    Actually, you are correct.

    I had another account for a duration of no more than about ten posts during my last "missing posts/non-functional account" episode.

    I haven't used it since.

    There are people in here who use 4-5 identities in one thread.

    As to "What's the difference like?", I am a bit cloudy as to your question; I like to know who I'm talking to.

    The "easily confused" motif again, in the same thread.

    FFS, have you no shame.

    Do you do fake "hard of hearing" as well.

    Is it too late in the thread to ask why J2K4 would even consider spending time in a pub with us peóns?

    In real life do you always interact with people the same way. Do you speak to a child the same way you would speak to your buddy in the bar. Or do you have a variety of identities you use.

    My forum/bar personnae are completely interchangeable, and, though I said I am not generally disposed to a bar argument, I will not hesitate to engage in one.

    I don't generally encounter children in bars.

    I can use big words and/or wee, tiny ones; I can even blend them, once I'm sufficiently in my cups.

    Speaking of cups, I can drink a bunch of them, and a bunch more, without exhibiting the least untoward behavior or malice.

    Guillaume-

    You would not be made to feel like a peon were you to encounter me in a pub; I am as common as air, or I wouldn't be hanging out in a pub, see?

    High-class "pubs" bore me to death; no darts, no pool, no foosball?

    No j2, either.

    T'is funny when you have sussed out who various accounts belong to,and they are posting opposing views in one thread.
    Gets a stale thread moving though,so it has some uses.

    All spelling mistakes and grammatical errors in my post's are intentional.

    Kev and Les are trying to be real life people on t'interweb. They won't accept that this is an entire new way of interacting with other human beings. They are forced to bring their mores along for the ride.

    As to your first, I wouldn't have it any other way; subterfuge is for strangers.

    To your second, I surely do accept this is entirely new-it is the interweb, which I discovered only after I became a fully-formed adult.

    To your last, my mores are too firmly affixed to leave behind; I even shower with them.
