Re: switching user names

I dont dig this switching the screen names game. I log on one day looking at someone with a boat load of posts, but have no idea who it is or was....



I'm with you there, drew. My memory has a sort of swiss cheese quality as it is (full of holes), and I don't need the extra confusion.

However, as I recall, a number of our most veteran members changed their user names around the same time, in reaction to a privacy concern. Some were alarmed that user names typed into a google search brought up the DB entrance page. I think at least a couple of the switcheroos were intended to give a unique user name to DB activity, as distinct from existing e-mail account names and user names used on other posting boards.

I could be wrong on this one, lets see if anybody who changed names pipes in.
