This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Sorry, you misunderstood - the change was forced, it's not what I'm referring to. I don't remember the exact way it worked, but I'm pretty sure they were pretty explicit about what the change is, at least.

What I'm saying is, you can go back to using your own nickname - I don't remember the exact process used, but I think the trick was to create a "brand account", which is basically an additional identity tied to your account, move everything to that identity, and use it instead of your private identity with your real name.
