I would put this in the Map and Territory field. Or maybe it's a belief paying rent? Maybe both.

Not sure what this means.

Eliezer has an account here and is a very prominent figure if you check out the sequences.

Hamish Sinclair has an account at Marathon's Story Forum and is a very prominent figure if you check out the main site, but that didn't stop him randomly switching to a new account as "Godot". Is EY really so much less eccentric, and furthermore universally known to be by everyone but me?
