Dearest Tech

[SarahStrattonIsBackForJustABit]

You know how much you luffs me, what's it going to cost to have my old name back? Pretty please and thank you, and I will love you foreeeeeeeeeever.

[Tee2072]

You probably need more and than that.

But good luck!

[ExitPursuedByADragon]

Did you lose it again!

Tut.

[RowanMumsnet]

Hello



We're really sorry, but the truth is that - although this seems like a tiny job on the surface - it takes up a weirdly huge amount of tech time to do.

And we'll never get the lovely calming tech fixes and new whizzbang thingamajigs that we need if we keep asking tech to spend twelfty bazillion woman-hours doing things like this.

Very sorry

[FruOla]

Stratters, did you do a major flounce and de-reg? I thought you just decided to disappear for a while?

[ClaraOswald]

Please Rowan.

You've done it for other posters. Stratters is such a lovely poster.

[AmandaPandtheNightmareMonsters]

Ah, see this is why de-regging is a bad idea. Everyone wants their name back eventually. We are all weak and addicted.

[Sparklingbrook]

I wonder what it involves?

[PeteCampbellsRecedingHairline]

So where does the name go then?
I presume no one else can take it.

Is it just floating around Mumsnet all lonely, calling for Stratters, thinking she abandoned it?

[RowanMumsnet]

I don't really understand what it involves, but I know that it makes our techs' jaw-muscles go all clenched.

We know that ALL our posters are luffly except the perv trolls

[greenhill]

Could you namechange your name to SarahStratt0n or SarahStrattonIsBackForGood or SarahStrattonIsBackForABitOfFun? That could possibly bypass the technical issue.

[SarahStrattonIsBackForJustABit]

:(

Please?

:( :( :(

[SarahStrattonIsBackForJustABit]

I can't bear to think of my poor, lonely nickname, thinking it's abandoned, thinking I don't want it any more

[RippingYarns]

you could do a 'usual' and add some bollocks?

[PeteCampbellsRecedingHairline]

Think of the poor abandoned name MNHQ.

Haunting the website, causing glitches with its howling.

Making people double post in the hope someone will notice it.

Poor little thing.

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

While you're here, Rowan, please may we have an unused name auction?

[persuasivesmile]

[ClaraOswald]

Chaos, I read that as Perverse smile.

[ExitPursuedByADragon]

Oh yes please.

I want Exit

[SarahStrattonIsBackForJustABit]

Weeping and wailing. Pore thing. Have pity on pore, lonely name. :(

[PedlarsSpanner]

And NO to a nn amnesty too
