Why are there so many people named SIM - 000000 here? - SIM-587985 - Oct 21, 2022
I was just wondering why there are so many people with the SIM username.
It just seems hella common.

SIM = Secret Identity Member
settable in the username change page
the number is just your UID.

It’s an option to “hide” your username by giving. Generic Eric default

It's a method for a member that's not upgrade to have a username change to something more anonymous. Of course the SIM-UID feature is available to all members but mainly designed for those without username edit ability.

It just means they're hiding their name basically.
