find the person that has the name Evan, because they have no BBS posts and no movies or games. And I want that name.

Just a small question about the force changing. Are you going to replace the underscores in names with hyphens, or will you just remove the underscore flat out?

(can I be special and keep my underscore, pretty please with sugar on top)

Response to New Username Standards 2006-09-09 12:41:01


Ah well. I sent you a PM.

I'll start thinking of some alternative names if you don't want to delete that inactive "miniman" account

But Why? Why are you making these new name requirements??? So what if other sites use them newgrounds isn't those other sites.

Are you kidding me?! I always have my name. People recognizes me as Dark_Volcano_Sam, and you are saying that I should change my name? My name is always displayed in some sites, like Sheezyart.

Okay, I will change my name, but you are not the boss of my life!

No underscores? I could see your hyphen rule, but underscores are as traditional to the internet as spaces. If you don't allow spaces, you have to allow underscores.

I ain't mad, because my alias has never had an underscore in it.

But I did have to change my emergency name-holding alt Slash_Firestorm to SlashFirestorm23. Ah, well. If this change will make things easier, it's for the best.

But I love being last on the user list all the time.
Plus, "Owsley" is already taken.
I've never even seen that dude before.

:(

PM sent. I'll think of something if I can't be helped.

agggh FatherTime is already taken now I'm stuck with Father-Time which I think looks stupid.

I can undrstand the no hyphens on the ends thing, but why no underscores?

...oh well.
I shouldn't care. I like being LostFox. No hyphens or underscores.


Sigs are overrated.

If the person doesn't have a profile, it most likely means they're inactive.

SCORE!
Owsley's is white.
Does this mean I have a good chance of getting my rightful name?

If the hyphenated name is available, most likely it will auto-convert to the hyphenated form.
