You guys know me as Mike, but from now on I'll be going by JustV (or V).

This is partly to keep myself anonymous (you know how we're always talking about keeping safe online!) but also for other reasons to do with my identity and how I use online communities.

No stress if you accidentally refer to me as Mike - I'm not sensitive about it. :)
All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
The truth resists simplicity.

    Must now Engrain into my brain the new name …. Say that 10x over ;)
    Do I get a free pass for “Mike” now and again seeing as I sometime still get Millie 👀😂
    Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.

    Hiya V! Welcome to the communi... oh.

    I saw your new name and I genuinely thought to myself 'oh no, who stole Mike's beautiful profile image' :lol:
    It will take some getting used to haha. Take care!
    Believe in me - who believes in you

    Ha! It took me like three takes to even process that sentence once. 😅 And lol, 100% - the amount of times mods accidentally use the wrong names for people, it's only fair!

    You're good @Xee! Honestly no pressure, I've been Mike for so long here that it would be crazy to expect everyone to make the switch just like that. 😊
