We’re planning to make a minor change to the way that forum nickname changes are handled. Specifically: when a member changes their nickname it currently doesn’t change on their previous posts. Now when a member changes their nickname, it will change on their previous posts.

This is partly for consistency, and partly to save tech the trouble of manually changing the nicknames on old forum posts when embarrassed readers post messages without realising that their default nickname is their real name.

This change will probably happen sometime this week.

Some people are born with a name that actually SOUNDS like a nick name!

One of my friends is called "Pan Arse"....and that's his real name....well I think it is anyway.

Leave our names alone Granville!

About a couple of years ago. There was talk that somebody had started a thread, and was argueing with himself by useing two different forum nicknames (true) and it wasn't me.

If anybody can remember the thread and cared to put a link to it. It would be so, so funny.

No mate. But I think the thread ended by the duplicate poster saying to himself, well then we must agree to disagree. Hahaaaaaaaaaa.
