I'm feeling that, in an airborne sort of way.
That's three bird-ish names and three people who DON'T need to change their names due to a wobbly pol. How many more must suffer when at the outset they could have just followed this one weird trick that prevents you from ever having to change your username again?
I’ve had the same flight inspired handle since before I was a Freeper.
Back in ‘03 I went to sign up on a biker forum (I used to ride). Every handle I came up with was already taken. It was important that I choose something akin to a nickname, because that’s how the biker world rolls. They call each other by their handles in real life.
I began to think something was screwy with the program because it kept rejecting my choices, so I typed in something off the top of my head, and dang if it didn’t take!
I’ve used this handle on every forum I’ve ever signed up for, so it’ll never change. I’ll always be Windy.
