Shortly after this the Network people started blocking web sites, among them the log in page for LP (but not all of LP). Then about a month in, my cookies got deleted and I was perminantly logged out of LP from work. This meant I could view the Discussion board but could not participate from work. Yesterday, on a whim, I cruised over here to see what's been happening in my absence (too much stuff going on at home to LP from there lately). And lo and behold I notice sections I'd looked at as "read"... hmmmmm. I look up and there I am, logged in under my BASH ID. I still don't know how or why and I'm afraid to ask or it might go away. So... although I remain Autopia Deb, as long as I'm at this job my work day posts will show up from Bucky N Satchel, 999Haunts BASH Pal. Kudos to Pixie Glitter (and avromark) for not only noticing, but remembering my very 1st LP ID!

Originally Posted By avromark You know I was wondering if you could log on to Bucky N Satchel at home, so you can add "also known as AutopiaDeb" tagline to it, so that you don't always have to explain your nickname when posting from work. So you can still post as AutopiaDeb at home (If you ever have the time) and maybe have to explain who you are less when posting as Bucky. This just makes another fascinating LP quirk

Originally Posted By friendofdd I actually feel as though I am Satchel and Bucky has just explained this matter to me.

Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy I did too, and I caught a post by "Autopia Deb" in a Bash thread and hurriedly asked the moderators to erase it for her "hidden protection", lol. *phew*

Originally Posted By LacyBelle Good idea with the two browsers, u k fan. I was paranoid that I was going to post under the wrong ID during the Bash. I actually took a slightly different tactic on posting times, though. I tried to avoid posting under both names at the same time -- so that my Bashee couldn't connect that I was online at the same time as her secret pal. It was unavoidable when I was at WDW at the start of the Bash -- computer time was so limited. Once I got home, though, I tried hard to keep the time frames separate for each ID.

Originally Posted By Bucky N Satchel You caught me Haunts, I just didn't want to give up having a great Pal like you yet. (Seriously had a GREAT time bashing you!)
