The Man Cave

This is My Last Post.... Time for a Change

Jlsplatts@jlsplatts (70)2091d

When I created this account years back I had all intentions of My Wife and I sharing the account. Sounds a little weird but when you are married you share everything... well almost everything. The first account I made, I lost the password... oops my bad. The. I created this one. As time went on I realized that wasn’t gonna happen and could get really confusing, so I just rolled with this account name @jlsplatts. J - Being the first letter in my name Jeff and L being the first letter in my wife’s name Leah, and of course Splatts the family nickname that has been around for generations. Mainly because people didn’t want to say the whole thing. Nor did the little ones want to say, “Let’s go to Grandma and Grandpa Splattstoesser’s house.” Nope just Splatts

Call me weird but the whole jl in front of Splatts got to be annoying... For real, check it out for yourself, type Splatts on the keyboard. It just flows doesn’t it? Now add jl in front... okay I am weird I know but aren’t we all a little weird in our own way?... Right?!?

Then came the account @splatts that I used to avoid auto-votes while posting on Appics. Short stupid videos and random photos didn’t deserve the auto-votes I was getting on this account. I kept this account as my “blogging” account and used @splatts as my “shit-posting” account of you will. Then along came Hive... I attempted to keep it this was but it didn’t work out like that. Posting using 2 accounts felt like I was milking rewards. I have a guilty conscience what can I say. Even though I rarely, if ever posted on each account on the same day I still felt that way. Plus, I have enough on my plate as it is and don’t need to juggle 2 accounts.

The back of my sports jerseys never said Splattstoesser it was always Splatts. Probably because it wouldn’t fit and if they made it fit it would just look like a line across the back from a distance. Being a big sports family growing up, my 3 older brothers and I were just knows as the Splatts Boys

Oh ya if you are wondering how to say it, just sound it out....

Splatts - Toes - Sir

Wow, Did this post turn in some weird direction??? I just planned on saying I wasn’t going to be posting from this account anymore and instead will be posting from my @splatts account. Then it turned in to some Splattstoesser history-nickname-Family stuff... How much coffee have I had this morning??? Daaaang

I have been called Splatts my whole life and being called jlsplatts on Hive just ain’t jivin’. Even my autocorrect on my phone gets messed up. I try and write Splatts and it suggests jlsplatts. This madness has to stop. When your autocorrect gets confused then you know there is some serious issues... 🤔🤔

I have been slowly following people with @splatts in order to get my feed dialed in. @jlsplatts will follow all @splatts manual votes including those on comments. I will continue to reblog @splatts posts with @jlsplatts for a bit but that will soon stop. So if you would like to continue to see the non-sense I post, head over to @splatts and give me a follow.

Well I better get these 2 tri-tips seasoned up for some good ol’ bbq action tonight.

Until Next Time... Hive On and

Catch you on The Splatts Side

Good bye @jlsplatts jlsplatts was nice knowing you// Hello just keeping it simple @splatts.. Enjoy your high wire life on this Hive thing.. All good except for the unnecessary down voting..
@ctrpch(72)· 902d
Hi @jlsplatts and @splatts I just wanted to touch base with you to ask for a witness vote. I am a new witness and trying to work my way up the ranking, like all of us outside the top 20.

I run my own my hardware, hosted here in Adelaide, and support all our local communities. Thanks again.
@ablaze(76)· 1266d
Ah right makes sense, I've just started following @splatts now too. Nice idea to try to have an account for both yourself and Leah though. Your heart was in the right place.
@katirayo(63)· 1576d
Well i have never lost mine before and i pray I don't lol thanks for sharing and thanks for supporting.

Why did you downvote this post ? It’s just a Survey question about COVID and COVID Vaccine... it looks like you want to hide the Truth ???? https://hive.blog/hive-150329/@offgridlife/pob-survey-anyone-you-know-get-sick-from-the-covid-vaccine-anyone-you-know-die-from-covid

Buen día amigo, saludos fraternos, he recibido un voto negativo a travez de esta cuenta y no encuentro el movito, por aquí dejo la publicación para que verifique, aunque vi que ya no usa esta cuenta, pero desde aquí dio el voto negativo, podría pensar que si la usa, espero su pronta respuesta, un abrazo.

Hey @splatts! 😀 I saw your @jlspatts on Hive.vote's "Downvote Trails" with 24 followers. 🕵️‍♂️ Since you mentioned on this article that you are no longer going to use your @jlsplatts account, I suggest removing your downvote trail on Hive.vote. 😅

@manorvillemike(73)· 2080d
This just popped into my head...
@harisfaris(59)· 2089d
Good luck
@farm-mom(73)· 2089d
Ok, I got it @splatts, already following.

Nice picture of you and your brothers, my kind of family, trouble all the way.😉
@thebigsweed(73)· 2089d
I rather enjoyed the explanation, getting some history on the Splattstoesser family, that is for sure a mouthful, 14 letters in all, was fun to read about. The family picture was nice to see. If the brother standing next to you had some hair and was a little taller, he'd be a spitting image of the splatts I know.

The funny thing is that when we opened our first account we did the same thing. Both of us were planning to blog under one title. That is the reason for both Robin and Bob appearing on the page when you open up thebigsweed. Needless to say, that didn't work and @farm-mom opened up her own account.

Robin has been bugging me to change both the picture and the Robin and Bob found on the cover page. It may be time for me to change that, especially after she reads this post.

At first, I thought you were taking a break from #hive altogether, I'm glad that's not the case.
@glenalbrethsen(71)· 2090d
Hey, @jlsplatts, @splatts and whatever other aliases you have. :)

Okay, so when I first saw this, I thought, oh, great, another longtime STEEM/HIVE pal is throwing in the towel completely. With the added bonus of being within a day's driving distance of my house.

So, good on you getting my attention with the clickbait title, dude.

I am, of course, glad to see that you are still hanging around, and only changing which account you will be working with primarily.

I should have known better. In fact, it really didn't compute, since you've been managing to find the time to do a lot of things here on HIVE despite the busy schedule of work, family and so forth.

You've kept it together longer than I have been able to with not as many things on my plate compared to yours, so I I should have realized it was something like this.

Anyway. Keep up the good work and I will go back into my corner of HIVE and be happy in the knowledge I didn't just lose another one. :)
@galenkp(84)· 2090d
jlsplatts who?
@jacobtothe(77)· 2090d
I created a couple alt accounts for specific purposes, but found keeping on top of multiple posts and replies to be a PITA. I'll make sure I'm following the other account!
@sunlit7(64)· 2091d
So if I follow you at the splatt's account will you be posting appic's stuff there also?....I tend to boycott appic's because you are right, not only does it violate rules in place that has gotten a whole lot of other people in trouble for, what they post isn't worth the rewards they get.
@dandays(73)· 2091d

type Splatts on the keyboard. It just flows doesn’t it? Now add jl in front...

That's funny.

All those directions about your name, your new name, what you didn't call yourself, and yet you failed to mention they called you that cuz they couldn't spell the whole thing.
