You may change your public view name all you want but your log is visable to mods and the Admin always! (Higg)Quote:

Perhaps somebody can interchange these two database-entry-names ... it will be an hour work for a professional guy do set the displayed name to the login name, right?
I'm sorry to say this, but without personalizing postings (with fixed names!) it makes just 10% enjoyment and I think I'll return to the watching crowd (if at all...)
I never doubted this ... but don't standard people (non-mods, non-admins) feel more comfortable to KNOW the names of their communication partners? If you mods know each other - fine! I just can't see the sense... and the names worth nothing like that...Quote:

Oh well ... I read that somebody mentioned these fine avatars ... but I can't say "Hi avatar.gif your answer was good but..."
... oops! that's not right: I CAN say "Hi <img src=http://forums.windrivers.com/cgi-bin/forum3/avatars/custom/5723.gif> ... you really want us to talk/write like this?"
This topic is not to anger you mods ... it just makes me feel uncomfortable to talk to others while not sure about their name ... Mr.Jimmr/5723/jimmr13/jimmr1/.../(whatelse)
BTW: hope you don't post my password only to show me YOU can - I beleive it without probe, I'm an admin too... just on a planet somewhere else...
... I thought about SuberB at least 2 days ... just found the answer in the quote above ... so <img src=http://forums.windrivers.com/cgi-bin/forum3/avatars/custom/5723.gif> I hope you see what I mean... How many post will I need to be able to identify peoples login-names?Quote:

...and I can imagine that it's particularly tough when someone changes their name & avatar at the same time....
Now that is one of the truest things I have ever read!!!!!! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">Quote:

Maybe I'm just weird...
So 3400 what's the purpose of a name? Don't you use it to call and identify someone? Am I the only one in the world who does this procedure... *shake head* ?Quote:

Why do you you think there exists DNS in the Internet? Isn't it to better identify numbers by speakable names (so you have a better chance to remember them)? How do you call your girlfriend ... 666 ? Would she appreciate that?
Well as this all that seems to make no sense for anybody I think I'm landed on the false planet - could that be the case?
That's making seach engine here in Windrivers forums less usefull being comparedQuote:
