Stolen user names

w1sh was taken here but I really wanted it so I murdered the old w1sh and assumed his identity.

Funny story dear. I’m an axe murderer.

It’s true. I’m just visiting.

[QUOTE=senocular;2359138]You’d think senoucular would be unique enough - most people don’t even know its a real word…

:scream: THE SENOCULAR ON DIGG IS NOT ME :scream:

… posers :sure:[/QUOTE]

But do they have SIX EYES?! Probably not, posers. :upset:

Meh, I have the problem once in a very great time. Meh, its more important if you need a domain or something than a forum ID.

They should be linked. If you got the domain, you should have inherent rights to that id :bad:

So if I own senocular.museum, I should be able to use your name wherever I want? :trout:

At that point, its first come first serve. I understand that. And if its a tie… I win. :pleased:

100% agreed about the domain name. I have dreeft pretty much everywhere I need it, but I’ve had a couple of instances of thievery. Gmail for example.

Yeah saxx is taking everywhere. Not here muahahhaa

I suppose you could make a formal request to to the sites operators.
They would just laugh at you though

:lol: did you really think your username was a completely unique idea? Half the guys at university have ‘spyda’ in their IM handles…

Nobody else uses leisuresuitlissy. Although sometimes I go to sign up for stuff to find it’s already taken, only to remember that it was me when drunk a while ago.

I don’t use this name everywhere though, on the embarassing sites I frequent, I use different names.

My name is usually available, not that I care too much.

Inspiration for my name -> “You look strong enough to pull the ears off a gundark!”

I have no idea what a gundark is.

I used to use nokrev everywhere, which was never taken, but now I use Jeff Wheeler more often, and I fairly regularly get denied.

When I get a beta invite, I try to just get Jeff. Only Newsvine and [url=http://www.opensourcefood.com/people/jeff]Open Source Food come to mind, at the moment.

Same here. That’s the reason why I went with a completely unique name from the beginning. Voetsjoeba doesn’t even mean anything, I came up with it when I misheard the name of one of our lunch ladies at school when I was maybe 14 (she was from Morocco or something, I believe her actual name was Mushuba).

Oh, and in case any of you wonder, it’s pronounced Voochooba, stress on choo :stuck_out_tongue:

I always pronounced it (in my head, never aloud) vo-ets-jee-ba. So close.

I have nobody on 5 or 6 sites, but it’s rare when I can find it. It’s usually either that or my real name, which is funny because I originally chose nobody to get my real name off the net but we all see how well that panned out.

Gotta ask.

I go where the good flame wars are :wink:

I used to use H080J03 for everything under the sun but then I wanted to use my real name and not have numbers in it, so I went with ajcates, witch is A.J. Cates.

I got the domain http://ajcates.com and the nice people at Kirupa even changed my name. Both have always been available or never taken, unless I did it years ago.

Omg could i change my name to kirupa2?
Thanks kirupa your a pal
