Considering a new....(with clicky)

Nestie name.

I have been thinking about starting a new Nestie account because I think my nestie name is too obvious....and I'd like to be more anonymous. It's the same s/n for my email and it's also the first 3 letters of my maiden name and first 3 letters of my first name combined.....I googled kinmir30 and come up with basically every  post I have ever made....and that was kind of creepy....I thought if I was going to do it, I should do it now before my posts get way too high....although it's already grown quite a bit in the few months I have been here.

  • Before I vote, is kinmir30 an alias you use often and close friends and family know?

  • If you are really concerned about security, then... I vote yes.  353 posts aren't that much to make up, imo.

    When I googled mgoss228, it came up with a bunch of old posts of mine on TK, I have over 1600 posts there.  If someone wants to stalk me and read through all those posts (plus my 800-whatever here) LET EM!  But I have no shame Stick out tongue

    ETA:  the google posts weren't even in order, so they would have to be real desperate to find a specific post/topic.

  • If it wasn't associated with your primary email, i wouldn't probably bother.  But it is, so it seems worthwhile.

    In addition to google, there's also this site (and others, i'm sure): http://boardreader.com/

  • meh..i use jennlin for everything. but i'm not really worried because

    1) i'm not ashamed/shy of what i post.

    2) i'm still careful-ish what i post

    3)  it's not my primary email

    4) there are 3 other "jennlin"'s in the seattle area...that are asian, that are close to my age, and share mutual friends with me on fbook. 

    5) i'm too lazy to change it.

    Maybe I'm not a very good stalker, but I never guessed this.

    I voted to keep it.
