What a shame that people cannot keep their own identilty in Babble Land.

I guess it is usual that people try to keep babble secret (or at least underplayed) to other members of their household.
Maybe Dr. B will let you guys have 2 posting names. If he can override whatever mechanism blocked you. That would make much more sense than two people to one posting name.

Otherwise one person could be 'gnepig' and the other could be 'GNEPIG'. or "G*N*E*P*I*G' or whatever. There are lots of ways you can mess with one posting name :-)

Alexandra K; Good idea. Very glad to see someone else that agrees. I guess we're MPD's! Regards gnepig & GNEPIG!

I think I understand what you are trying to say and it bears some merit. We are both new to Babble and joined when I went on Cymbalta to learn what we could about the drug and were amazed at what problems others were experiencing with medications thus we were hooked! But, I can't see who you are, or anyone else unless they provide photos as some have done, how is one person different than two in this sense? It would be nice to be able to see who we are responding to , but that is the world of computers. Maybe a new Board for those who wish to submit photos for a more personalized connection? gnepig

Perhaps you guys could provide some assurance to Dr B that you are indeed independent entities. If you have seperate email addresses then I guess thats as good as could be expected..

That's what I was thinking. Wonder why it wasn't reccomended earlier- it isn't that unsual for this to have come up before. You have been so helpful, Thanks, Gnepig

Anyone can post a link to a photo now, and we may have "profiles" here someday, see, for example:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/admin/20010718/msgs/1962.html
At your request, I've blocked this name and unblocked that other name. I think it would be OK if you both posted under that name and just signed your posts differently...

Thanks so much Dr, Bob! I'm so glad we cleared this up. IMP, A warning would have alleviated all this confusion because once I was blocked, panic set in and I was desperate to get back on. You might want to elaborate on this development in the rules of registeration if this problem is frequent. Sincerely, gnepig(posting name is now Phillipa-FYI)
