Date: 2011-10-05 12:35 pm (UTC)but if LJ ever instituted a policy forcing me to give up my handle, all of my fun would end. I think it would be pretty much the end of LJ overnight. Fandom is such a huge part of LJ that they'd be whacked to try and bring real-life-only into the equation. I carry my online ID around to other sites now, and it's become an important part of who I am.
