Name Hoarding

Oddly enough, 'Eleanor' didn't exactly get snapped up in the rush either.

Wildfire · Post by **Wildfire** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 1:17 pm

Right. Now that I've got everyone all registered, I am porting the damn account switch jumpbox code as soon as I get back to my computer. I didn't realize just how much I took it for granted until PHP 4 broke it (I think) on MG, and I can see where having it here would be incredably useful.

Jestyr · Post by **Jestyr** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 1:24 pm

...I had one, but the wheels fell off.

In other words: "What?!"

DV8 · Post by **DV8** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 1:25 pm

Echo.

Wait wait. Does she mean a shortcut way of swapping between multiple accounts? If so: fucking cool! :cool

This is a test to see if my supreme name hoarding skill works.

Wildfire · Post by **Wildfire** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 1:48 pm

Yes, yes!
You get a little jox like to 'Jump to:' down at the bottom of the forums that would have all the accounts you previously linked together, and selecting one and hitting switch would log you out, log the account you selected in, and take you back to the main index.

Wildfire: Swoon!

An infinity sign, my dear fellow.

I'm going to say something that will probably trigger some mad name claiming, but has anyone thought about claiming bulldrek icons like The Black Van, Machin Shin, or UngaMunga Troll Brigade?

Cash · Post by **Cash** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 2:33 pm

*claps his hands and wills Machin shin to appear*

Bethyaga · Post by **Bethyaga** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 3:23 pm

I don't think the Black Van is taken, but Kwyn got Machin Shin and Thorn got the Ungamungas.

Click on Memberlist and sort them alphabetically to see what's taken.

A nice dilema to have...by happy that the phpBB devs are smart and thought about my possible abuse of usernames, or be pissed because I have yet to find a way to manage to register blank space as a username...

Code: Select all

&nbsp; or &#160;?

Wildfire · Post by **Wildfire** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 4:57 pm

No Altcodes, no &codes, no spaces, no tabs. Rather cool of them actually.

Post by ** ** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 6:08 pm

Does this work?

Post by ** ** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 6:08 pm

Ah yes, it does. Perhaps you want to have this account, Wildfire?

Wildfire · Post by **Wildfire** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 6:57 pm

YES!! Damn work for getting in my way of Bulldrek forum research. Can I have it pretty please?

DV8 · Post by **DV8** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 7:09 pm

I don't know...how badly do you want it?

Bishop · Post by **Bishop** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 8:28 pm

Ohhhh, this is gonna get ugly, ain't it?

Kwyndig · Post by **Kwyndig** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 8:32 pm

I don't know, it's already silly.

∞ · Post by **∞** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 8:41 pm

You don't seem to understand how cool an empty nickname is.

Spiral · Post by **Spiral** » Mon Mar 18, 2002 9:25 pm

Hello you shiny happy people you.

Hi Spiral!

Jeff Hauze · Post by **Jeff Hauze** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 1:18 am

I got the names I wanted. Jeff Hauze, Loremaster Arivs (my gamemaster account), Nekekami. I'm leaving Brother Justice for whoever wants it. Have fun.

Eighty-Six · Post by **Eighty-Six** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 4:35 am

Lightfinger · Post by **Lightfinger** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 4:37 am

Hehe, that's what I thought. I like the empty nickname better, though.

Post by ** ** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 7:41 am

I do too.

Wildfire · Post by **Wildfire** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 9:24 am

I want! Very much! Hmm....

More mods?
A plothole of your own?
Permission to use my very nifty new weapon as soon as its finished?
A thread in Bulldrek in which I have to do whatver you say until it dies?

DV8 · Post by **DV8** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 9:28 am

Alright, let me change the password, and send you the specifics per private message. The " " account is now, officially yours, as long as you realize that I made it happen!

DV8 · Post by **DV8** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 9:31 am

Let me know if and when you've received the message, Wild

Post by ** ** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 9:46 am

My eternal gratitude for your persistance in creation, and also your willingness to relinquish control, deviant one.

DV8 · Post by **DV8** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 10:06 am

You're welcome.

Yeah. That's what we all said.

Wildfire · Post by **Wildfire** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 12:01 pm

There really is in fact a purpose for every nick I have, I promise

Cash · Post by **Cash** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 12:22 pm

Not me!

Jestyr · Post by **Jestyr** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 12:33 pm

So who's got the most nicks so far? I've got 3...

Wildfire · Post by **Wildfire** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 12:53 pm

Erm, 6. I think.

Jestyr · Post by **Jestyr** » Tue Mar 19, 2002 12:56 pm

I feel small now.

Cash · Post by **Cash** » Wed Mar 20, 2002 10:27 am

1 and damn proud of it. No nick envy here, no sirree.

Wildfire · Post by **Wildfire** » Wed Mar 20, 2002 10:37 am

3 are character accounts, though, Jes. I'm not quite that bad.

Jackal · Post by **Jackal** » Wed Mar 20, 2002 10:51 am

Two names both have a purpose, possibly getting a third. Depending. I was tempted to get a name for GMing an PB3 game but I'd rather add those post counts to this nick

Cazmonster · Post by **Cazmonster** » Wed Mar 20, 2002 11:20 pm

I think I have about seven under my dominion now...
