Why all the name changing? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

FOLrocks1 · 06-08-2002, 07:10 PM

Why is everyone changing there usernames on here? I can't tell who's who anymore!

Plata · 06-08-2002, 07:18 PM

My username is still Plata. I haven't not gone by this name since I first registered, although, I have used other usernames.

I have no idea why username changing is going on. Maybe because they're sick of their old username and want to change to something "fresh" and "new".

Lately, I have been thinking about changing my username slightly like by adding a word in there. I think it needs to be "updated" a bit. After awhile the same username/screenname DOES get boring. I've had this username for about nine months and counting. Just my thoughts.

I don't know. There has been a frenzy of it as of late. I agree that it is difficult to keep up with everyone though. I know longer know who is who unless they tell me or I somehow figure it out by a stroke of genuis-or luck. I'm no genuis

I'll always be ks though, so don't worry about my name changing anytime soon.

I don't like Nancy McKeon anymore. That's why!

Im changing my name in a few months to supercrazy7489

Czas na Zywiec · 06-08-2002, 08:49 PM

Well first I had EricMatthews, but didn't like it so just put a space in between to make Eric Matthews. Then in April, I wanted a new name because I've been using this for a year, so I changed it to the one I currently have.

-*Forever*- · 06-09-2002, 01:24 AM

I've changed my name uhh *cougheightimescough* But I'll have this one forever unless I wanna lose all my posts.

vienna waits · 06-09-2002, 01:36 AM

I could never change my name... I will always love Tootie!

Madness · 06-09-2002, 02:11 AM

I've had the name for over 2 years and have no plans on changing it. These boards need a little Madness once in a while, in more ways than one!

I'll have had this screen name for two years in December.

I like it... I have no plans of changing it anytime soon. It'd be weird since I have a fan fiction with like 126 pages so far. If I changed my name it'd stay as posted as this screen name... Too confusing for me....

Besides- I like my name.

I don't change things that I like too often. Nancy McKeon will always by my favorite actress. You can count on it.

Mossopp · 06-09-2002, 05:03 AM

I agree that all this name-changing is getting confusing, but I also find it confusing when people change their avatars. There are so many Tootie and Nancy related names on here that it's hard to keep track of them anyway, so I try to identify people by their avatars. Just when I've managed to associate a certain person with a certain avatar they go'n change it again!
But I guess, at the end of the day, people can call themselves whatever they want - it's my problem if I can't learn their names in time!
