WildflowerMom Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I deleted my old acct! My ds moved out and our computers are switched around, so for privacy reasons, I just deleted... I need to be more careful anyway about everything I divulge. I tend to be an open book. 😱😆 Anywho, it's me (look at my siggy!) 🙋🏻♀️ 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I like that you put who you used to be in your signature, although I would also understand not doing it if you are trying to be more private. I wish more people who came back with new names due to problems with the forum login/passwords would do something similar. It's disorienting to have someone who appears to be completely new commenting (and sometimes arguing with people) like a long-time poster. A quick note in the siggie or even the line under user name (forget what that's called, status maybe?) would be helpful. 9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drama Llama Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Can someone who can see signatures either post directions on how to see them or send me a PM so I know who this is? I've been yelled at before for not knowing things that are in a siggie, but I don't even know what they are or where I'd look to read one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go to Account Settings, pick "signature" from the list on the left and see if you have them turned on. You'll see "View signatures?" with an option to turn them off or on.

A quick note in the siggie or even the line under user name (forget what that's called, status maybe?) would be helpful. Well, sometimes people leave under duress due to the way a post shaped up. So then, I can understand the purpose of coming on as if they are a new member, with no reference to their former ID. It doesn’t seem like it ever works, though, due to a recognizable style and/or content hints. Pretty soon, we’re saying, “Hey, I remember that poster who was always arguing that the earth is flat...and she described her hairstyle as “an Airdale Terrier’s bad hair day,” and so is this new poster...” 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know that our laptop that I used some is going back and forth between houses and wanted to be on the safe side. This is the only site that I get lax about privacy because I’ve been around so long and it is so familiar to me, so I thought I’d just delete and start over, just in case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly that's not an issue, but once in a while it's clear that the computer would be better. Edited March 28, 2021 by Innisfree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
