    Default My proposition to increase activity

    Make all usernames as long as "Arthur Rees whispering the word "jiggler" softly into your ear". Seriously it makes it look like a lot of people are online. It's brilliant!

    That is seriously the dumbest idea you can come up with.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    It's all in the mind man. More people think that more people are online and therefore more people sign up and therefore more people are online. Bam. I'll take my prize.

    I think it would be nice if everyone had ridiculously long names, like how media in the subversive comedy genre usually have superfluously long episode or chapter titles
    Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
    Have a nice day!!

    Let's think outside the box and use different EoFF names with [verbs]/[adjectives] and [nouns] instead of copying someone's existing one!

    Shorty's idea is better.

    And maybe we should combine screen names, and have them separated by commas, as to confuse people more with the actual number of members.

    "Shorty, Denmark, Jinx, the Alive Man, and Loony BoB took my hair" would be a single member who appears to be just five (or more)

    Now we are going in the right direction. I can be "Goldenboko, GB, GoBo, Goldybird, Golddust, GoldMember, Goldilocks, Goldzilla, Gold & Buckets".

    I fully agree with the ideas in this thread; I can stretch out my name, add comas, and it'll be like I'm three different users.

    I would like to see all of your best examples. Please relish in knowing that even the mere thought of name changes causes Loony BoB to go into a breakdown because he hates them so.

    smittenkitten --> Loony BoB feels deeply violated and about to go into the corner of the Final Fantasy XIV forum to curl into a ball because what was once smittenkitten is now a tribute to the frivolous name changes that which he hates most about his beloved EoFF and feels that they are going to rip it apart at it's seems.

    And here we have it folks. It wasn't Loony BoB buying the site, it wasn't people getting heating and leaving during site related or Political related debates, it wasn't a lack of funding.

    EoFF is going to die at the hands of Boko and Shorty's troutty ideas.

    Someone please come up with an especially exciting name for this oppressive naysayer.
