Well sure you could, but your IP address would still be the same. The mods could ban your IP addy. I personally don't see the fun in it and couldn't personally do it. If you don't want people to like you for who you really are, then why post? And if you get off on playing mind games... that's a sickness by itself. A creepy one. And something I'd rather not ponder, so let's lighten up!

I have never in my life had a different I.D. besides candylv. Even on the Internet Movie Data Base where I posted regularly, My name is still candylv and I was respectfull even when someone hurt my feelings. I talk on the old sitcome boards like, I Love Lucy, The Andy Griffith Show, etc and some of the people get into fights over the fictional Charactors which is ridiculous and they would get multiple I.d's to stalk you on all of the boards to torment you. You can click on someone's name on there and see their whole posting history and I have nothing but respectfull posts on there. I don't see why you go on sites to make friends and have a good time just to fool them and start arguments. I really want these friendships online and the ones I don't, I just ignore or don't bother responding.

It is very easy to change your IP address just google how to change my IP address. Also If you have multiple computers, you can set up new identities that way also. And I say the more the merrier. Have one for each one of my personalities. I'll give you an experiment. Change your name to something totally opposite of who you are or change genders and see how you are received. I am an undercover investigator for the FBI LOL

Ya see thats some thing I don't get, Imda, if you're coming on to a forum to meet people and make friends as one person, why would you want to deceive them. We are here to have fun and to help one another not to trick or harass. I'm sure if that's what you are looking for there must be a forum or chat room out there some where...

sometimes it is done out of anger, sometimes it is to see if a person treats you differently than your other screen names. neither are really right and i regret ever have done it.

I guess it boils down to what you call "fun." I enjoy genuine fun, and genuine friendships, and that's what I'm like in person. It would be very hard for me to "be" someone else. Kind of like telling a lie. I find I can't do it, but I guess I would to save someone's life or the like. I often think that those who deceive on the Net do so in real life. No one can really truly trust them, and they don't trust others. Kind of a shifty way to live. And if they argue otherwise, they're only fooling themselves. Which is the biggest deceit of all.

And sure, damama... there's ways around things if you bother to look for ways to cheat... kind of like computer hackers. They spend all their free time conjuring up ways to invade and hurt others. Is that really the only way they can get their jollies? A pitiful offshoot of the human race.

Pepper I typed my screen name in the address bar and sure enough all my posts are out there in cyberspace. Kind of freaked me out.

I have to agree why would you want to use multiple id's if you want to make friends why not be happy with who you are I'm happy with me and I don't like the idea that someone would like to trick people and I feel like eventually the real person would somehow shine through and everybody would sooner or later catch on because I think you would slip and start posting as the real person and then you would be found out and the friends you made under the multiple name would probably not like that when they found out and I think they would find out. It's hard enough to be a real person sometimes why try to be 2 or 3 because you've got to tell one tale to cover up another tale and so on. I really don't think it's worth it. In the end you will be the one who suffers for it not the people you met and friends you made because you will no longer have them and eventually all forums or chat rooms will catch on and nobody will accept you no matter how hard you try because you can't be trusted.I've always been me and I will always be just plain me and I'm happy with that.

When ever I talk to people who had an alter ego and then they tell me, it makes me feel silly for not knowing.

Verrry good deductions, Ms. G... people don't realize how their own writing style comes thru, even if they're posing as someone else. They can make up a new name, a new life story... but something about them does come thru. With some it's extremely obvious right from the get-go, with others maybe not so transparent. But there always the feeling that there's something "not right" about someone using a guise. So others may be polite (rather than accuse) but try to steer clear. It always behooves me that they don't realize this.

Thank you for the compliment your moomaness I like you feel the same way I don't like to be fooled and most of the time I can figure it out pretty quick and yes it's best to steer clear of those who like to be in disguise because the real person does show through sooner or later and most times sooner. You go your moomness !

First off I did not come here to trick or harass anyone. I am here do to the merge and decided to stay. To tell you the truth I was not greeted very well from the jump with Ira's nonsense and that put a bad vibe in me. Now lets talk about bf. I have been posting for at least 5 years and as I got more involved I startd noticing that men were harassed all the time by us women. I am a psych major, so I decide to test my theory. I created another charactor and posted the same things that I was posting as myself. Sure enough my male counterpart was attacked and eventually banned.

This is when I started to delve deeper into the inner circle. It was/is very interesting how people react. I have been taking notes and some day plan on writing about my experiences. Now this thing with [EDITED BY MODERATOR] (lol) is typical, she has attacked Imdamama ever since I called her out for cheating on her dieing husband and lieing about her dog. She told one of my charactors this in PM's and I called her out on it. Ever since then she and Imda have been battling, but she is still friends with me also. To me it was more like a chess game, yes she took my queen, but thats ok I still have several pawns. As for making friends,

I have never been a believer that you can have true friendships on a game forum when everyone is not themselves. You can create bonds with those who post alike but true friendship is very rare if at all. I look forward to getting to know others here but I am not looking for friends. If we forge a kinship with things we enjoy that is great if not so be it. Well there you go a nugget of truth of why I started multiple IDs from me to you. Eat it up or dismiss it as goble t gook. Your choice.

well, actually on the rare occasion you do forge a friendship that lasts forever. I made a friend online in 1999, when the internet was new. About a year later, she and her 14 yr old grand daughter came from Missouri to Georgia to visit with my daughter, husband and me. {risky I know} but they did it, stayed for a week and we had a wonderfull time. She was there for me when my daughter passed and grieved along with us and made another visit in 2005. We love each other very much and e-mail all day and talk on the phone. I would never had known this beautiful lady if I had not taken a chance on the forum with her and my life would be different without her today.

Seems damama, you like to create a lotta smokescreens. Guess what. Some of us don't smoke, nor do we care to "play" with personalities. I was curious at first as to who you were at RA, but after all your personal pleasure at stringing others along, at this point, Charlotte... (you know the rest). Seems to be a lotta psych majors out there. They were the biggest classes in the colleges I checked out. Seems a lot take that when they have no aspirations to be anything (and this was by students' own admissions when talking over the subject with them) so they grab that instead, and some end up playing with blocks, er, people. But ya know, damama? I like you anyway. And I'm ME, and no one else. I learned long ago just how much hurt results from playing games. So follow the bouncing ball and sing along with Barney and Friends!

This is getting more confusing by the minute what is going on here. If you don't like it here or like the people you don't have to stay but let those of us that want to get along with each other and have fun do just that. If your unhappy here or with any of us you don't have to stay but stop with the unpleasant stuff there's been enough of that here already and this forum is'nt even that old.

First off for those who forgot where they were this is GAMEHOUSE, not bf so we really don't care what went on or is going on in that cornor, But if you want to play here then plez play by our RULES. For me Honesty is always the best policy!
And if in fact this was purely just research than why not just ask the tough questions instead of being insecure and unhappy with who you really are. Cus when you ain't happy with yourself you ain't gonna be happy with anybody else...case in point.
G, I'm so glad you iz still you...DID YOU HEAR THAT?
moo, did you bring the music...I think the gang wants a party..
