I'm tempted.

Occasionally to get the ball rolling.
/Not the same anon, I swear!

If I were the kind of person who would reply to myself, I'd do it for this reason. DA.

yeah

no you don't! I would know.

no, but i'm too dumb to pull it off anyway. people would recognize me instantly. ~~(it might work if i remember not to say "oh man" or mention how drunk i am)~~

I say "oh man" all the time. Am I you?

haha, i don't know, anon. you tell me.

I'm too lazy to anon nowadays, but I've done it.

Only to get a discussion started.

Nope, too lazy. (It wouldn't be much fun, either.)

Though, one time someone told me I should try replying to myself (logged in) and see if anyone notices (because of my many, many icons, and the fact that most people seem to associate specific icons with users more than the actual usernames), and occasionally I'll think back to that and wonder if I should.

omg I wanna try that too

You should really do that.

Maybe I'm weird, because I'd totally notice that. My eyes skim right over icons...

elaminator - 2014-06-13 01:32 (UTC) - Expand

do it do it

elaminator - 2014-06-13 02:28 (UTC) - Expand

I haven't, since Case called out someone on doing it (while IP logging was on).

To be honest, I personally think that ruins half the fun of being anon, but we do have some really obnoxious trolls.

Then again, I end up wasting the most time here when there are trolls, to spend arguing with for hours... ugh. lol

Fury wouldn't do it, so I don't. I wouldn't be able to convincingly argue with myself anyway. But I aploud those who do, I think it's fun.

No, never, except if I'm correcting something in my original comment. If I think I've made a good point about something but it's got buried in other comments and no one is replying to it, I sometimes repeat it in another thread though.

Anon's tips for getting replies:
- Get here early. That's the biggest tip.
- Post in an active part of a thread
- Reply to a logged in user; that way you know at least one person will definitely see it because of email notifications. Also, I think people tend to be more likely to expand thread conversations starting with a logged in user, because they might want to see what that user said and who is commenting on it
- If you're really desperate, post a reply to yourself adding something to your original comment - when faced with a huge thread of unexpanded comments I think people are more likely to look at a conversation than an sole comment

But really, what gets the most replies are usually arguments/discussions that have been had many many times before, because they're issues that people love debating again and again.

Sounds complicated!

Watch out, Stella_down will be here any minute to tell you what a self-absorbed child you are if you admit to replying to your own comments.

(reply from suspended user)

Yeah, but...accidentally, a lot. Sometimes I agree with myself because I forgot I made a comment. :/

I've almost done it accidentally when I used a different icon from my normal one. "Oh, hey, they have the same icon as m- waaaaaiit a minute!"

Only if I have an addendum to a comment I've made.

Like this.
