Sentrawoods, I see the username as “LetswriteNshare” now, in my last post in this thread. Oh, and you have done it exactly the same way I wanted (L, N capital), lol. Thanks.

Thanks all those who took the trouble to offer suggestions (here/PT/email, seems like I realy created a sob-story out of this Eek)- Sunemstar, Viktoria, marcus3825, TN (who went two steps ahead and had changed it then changed it back.. hey don’t mind, I’m just saying that lightly, lol), Harv, Song_bird, Alice, Asa, d_w, greekboy3000, sentrawoods, $anya and myself. If I left someone out- sorry, and thanks!

Well, I just hope that just when I’m about to complete my second year in QL on 18 Aug. 2004, I don’t have to shorten this to like 10 characters!

Welcome to QL, LetswriteNshare, hope that you have a fun and enlightening time here (that's the way I welcome newbies usually, so I might as well welcome myself Wink), Big Grin~

Haha. Or, actually as $anya wrote, as long as the person behind the username is the same it doesn’t matter [and the person is the same fortunately- or unfortunately for some, muahuahua (is that the way they write that evil laughter thingy… I am not sure, I’ll go with “lol” and the icon for evil laughter!).. lol Evil LOL]


Smile

Welcome to the old newbie! (or the new oldbie)

Now that I see your new name in glorious blue I think it looks really good.

What I'd like to know is - what happened to the 'a' and the 'd'? Have you sold them? Are they locked in a draw somewhere? Or have you given them away? Will I see them, like some amnesiac friend, as parts of the name of another newbie?

I look forward to meeting them again sometime.

Thanks Asa!! Ask sentrawoods what did he do with (to?) my alphabets- ate them? Lol! Maybe I'll add "a" and "d" to Asa, as an honor. Ok, Dasaa? Teehee. I'm going crazy LOL~ Hey, "old newbie" is fine, but I like "new oldbie" quite a lot- especially that today I strike exact one full, ripe year of joining QL!

Cheers to all here! I tolerated you for one year Wink, actually you guys tolerated me Big Grin, whatever, it has been fun~

$anya: It's OK with my royal ( Big Grin) search engine whether you use LWAS or LWNS, or Letswriteandshare or LetswriteNshare, lol, thanks for asking Smile!

A question: Why do I have to log in as "Letswriteandshare" though, even though display name is "LetswriteNshare"? Well I don't mind that though.

Hmm. I kinda like LetswriteNshare. Like both usernames are fine~

Smile

Something has come to light that apparently needs to be clarified.
When we change your name, it turns out that we are actually just changing your "display name."
There are two fields that we (moderators) have access to:

UserName*:
The name used when logging in. It is not case sensitive.

and

Display Name:
This is the name that will show in the profile and next to the user's posts. If this field is optional and it is left blank, the username will be used.

So, I've checked a few and this appears to be the case. You will still logon with your original username, but when you post the modified name will be shown.

In fact, in the process of checking, it appears that Sentrawoods put the new name for eternally*unraveled*dreamer into the "Display Email" field (which is just below "Display Name" so it's an easy mistake to make), so the change did not take effect.
I have moved the new name, unraveled*dream, into the "Display Name" field and now it should be OK.

Hope this is as clear as mud. Smile Wink
And I'm still not 100 percent sure about this, but this appears to be what is happening.

This is my temporary sig, not directed at anyone in particular:

I'm not sure if this should be posted here, but...well... I've never liked the shortened words I had to change to in my username. If it wouldn't be too much work, could I have

sweetlilgirlNOT?

Thanks!

done

I'm assuming the @^^@ part of my name has to go, since it is more than two non alphanumeric characters, so could I possibly have dreadpirateemmy? (It's exactly fifteen.)
Thank you...

Did you really have to bump the thread where I threw some tantrums? WinkWink
eap@^^@, I'll just suggest that you not completely change your username. It usually leads to confusion for the older members that have known you, and haven't checked up on the name update. Maybe "eap@@" or "Eap^^"?
It's up to you though. No tantrums from me this time Wink!
If I recall correctly, the @^^@ had some interesting origin based on a teacher's hairbun, right? Big Grin

Man come to think of it, I used to be hilarious. In an odd way...
