    I dont even use the same nick from torrent site to torrent site, if you do, thats just stupid. If you use the same nick, one can assume with some certainty that you also use the same password.. accounts easily stolen, and all because you want to show off to people from site to site that you are a part of the "community", so they know who you are?

    ha, if you were part of something and you actually cared, you wouldn't give a shit if people knew who you were or not.

    I always use the same nick, just with different passwords. i have nothing to worry about because i don't give my invites to the public, only to friends, how they are supposed to be given away.

    Speed it is a good point you make , I notice the traders recoiling in horror though I do use different nicks on trackers but like bunny anyone who wants to knows me anyway, but there is a certain amount of security in being anonymous to those who you don't want to know what communities you are apart of too....
    My friends know me from site to site, staff know me too so there is no reason to hide, but to the others I would just as soon remain anonymous........

    I use different nicks on all my sites, mainly for a change. I usually have pretty similar avatars though.

    i think it's not smart by looking on the security aspect, once they reveal your password on one site ( tracker, fst, mail, etc ) they have it all and it's a lot easier remembering different easy user names then different hard passwords.

    oh and staff on the site i use knows my nick here ( almost everybody )

    Do not pm me requesting for invites as i have none to spare

    i tried to use my same nick on most trackers but some doesn't like the idea that you are a fst member. but actually as long as you are not a trader you have nothing to worry about except in some trackers like bitmetv or x264.
