I'm redwitch on almost every site. The main exception is my parenting board. I do post there under another name because I don't want people to think my views have special weight because I own the board. If I need to state a policy issue, it is under red (but my moderators usually beat me to the punch and I don't have to worry about it). Otherwise, I post under a different name but that is the only place I use two ids.

There really isn't much of an excuse for using a second id at a site except ego, unless, like Jan, it is because of log in issues or maybe to play a practical joke. Other than that, it is rude and is pretty much the old style of making anonymous, ugly phone calls. You can do it but it is pretty sophomoris.
