Can someone explain
To me why you’d want to go by a different name than your own? Like I get a gamertag or like first username you used or something but personally I just don’t understand wanting to be called something completely different. Genuinely curious since I don’t think I ever would want to

are you familiar with the weirdos that play on here? they'll find your address, call your boss... like
I went by a name that wasn't mine for my first few years in the community cuz I was prepubescent and then I just amended it when I was 18 but I understand how others who were a bit more notable by the fake name didn't
Fire your name isn’t fire????
username No my name IS Fire
well some of us were on the internet since we were 11 and did not want anyone finding personal information about us/our parents. The name I made simply has just stuck with me.
Brxanne this!!!! i made up Ess/Essence when i was 13 for internet safety and it kinda just stuck :) it throws me off when someone calls me anything else LOL
PureEssence still so shook your name isn't essence and brxan being not bryan has ruined my childhood
Fire LMFAOO i kinda prefer to be called that by anyone online anyway, it has been funny tho when my tg friends visit and meet my irls.....
PureEssence Yes bby literally the most iconic name boo
Brxanne I get that, I think my brain has a hard time understanding because my first ever and basically only username has Ethan in it so I never like cared since it was just my first name
