Title: Username on other marketplaces
Post by: livestr0ng on October 08, 2013, 08:43 pm
I've seen this question asked a few times but it never gets answered-
Should we use the same username on other anonymous marketplaces or change it?

I was just wondering this myself, Im not sure if its been answered. I don't think its the smartest move in the world to use the same name for say your SR account, SR forum, then move over to BMR and have the same name on their forum and site as well. Especially if you're a vendor or were a vendor. Just my take on it, but then again if you want to keep your reputation.. up to the person I guess. Its better to be safe than sorry. SR is compromised and it could connect you to other things if the same name is used. Just my opinion.

That is up to each individual. Each case is different, and every individual has to make their own risk assessment, based on their previous Forum behavior.

If you have been remarkably indiscreet here on the Forum, and revealed what drugs you have purchased and/or taken and/or sold. what quantities, who you've either bought from or sold to, then it might be a good idea to use another name, to start out fresh as it were.

Thank you both. I'll definitely be changing my password, that's for sure.
