Does anyone else struggle with having more than one? I was working on my tree yesterday and drifted over to the boards when I got stuck and accidentally posted in an account I don't use for the boards. How on earth people coped with several accounts for posting on the boards when there was a lot of that I can't imagine

Mel, wouldn't you just ask GR to unblock anyone you had asked them to block?

Havoc, I had to delete yesterday cos I don't want to post with the other tree account - how do you manage with not paying for it cos you wouldn't be able to see contacts trees would you?

jgee, I expect most people only have one but for adoptees and other people tracing two separate trees, it's not really possible to use the same account.

Arrr Mo you're breaking my heart;)

Uggers I'm too easily confused over a lot of things - much to my family's delight:)) Having two accounts would totally throw me.

Mel couldn't you just ask GR to unblock someone from your account?

Morning, my love:)) That's ok - at least your tree will make sense unless you have my Elizabeth Brown. I get hot matched with every darn Elizabeth Brown that was ever born in the whole of the UK.

I can just about cope with one account, I couldn't have two.

If for some reason I needed another one for another tree, say my OH's tree, then it would be on a free account. But as he's not in the least bit interested in family history, that's hardly likely to happen LOL

Uggers Report 7 Jun 2009 10:35

I don't think there's anything wrong with having more than one account, so long as you're not using them to mix it:))

Not a scooby Mel, never asked for anyone to be blocked let alone unblocked.

Mo, that was my trouble yesterday not concentrating. But I felt really sneaky so had to delete:)

Mel, probably tomorrow morning at the earliest. GR staff are renowned for having weekends off, how dare they!

Keep an eye on your email, they should tell you when it's done.

Course I didn't - a couple of very bland comments they were.
