On changing your DU name...

[tcfrogs]

Sorry Allen, I'm piggybacking off of your thread.

I'm of mixed feeling on this one. I never thought I'd spend so much damn time here, or accumulate 1000+ posts. I wish that I picked a different screenname.

However, it is nice to see the same names/avatars/sigs day after day. I feel like I know the people posting. Starting to change your names is too much for me to keep up with.

My 2 cents...

1. sorry - but

I pulled out mine over a year ago, and just used it 'cause I used it somewhere else. I didn't even know what to do to change it until recently, I had always thought about changing it but never did - till now!

Change away! Just meant I was of mixed feelings about it...

15. I had no idea

Wat Tyler, spokesmodel and defender of the peasantry . . .

/snip
He was cheered by his neighbors and the commoners of the western division of Kent were brought together by his courage. Wat Tyler was elected their leader.

Wat Tyler's group joined another group led by two itinerant priests named John Ball and Jack Straw, and rose 100,000 strong to invade London. The enraged mob broke open every prison and beheaded every judge and lawyer they could capture. They were not allowed to enrich themselves in their rioting. Valuables found in their midst were destroyed. One man who hid a silver cup on his person was thrown into the river as punishment for his misdeed and as an example to others to refrain from such behavior.

5. I think some people just miss being on milestone threads

It's a lot easier to hit one when you're have 2-3 digit post counts opposed to having 5 digit ones

[Screaming Lord Bob]

8. but this puts me back about 2500 on the race to 5-digits!

I would never do that to get on the milestone thread!

[Wat_Tyler]

13. Feh.

She always missed me out anyway. ;)

6. Funny....

Sometimes I want to change mine just because I feel so ignored. I understand that my opinions aren't popular, and as a result, even when I need input, I'm not going to get it because of things I've said in the past.

So maybe I'll have two some day. One for asking for opinions, and one for sharing MY opinion, which people can continue to ignore...

7. Your new one should be Neil.

[Wat_Tyler]

11. I'm making Lentil Surprise for dinner.

[redqueen]

14. Shut up, Neil!

10. FWIW,

I have no idea what you're opinions are.

In fact, there are like one or two posters that I could tell you anything about their opinions.
