I just think its another shroomery trend thing. Your remember the whole ICP gang thing in OTD awhile back?

I say let OTD do what they will...it gets old fast. Even they know that.

I like them, they may be unprofessional and confusing if you happened to be an anally retentive retard.

:rant:Childish game. Stop ruining this community. Have you lost your sanity? End the madness. Ban the haters/non-community (exclusionary) members. Go back to being the respected creator of the best board on the web instead of the guy who wants to destroy what he created just because he can. [/rant]

It's confusing. You often wonder who it is you're dealing with and if you're not a mod you have to be one of a select few to find out, that select few not including most veteran users, or even most who contribute the best content to the site.

As a moderator I several times had to tell people that they cannot change their username *for personal reasons* because it is against Shroomery policy. Then one morning I log on and dozens of OTD regulars have changed names like they're in a witness protection program, for no reason at all.

Many of these people also have elaborate ban histories, some of the most elaborate ban histories on the site in fact, which makes me wonder why they deserve what is denied to others.

If it is to stay on I'd say let their Title say "aka XYZ" with their old username. If you look in an old thread and someone says: "XYZ is right!" and you see no user XYZ the thread loses its continuity.

It's confusing.

That proves you don't comprehend. Don't tell me what my opinion is unless you UNDERSTAND it.

It has nothing to with "happy hippiness". It has to do with this board being a place for "like-minded people" not a hangout where people push and shove each-other and flame and disrespect each other just for kicks. Disrespect and dishonesty and games of hate and foolishness and all the other crap that goes on is a waste of time that may have a place somewhere on the web, but not at The Shroomery. Or at least let it be confined to OTD, but spreading the hate into our serious forums is just not tolerable and the name changes apply everywhere.

I can understand a simple change like HeavenlyBlue to HB or gdman420 to gdman, but all the bullshit changes are just stupid crap that's annoying to people who use the board for what is was created for.

god dammn

Thor is playing aroung and you dont like it, BOO FUCKING HOO

listen I try to be nice most the time but seriously...The majority of people here think you are a pompous ass and a braggart. If you have to prove yourself and bolster your ego to a bunch of young kids you have WAY more problems then people changing their names on a BBS.

move on...



oh



and by that I mean to the afterlife
