I was a total twat at the time and had a lot of problems within myself which are now sorted?

Basically in 2005 i was suffering from severe depression which in turn made me be a total twat, but i liked being ME i am fed up with this name and want to be me again lol

I can't imagine anyone would hold anything you posted in 2005 against you now, even if they remembered it - which is unlikely unless you were totally out of order!

Go for it!

Mmm. Why do you want to use an RL name here though? Isn't it more fun keeping stuff separate?

Thedread, because I always have used my name. I suppose I am just bored with name I am using atm and cant think of anything else tbh

I remember Vaunda.

Change it back if you want to. Most people won't remember the 'old' you anyway, and life's too short to be holding a grudge from 2005.

TLE, you were ripped to shreds at the time but you weren't a total twat!
I don't know if it is a good idea to use your RL name though.
Just do what I do and reveal so much about yourself that anyone who knows you couldn't fail to identify you!

I was here in 2005, I really don't remember anything that bad under Vaunda, I wouldn't worry.

i cant remember you with other name but no matter how bad you were youve outed yourself now so you may as well change.were you really that bad???

Well, a lot of the old Mumsnetters are no longer here so I don't think it would matter that much anymore.

However, be prepared to be recognised. 4 years have passed since that thread so hopefully you'll be able to put the old Vaunda behind you and start with the new Vaunda!

Welcome back!

Everyone's had their moments on MN, use whatever name makes you feel most comfortable.
I remember Vaunda, not sure why though.

I want to go back to my old name too, but I can't because I flounced de-registered. I miss my old name.

I think if you contact MNHQ they can give you your original name back. I'm 100% sure they did that for one Mumsnetter recently who had deregistered.

I like you now TLE, and I wasn't around then, so I don't care about your supposed misdemeanour.

Christ, if people roumd here are likely to hold a 4 year grudge, I'd better scarper now !
