Guys, A simple question: Who the hell is Ashby? I've been away from here for some time, and now all I see is "Nathan Ashby", "The REAL Nathan Ashby", "Ashby the Wise" etc. SO who is Ashby (and no, this isn't punishment for not being on the boards enough). I'm pretty confident it's not TM, as he's still Prometheus I think.

Ah. If I didn't know I wouldn't be able to get my name back, I'd probably change it to Ashmagus Micael in protest. Well, that explains that. I haven't seen anything like this since Imbanmania. - Archmagus Micael -------------------- "You dare Trifle with Avernum?" ~ Erika the Archmage -------------------- My Scenarios: Undead Valley : A small Undead problem, what could possibly go wrong? -------------------- Richard Black - PROOF of his existance (the Infernal one's website). -------------------- MY FORUM!

One of the reasons I was Lady Davida for a while was because I couldn't change back to Sir David. It's a common problem on the boards, though nobody knows why it is. It's safe to say, though, that if he changes his name, he may not get it back for a while, if at all. -------------------- And though the musicians would die, the music would live on in the imaginations of all who heard it. -The Last Pendragon Polaris = joy.

quote:Does "for a while" translate to "quite a bit more a year"? :P -- Also, I experimented with this a while back (a bit after PPP3, I think, so it would have been in January) after I noticed several PDNs were duplicates. What I found is that 1. You can't set your login name to someone else's login name (when registering). 2. You can't set your displayed name to someone else's login name. (3?) You can't set your login name to someone else's displayed name (when registering) - I didn't try this, but it wouldn't make sense otherwise. 4. You can set your displayed name to someone else's displayed name. I could be Lady Davida, or Pokemon, or Kapfen. I couldn't be Sir David, Commander Edward or Alorael. -- Add to that the flat file horror I just found out about, and you probably have utter chaos. David, if you registered the login name "Sir David" and now can't use it as a displayed name, then I have no idea what happened. -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast.

That used to always happen to me (I was very mad to learn I couldn't use Millicent, Dear Millicent after I changed it). But now it doesn't do it at all; I've changed my PDN to and from the same names and back thrice. I used to not be able to do that, but meh. -------------------- —Zxquez Zolohahni Xerch'de/Rate.

Contrary to some people, I can have my name set as my login name (Spring, naturally), but not as a variation that I have already used. -------------------- I'll put a Spring in your step. :ph34r: Posts: 2396 | Registered: Saturday, January 29 2005 08:00 |
