that would prove conclusively that they were the same person.

5. I don't know all of the posters either
Both of us don't know the whole DU family do we? It's just a question please don't take it so seriously.

What if you found out that someone is using another name would you ask him/her to bring the both together?

Have you ever PM somebody and they used their other name to PM you back?

7. You're being presumptive
about my demeanor.

It's not my place to ask anyone to change their identity. It's between the poster and the Administrators of these boards.

And no, I've never had that happen. And I get a lot of private messages.

9. They discourage it but
I can't believe that there aren't some people who have more than one for whatever reason.

14. Oh yeah, everyone loves Will Pitt here, don't they.
It's all oohhh Will Pitt is so great, oooohhh I just love Will Pitt.
Well you know what? Last night Will Pitt broke into my house at about three o'clock in the morning, snuck into the living room and nailed my cat to the floor. Then he daubed 'I love Satan' in his own blood all over my wall.

Oh hang on. That may have been a dream.

You would know how sarcastic that I can get and you don't want me to be sarcastic do you.

Will Pitt is one of my Hero's on DU and this isn't a sarcastic statement.

17. If I were running the board...
.... having more than one login would be grounds for banning. Yeah, I'm a strict authoritarian.

To me it is plain dishonest, especially to use multiple logins in the same thread. It is almost Republican.

23. I voted this time BUT this seemed to be coded to some person/ people
in particular.

BUT, I don't think I'd care to participate in any polls like this that seem to be personally designed against a particular audience in the future.

But I told everyone who I was.

It's nothing personal.

Don't have any interest in multiple personalities.

Multiple viewpoints, yes, but not personalities.

30. I am he as you are he
as you are me and we are all together.

On the other hand, none of us can be sure that that even adds up to *one* personality. Ye pays yer money and ye takes yer chances. Goo goo gajoob.

32. I changed my name at one point briefly
Edited on Fri Nov-28-03 08:11 PM by populistmom
At least I tried to because I felt like my personal space was being invaded by a family member who was questioning things I write and getting upset. However, it got too complicated and some nasty DUer changed their name just to harass me about what I did along with very complex choices I have had to make in my life for the sake of people besides myself, not knowing or understanding the situation, so I decided it wasn't worth the trouble. I can deal with the devil I know more easily than the devil I don't know. He still reads what I write at times, but not as bad and there's nothing I say here that he doesn't already know (just gets upset if I vocalize it out loud I guess). Besides, if I want to be more private, I stick to PMs or e-mail.

You're angry with SOteric over the chef post thingy and now you're not going to let it go. Why not just communicate with her and resolve it?

42. This whole thread stinks of the drama you imposed
I DO know what's going on and so do you.

Why not just take it to PM with the person you perceived you had an issue with? You did have one or more persons in mind when you started this. Why not just settle the issue privately without all this public drama?

44. Some People Seem To THRIVE on Drama
and will manufacture some when there's a lull. Othrs find themselves more comfortable in the role of victim, as doing so is a good way to decline responsibility for any mistakes made.
