With everybody changing their account names on a regular basis, I get confused. Confused ornks tend to explode. Please, think of the ornks. (This means you especially, Alorael) -------------------- Ignorwhat? Posts: 301 | Registered: Thursday, October 2 2003 07:00 |

At least Alorael includes his name in every post. Learn peoples signatures or member #'s. It's easier to keep track that way. -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.

And you can always learn people's custom titles. That can make things a lot easier. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead. I really, really, really, really hate undead. With a passion. Posts: 4130 | Registered: Friday, March 26 2004 08:00 |

What Jewels said. Learn member numbers and/or custom titles. Alo has his sig, but thats all that you can distinguish him by. :P -------------------- Mugglenet--The ULTIMATE Harry Potter Site. Polaris-- New location. Posts: 2396 | Registered: Saturday, January 29 2005 08:00 |

If you can get Drakey to give Alorael a custom title, I'm sure that he will be happy to stop constantly changing his moniker. Me, I only change it every 150 posts, so I'm not that hard to keep track of. -------------------- -ben4808 For those who love to spam: CSM Forums RIFQ Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |

I hardly ever change my moniker. I just wanted a change this time, so I decided to. And ben is easy to 'keep track of' as his moniker usually has something to do with his name in it. -------------------- Mugglenet--The ULTIMATE Harry Potter Site. Polaris-- New location.

I've considered changing my moniker from time to time, but I like the name Icshi too much, and I don't wish to cause any ornks to explode with confusion. I hate it when anyone other than Ben or Alorael change their names—I can't keep up with any more than that!—so out of courtesy to those like myself, I just keep things as they are. Besides, I'm not big enough a person here to warrant such verbal shenanigans—you only change your moniker a lot if you're confident people will still recognize you without much trouble. -------------------- The A.E. van Vogt Information Site My Tribute to the Greatest Writer of the Science Fiction Golden Age Posts: 907 | Registered: Monday, July 15 2002 07:00 |

I agree that there is entirely too much name changing going on. I like to recognise people. -------------------- Sex is easier than love. Posts: 1861 | Registered: Friday, February 11 2005 08:00 |

Yes, I agree as well. I mean, it's normal to see Alo, Thuryl, or TM (when he was here, that is) change names, but it seems like everyone chose to change at the same time. Personally, I've never changed my name, and I don't plan on it. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead. I really, really, really, really hate undead.

Silly me for expecting an actual petition. I'd change my name frequently except for laziness. It keeps me one step in front of the internet police. Laziness keeps me from getting two steps in front. *this message sponsored by laziness - my nemesis* Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

I change my moniker every now and then because UBB will not give my original name back, and I haven't found a name that I want to stay with. I'm fairly certain that most people know who I am; I know Ash and Aran do. I guess the best way to know who I am is that I have a relatively large post count for my member number. I usually keep the same name for a least a month or so, and my profile never changes.

quote:So instead of editing the first post and putting your moniker on it, you decided to bump up your other accounts post number. I think Aran is gunning for number 1 AND 2 in this months stats. :) Only kidding! Err, I've never changed my name, but that's only because I can't think of anything witty. I change my MSN name all the time, but that's usually to song titles, and I always leave my log-in name the same. I say if people are smart enough to think of something good to change their name to, go for it. If not, do it anyway, since...err... It isn't hard to realise who the people are. I mean, Thuryl and Alorael stick out like giant deformed, mangy thumbs on an otherwise flawless hand. And if you don't recognise the person's new name, then they probably ain't worth noticing anyway. There. -------------------- Everybody knows, but nobody understands. Thus endeth this post. Posts: 2864 | Registered: Monday, September 8 2003 07:00 |

Taking out your signature is mean, Dolphin. —Alorael, who feels a need to give a quick lesson on the difference between a petition and an edict. An edict is what you posted. A petition is a request for a law (or, if you prefer, an edict) to be put in place by appeal to popular opinion. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

Add Alo to the list of people who already knew who I am :) I put my signature back; though the pictures change fairly often, too. -------------------- Nena Posts: 2032 | Registered: Wednesday, January 26 2005 08:00 |

I know I'm new, but like my cousin (who is also on the forums) will keep my main name, just add or subtract another word. Like when I got on here my cousins name was Solberg the All-Powerfull, now it's Arch-Mage Solberg. :cool: -------------------- Of all the people to be magically binded to, I have to be stuck with baldy.

I suppose the ornks will be reassured to know that some members have kept their names for almost 4 years. Posts: 950 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

Do you explode with a loud bang or a whump? When you explode do you give off poison gas, shrapnel, or acid. What is color is the explosion red, yellow, or blue? Is it a little explosion or a very big one? We need answers now. -------------------- Wasting your time and mine looking for a good laugh.
