When did you figure out
that you didn't have to sign your posts here?
I think it took me a couple of weeks before it dawned on me that my name would always be there, right above the subject line, and so I didn't really need to sign

1. I was a long-time lurker before I actually started posting,
so I guess I didn't have too much of a learning curve (except for the screwy DU HTML).

Heck, I'm still in the low 400s, but I've been (I guess not as) actively (as others) posting since about when the war started.

2. interesting
I've never signed my posts. I don't remember what I was thinking when I first came on here, but apparently I knew that I didn't have to sign.

3. What's confusing is if someone signs a different name
Edited on Fri Sep-12-03 10:15 AM by sybylla
I mean some people log in as one name, and then sign another at the bottom of their message. I never quite figure out with some of them if someone else is posting for them.

Eleanor

on edit: Eleanor makes typos too.

5. See, that's what I mean
How do we really know it's you, arwalden?

And where did you get that fab photo of Agnes Moorehead? She was such a hot 40's diva.

7. I've never signed my posts
I always thought that people would identify my by my screen name and click on my profile if they needed more info about me.
