Really?Then why are you using the same computer? You have the same ISP number.

Maybe you should say -elysa or -alexa m at the bottom of your posts instead of changing the name every time. Changing your posting name all the time seems deceptive, even if you're not trying to be.

what does it matter to you guys anyways? we are two different people who are on the same computer looking for names. we are not using the same sn so it should not seem "deceptive". and what would there be to be deceptive about?? this is a name site for goodness sakes!

Chill, and refer to the rules.

I actually find this a little bit of a strict interpretation. The rule says to "Post under only one name." Whether it is a friend using your computer, siblings on the same computer, etc., there may be more than one legitimate username on a single computer. It is also possible (like in my case) where one user may use more than one computer.I do understand that there may be a history with particular users that I am not aware of, butfor general users, I think it shoudl be understood that not everyone will use only one computer, and one computer may have more than one user.

The general etiquette here is for each user on the same computer to register under a different name and to always remember to sign into it.Array
