Alternatives...............?

So....You create a profile here...mingle in the feed, share an experience or two, seek and lend advice or maybe just a listening ear.

Reveal a photo maybe.

In a sense, "publicly" your profile represents YOU.

But then there's the " Alt".

The alternative YOU.

A vehicle upon which the capabilities of your behavior will remain anonymous. Savin face an all that.

But really...that alt account IS the real you. That you hide.

I have no alt accounts. But on SW I have two different personalities. One is not liked by some. That person rises up and fights the political BS and left insanity. I have been better not getting into lengthy conflicts. The other likes the humorous and thought provoking posts like this.
Is there an alternate me? Absolutely and he is only meant to meet with truly special connections. He lives behind the SW personality and someone very astute may be able to see parts of him by stepping way back and looking carefully from a distance.

I have tried both way, looking back over the past few yrs, an alt account is the way to go

trying to represent 100% authentic Me in 1 account is just too much, it's better represent/ let people see chunks/slices.
Surely they're both the real you, just different aspects.
All my accounts on here have been the real me; some have just been closer than others to the everyday me that people see off line.

@ThePatientAnarchist If I had more than one account I'd be talking to myself. AND GETTING ANSWERS. Wahoo looney bin.
I only know one way to be, K. I don't know how to be anything other than my goofy ass.


I never understood how people can keep up different alts/personalities. It's different to have a quiet alt profile. That is quiet . Just never made sense to me i guess. But, hey. To each they own.

@Bexsy I don't get it either. I've received six nasty DMs....SIX...

Each one ..the same word....there/ their....is spelled incorrectly.
@Punxi you got a "fan" 😬

@Bexsy Yep. 🤷

I don’t have enough time to keep up with a primary account let alone an alternative. Despite some of my meaning I do have a life.

I don't want to keep track of another account.
I did that on IMVU, mainly stuck with one and soon forgot about the alt
Alts are no longer worth it anymore anyway.

They were useful for reporting people who had vendettas against you to the point where they were talking about you months and years after you blocked them... but not anymore.

My alts are just for lurking. And that one time I got auto banned and had to quickly get contact info for my friends.
Punxi · F
@SwampFlower More or less meant for a particular user.

It's all good.
I don't hide mine 😂

Punxi · F
@tobynshorty Right! Gotta be too much like work.

I just say what I say....my face in that box.

Punxi · F
@beermeplease I get it. Some however devise it as a way to be themselves....yet save public face.
