PsycicPsyco2 April 11, 2004 1:41 PM	So it might be in the future? Anyway, would you say that it's worth registering again to get a new name? The thing is, I use this other name everywhere else on the web...

if you only have 34 comics, i'd say it's worth it, especially if you have a name you use everywhere else and you want to direct friends to your comics. at very least, if you decide to keep your current name, you should re-register just to drop a couple of Hs in there.

When you search his name, why does it say "Brad has made no comics?" 2. Do a lot of the regulars have alternate/troll characters? Why do they do this? Do you think I should create one?

Brad runs this site, but doesn't make permanent comics. Or if he does, it's under another name. That's just the way he does it.

I'd encourage you not to.

A few of us have a bunch of lognames, but I hope it's not for troll purposes.

For what it's worth, I happen to have four. My other three were due to "mystery cups," in which this method allowed comics to be judged without the identity of their creators to be known.

I still occasionally use those accounts for comics I don't want to put my name on for some reason (for example, they don't quite meet up with the quality standards I want associated with my name), but I've never used them for trolling.

And no, you can't know who they are.

biped April 12, 2004 7:38 PM	Thanks for answering my questions. Although you advise against it, I can hardly wait to create an alternate logname for myself, although I plan to use in for posting the comics I make that I feel have actually exceeded the standards associated with my regular username.

I have various alternative accounts, one of which I am immensely proud of, I thought of a gimmick for making comics and it seemed to pay off. Even though I haven't made many comics under that name, it's still some of my best work.
