Important AE day Poll - Please vote

[poll]
A big old middle finger to you, stupid Nest.

Re: Important AE day Poll - Please vote

  • Ok...whats the best way to make an AE. Do you have to make an entirely new email address and nest account? I might be able to actually play along this year.
  • Friday, because who really wants to work on a Friday?!

  • God dammit. Someone answer my question.

    Fake email address, attached to new handle.  You don't have to have a real email address.  The one I use for Corporate Personhood has a "gnet.org" domain, which to my knowledge does not exist anywhere.

    Just make sure you write down everything on a postit or something.  I can't remember the login info for Debbie Downer, or Bvmpie.   

  • imageNaturalBlond:

    Sorry - yes! All you need is a different email than the one you normally use.

    Fwiw, on my AE account, my address is 123 That St., Anytown  and the zip is 12345.  So the Nest obviously doesn't giveashit about that part of the account information.

  • You don't need to even make up an email address, if you have gmail just add a period somewhere in there. It recognizes it as legit.

    Ditto all of this.

    My system for AEs is to use the [name of the AE] @ [myoldscreenname].com as my login.  Makes it easy to remember.

    Another idea (if you have a gmail account) is to use periods. The nest recognizes ann.smith at gmail as a different email address than annsmith at gmail.  Gmail recognizes them as one email address.  So, you can have multiple SNs off of one email address if that is easier.  But write down where you place the periods or you will forget.

    Also, if you use a real email address, you get the "please verify account" email.  If you click on that link, you have to wait 3 days to start posting.  But if you never click on it, you can start posting immediately.  The Nest is full of technological wizards.
