Poll question: Do you use the same handle for all forums you post to?
This seemed a simple question at first and then I got to thinking of all the variations and it got complicated.

For those who use a different forum and/or handle (maybe even on DU?) could you maybe list them?

2. won't list my other handle
I post on an adult forum. I'm careful not to reveal anything that would allow someone to identify me in real life. On this site I'm not so careful.

3. I used to but now I'm different everywhere I go.

I just heard my old username is active on another forum. The person who told me about it almost sent a PM saying hello to a stranger.

4. Different ones, but they're all me
I admire people who can invent new selves and keep them all straight, though.

5. I post on two other forums
That have nothing to do with politics but rather tech support, one for gaming and one for mainframes. I use the same name on both and it is different then what I use here.

6. All except DU.
Everywhere else on the 'net, I am "petersgirl" or some variation thereof (such as petersgirl66). In fact, I started out on DU as petersgirl also, but I changed during the name change amnesty because there were a few people I didn't want knowing my DU identity. That concern has become moot for me at this point, however.

7. I use different names on 2 other forums
They are not political and I didn't want to confuse myself as to which I was posting to.
