Title's kinda vague. I'm considering deleting this account and making a new one. Not because I said anything bad or am getting harassed. Just kinda feel like it's good practice to delete accounts sometimes, prevent oversharing. But I'm not sure if that logic is true. I'm just curious right now if the comments I leave have really made any impact on anyone. If this feels pleady, maybe it kinda is, I have felt a bit lonely of late. Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything if no one says they "know" me. not like I post a lot or have pursued tons of discussion here., and it's hard enough to get to know someone over an anonymous account when they're cagey with details. If you think this is just whiny, ignore it and the account will be gone soon enough. But if you don't, what do you know of one who drinks verdant tea before a crimson flag?

    You have around 50 posts/comments in total over the period of 7 months, so unless you constantly post incendiary things, have a particularly memorable (for whatever good or bad reason) username, or have some "shtick" this isn't enough for people to remember. I'll remember you now :) And I get the appeal of getting recognized, so if you are into that just keep posting, but I'd also not bet too much on other online strangers making you less lonely. It's a very temporary high at best, unless you balance it heavily in favor of actual people in your actual social circles--then you can have it all! :)

      I know for a fact I've commented way more than that, but it appears the comments don't stick around that long. Anyway, the point of this was just to see if I was recognizable at all. Following from the fact you explained to me how to become recognizable, I'll take that as a no from you. I'm not really banking on hexbear recognition to fix my problems in real life. I got way to caught up in other accounts, and will never do that again. I was just explaining what some of the underlying motivation probably was. I'm working on it in real life, but the main problem is schedules of my own and my friends so there's only so much I can do. Maybe the next account will post more.

        Ah maybe it's a UI bug. I checked your profile to see what i upvoted, but the 1st page is all that loads. You're right about not getting caught up in one account.

          yeah, you have to refresh a lot to get an actual idea of what your looking at, not really worth it.
