Did you ever change your username to something silly and then leave for a few years, come back and wish an admin would change your name back to Dr Unne for you? Discuss.

What is this "Gil" thing? Also, who are you people? Identify yourself if I'm supposed to know you.

This is me refraining from renaming you dR uNnE. I think that shows growth.

Gil is used to buy new cards for Triple Triad, which I assure you is very active and popular despite not having a function that alerts you when it's your turn.

holy shit!

My original username was Demosthenes, but everyone shortened it to Demo. Not a fan of that.

I've yet to encounter that specific example, but I have changed my name many times.

Hi.

I am afraid I have not done a silly thing like that!

Helly my name is Loony BoB and I'm a dumb white guy.

Also, welcome back. Also, I'm really glad you've got your name changed back to Dr Unne, because name changes are horrible things, and being called God never really suited your more humble nature that I'm used to! :)

I've never returned after a long absence and then asked for my username to be changed back to Dr Unne.

Whoa, it's Dr Unne! Hi, welcome back! Are you going to add back to your old avatar and signature? I think we still your avatar, and more. Take your pick.

To answer your question. Nope, never had to do that, but I did change my name to something silly a couple of times, but they always come back to Agent Proto.

No, but I changed my username to something awesome, because I was bored with my old one.

I've had two or three changes, all of which were weird.

Hollycat
09-11-2012, 11:52 AM
I'm not allowed to change my username because I am slightly retarded.

So, I finally get to meet the infamous Unne. Let's see what all the fuss is about.

Sephex
09-11-2012, 11:53 AM
Sup, Unne. I have been back for awhile if you remember me. I used to have a 018 at the end of my name that I actually had you remove YEARS ago.

Dr Unne... it's time for you to tell me all of your plans and when done I shall undoubtedly defeat you in a daring mission of wits, guns and babes. Oh wait, that's Dr No, not Dr Unne... wrong Doctor!

I've left for a period of months before but never really years though I've had periods where I've been hardly active whatsoever. I've never changed my name to anything I regretted though it's been changed for me many a time to many hilarious things as pranks. I do have a habit of forgetting my password. Therefore Psychotic being bored of setting my password anew in my profile and giving me sensible passwords decided to change my password to something totally ridiculous that I would never, ever forget. It's worked.

hi unne, how is the glorious pacific northwest?

i have never changed my forum name here.

Hi Unne; welcome back an' trout :monster:

I was Kilgore Trout for awhile and Deathjester for awhile. I can't think of any other name changes I've used here, although there may have been one for some forum profile theme or something.

Shorty
09-11-2012, 05:32 PM
Were you really Kilgore Trout? That is amazing.

No Idea The Man was a fan of Breath of Fire 2. :p

I've been Corncracker and Neocracker.

The Man
09-11-2012, 05:35 PM
Were you really Kilgore Trout? That is amazing.Yes. It may be one of my favourite usernames I've ever used anywhere, but too many people here know me as The Man for it to stick.


No Idea The Man was a fan of Breath of Fire 2.I've never played it, actually. It's a Kurt Vonnegut reference. :monster:

hi I'm PG. You blocked my updates in your feeds if you know what's good for you.

I have had some really stupid screen names. I sometimes get frustrated having to type out 'moo moo the ner cow' over and over.

Jinx
09-11-2012, 05:36 PM

I've never done this. I've thought about it.
In fact, I requested a name change not long ago. However, I was denied. :confused:

You wouldn't know me. It's rare that someone does. I've had some fairly decent threads. I've been in a few arguments with local forum idiots. I occasionally make some good points. I change my mind about things after about three or four years. My name comes from a character I created for a story which was meant to be a videogame but I can't program, so the best I can hope for for any of my work is to get it "published" onto the internet where I'm paranoid at the thought that no one will ever read it. By the way, if you want, you can call me Merck, Mercy, or Jas.

I remember you jsyk. That means "just so you know", jsyk.

Huh, in Breath of Fire 2 Kilgore sends you on a job to steal something from a guy named Trout. :p

Perhaps that was referencing Kurt as well. :p

Hi. Maybe I will. Probably I'm going to forget.

Hi. I do remember. I'm not that old yet.


hi I'm PG. You blocked my updates in your feeds if you know what's good for you.

Hi. Pretty sure I have you hidden in my Facebook feed, but because of volume rather than low quality.

So can I cash in Gil for gifts and prizes? If not, I think you should make that happen.

It took me 15 minutes to figure out how to edit my signature. Things have gotten complicated. This must be the style of the day.

09-11-2012, 06:30 PM
Hello Dr Unne, remember me? I'm that guy you once renamed to Fizzlebo McFlufferbunny. I say "once"...

And oh look. Now I'm the admin. I feel like it's Clockwork Orange and you're Alex and I'm a droog police officer.

Taking suggestions on how to exact my 7 year vengeance.

09-11-2012, 06:30 PM
Silly unne, it's not that complicated!

I highly doubt you'd remember me I was a fresh newbie back in '04 known as Lekana. I remember you though, for what it's worth. Welcome back! :D

09-11-2012, 06:34 PM
Hi Unne, I'm Goldenboko, previously my name was spelt with a c instead of a k, I was probably before your time though...

Never have I asked to be named Dr Unne, but now I sure wish I had thought of it last week.

Jiro
09-12-2012, 09:58 AM
I don't think you would remember me but oh boy do I remember you.

I once came back from an absence and tried to change my name back to Dr Unne. It didn't work out.

Pike

I keep telling people to make this happen but nobody is listening.

09-12-2012, 11:55 AM
I was originally Jesse1. I requested a change once and never looked back! Well I did look back once. For like I don't know two years after we upgraded to vB4 I still couldn't do blogs or view visitor message conversations because of the odd character in my name messing with URLs, but it got fixed before I went through with it.

Eventually, gil will become much more useful once I set up special TT cards that cost more notable amounts. But for now... for now we wait for "stuff" to happen first.

Unney! I am somewhat surprised, though pleasantly so, to see you post here. You will always be Unne, though I liked God (#thingsineverthoughtidsay).

I have never voluntarily changed my name for any significant length of time. The staff has forced some on me though, including Menses and Rudy Toppledaur McLawrentwitz, or whatever it was. Good times.

09-12-2012, 06:09 PM
I used to be Rantzien and then I made it longer and then I made it shorter. Good times.

That sounds like something I'd do to you. Also something that they wouldn't have let me get away with here. Are you sure it wasn't GHF?

09-12-2012, 06:40 PM
There have been worse names than Menses floating around here before.

It was Shlup's doing. Shlup is not all that concerned with decorum. She is, after all, the only current staff member to have an EoEO ban to her name.

Not for a whole month though. xD

Hi Unne! I remember you always used to edit my posts whenever I talked about drugs! :D

and I used to always change my name but I don't think they let me anymore.

ReloadPsi
09-13-2012, 04:16 AM
Mine was Psi but by the time I joined I was beginning to more universally use the slightly longer and more minimum-four-characters-compatible-elsewhere-on-the-internet ReloadPsi, so shortly after the April 2007 meetup I had it changed to avoid further accusations of impersonating Psychotic.

I have a Megazone membership. There you can indeed change your username at any time. I'm Sharp Reload (lol Guilty Gear) at the moment but I'm thinking of changing it to ChevalNoir (lit. Dark Horse, though that idiom does not exist in French) because it really annoys some former film-making colleagues of mine that we got called a dark horse team once ;)

What does Bleys have to do with this?

Peegee
09-13-2012, 10:38 PM
I remember Dr Unne once saying that he would allow rampant profanity in EoEo (or EoFF?) but something something I forget - maybe that he regretted writing that sticky post.

Is my memory failing me?

Hi Dr Unne. I've never requested a name change, except for maybe when I wanted to be Mrs. Peacock to Shlup's Professor Plum, but I have had name changes thrust upon me.

Please put your avatar back in place.

When were you EoEO banned? I do not remember this.

Shlup
09-14-2012, 04:32 AM
A week or two in May 2004, by Unne, for telling someone to get a life.

Which, if I'm not mistaken, is before I was EoEO banned. So I think you owe me an apology. :-*

I apologize for thinking you were the only loudmouth on staff. :love:

And that was before foa was on staff. I'm sure after that she matured and learned from her mistake to be nicer and more cordial... Ok, probably not. But she didn't quit staff just so she could tell off The Redneck!
