Re: internet screen name theft
User names are a very good thing in some cases, especially for kids. My user name was chosen for no particular reason other than it had nothing to do with me. It allowed me to be a part of this when I was told that no one online was allowed to know my name (Parents rule, I think it is a good one) I have since made the decision that hiding is not something I want to do. User names are still very personal and I can understand where you are coming from. You have to realize, we live in a world with over 6 BILLION people, chances are someone will think that mrbob1000 is a cool name and use it without even knowing about you. And if they do know about you and are still using the name, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
Although, a search of my name doesn't show up anything about me until page 3/4 and even then its a dead link.
On an unrelated note, is there a procedure for changing user names here?
