Hi guys. Long time player, new to the forums. I've looked around, and it looks like i've stumbled upon a wealth of information here!

Is there any way that I can post on the forums with a different account, or a different display name from the name displayed when i play?

I am pretty sure the answer to that is no.

You're not supposed to, but that doesn't seem to stop people.

No. That would be considered a second account, which is against the TOS.

Yeah, I don't wanna let all my weaknesses be known in the forum, then have that exploited in the games.

So instead you tell us you cheat, and you dont mind that that would be exploited here?

The alternative is just to list all your names here. and we will tell you which one to post under. Its the only fair way imo

Well I can honestly say I've only seen people that post on the forum on an actual table about 3 times, so seriously I don't think you are in much danger of your posts and your weaknesses having an effect in the game really.

By the time you take the sheer number of people that play on fulltilt and then the sheer differences in buyins that people are playing at you really aren't that likely to have issues of running into that many people that use the forum or remember you specfically at that.

This, imo. There are 20 000 tables open, so the chances of sitting next to someone that recognises you from here is really, really slim.

Not to mention, that the good players who could use this info, are probably playing at higher limits then you anyway.

IMO -When your weaknesses are discussed they are less damaging because you are working on them and improving. So really this weakness is something that an opponent may try to exploit but is no longer there, thus causing him to make a mistake. This is all assuming that someone on this forum is memorizing your weaknesses and hunting you down at the tables.
