Nope, username changes are very rare, for the sake of knowing who's who. Aside from changing it if the username were potentially offensive (or IS offensive), the only one I've witnessed was when shadexii put a v instead of an x on it by mistake.

It was when you first came here, I believe.

Although I can't find it in your post history... *is confused*

Oh and Spok, it ain't offensive, but I recall at the time that shade (or whoever, at this stage) got the roman numerals wrong.

I'm all but certain it wasn't me. I do remember at least one or two others that had roman numerals. Roxas, maybe?

Can I change my name to (bleep) (bleep) (bleep)ing (bleeeeeeeeeeep)? Or is that not family-friendly?

Or maybe I'll change it to Quatermass. That sounds like a good name. I can't believe nobody else has used that name. I better go register it before someone else takes it.

That would be fun. I've never had dinner with a dragon before.

Should I wear my tuxedo, or is it a more casual affair? Do I sit down first, or do I wait for an invitation to sit down? Soup or salad?

I'm very nervous.
