Apparently βMr Catfishβ (bloody hell that sounds odd!) wants to join Lemmy. Now where am I supposed to put neurotic overthinking gift posts about the anniversary heβs about to forget?
My husband joined when we had that lemmy problem to help me work out how to get back in. He made a comment and was so proud of himself (his first time ever on social media) until I explained he actually made a post instead of a reply to my comment. He has made no more attempts.
You need an alt account, '@totallynotCatfish'
Nath might get cross if I ask for a fifth account.
Just throw a few dollars to the fundraising acount and I'm sure you'll be fine. I suggest you go for something opposite your current name to avoid suspicion. Dogloaf perhaps.
Perhaps Nellie the Nobody?
If you call yourself Nellie all posts would need to be in character as a numbat.
Nellie seems to have rolled up as an Elven Decker. A ghost writer may be appropriate.
Having to do a seance every time you want to make a post could be very inconvenient.
Rusty doesnβt play Shadowrun.
Hahaha I honestly wouldn't know if you had a fifth account. I just wanted to help you get back into the account you had rather than have to make account(s) you didn't really want.
If you want a new account, I have no issues with that.
While everyone's accounts are connected to email addresses, I have to log into the database directly to query that table. It isn't a part of my regular UI. The only thing we use those email addresses for is sending password resets. I neither know nor want to know anyone's email beyond helping them access their accounts.
One of the other ones had no connected email. That might have been an .ee though. Anyway, if you can purge olds without much trouble, please?
Catfish? Who is Catfish? My name is Guy Incognito.
This man is my exact double!
THAT DOG HAS A PUFFY TAIL!!!
