Technically speaking, I am an alt :D

I first started posting under a different name (chosen out of whimsy) but then made a new account under my real name (this one) when I started working with athas.org and wanted to be identified as myself. I quit athas.org a couple of years back but have stuck with this account since. I pretty much never post with the original account anymore.

Not only do I have only one alt here, but I keep the same name wherever I go...and I've never encountered another person using it, so none of them have a number either.

IOW, odds are that if you see a "Dannyalcatraz" or "dannyalcatraz" on the net, its me.

Yep, same here. I find it just easier to have 1 internet name. My username is the name of my first D&D character (I was 15 at the time so I wasn't exactly original with my choice of name). I use Olaf the Stout on non-D&D websites that I sign up to as well.

Aeolius was the first screen name I made for AOL (AppleLink:PE, back then) in 1985. I tend to use that everywhere I go. Oddly enough, the Aeolius on Yahoo Groups, YouTube, Skype, and a few other boards is NOT me.
 




Oddly, I had never even really thought in terms of having multiple accounts for a board ... I have a hard enough time simply keeping track of who I am from board to board...
 

I made a new account once when I was having trouble logging into the forums, but it didn't work. So, I posted a thread using the default "I'm a Spammer!" tag they implemented in Meta a while back. Never used it since, probably auto-banned by the forum anyway. ;)
