Name changed to this off the back of another thread a few weeks ago where I used the word Mortificado and my previous name had had Queen in it

Today I see someone else is now registered as TheQueenMortificado.

Wtf. It's myyyyy name. Aren't there rules around plagiarism like this???

TQM if you see this come forward and explain yourself!

Ruuuuuude!

It's possible it's just an error and e.g. the user doesn't know they've taken a name so close to yours. I'd have a word with MNHQ. They might feel moved to contact them to suggest, kindly, that they might wish to alter their name a tad.

Disconcerting, though, isn't it?

NotTheQueenMortificado · 23/11/2016 20:40

Wasn't me

CaesiumTime · 23/11/2016 20:41

Ruuuuuuude. Shock

QueenMortificado · 23/11/2016 20:41

IT'S YOU

Nope, no rules. Just a coincidence probably. The site is so big now that there is bound to be near names cropping up.

When was their first post under that name? You could message if you feel that bothered but some people refuse to change.

QueenMortificado · 23/11/2016 20:41

No mistake, it's too unique to be a mistake!

PlumsGalore · 23/11/2016 20:43

I was DuchessFanny for ages until there were many more Duchesses around and it got confusing when we were all commenting on a thread Grin
I now have this name that I want to change but don't know what to ... Duchessmortificado maybe?? WinkGrin

Soubriquet · 23/11/2016 20:46

I got name trolled once under a previous NN

Was quite amazing

No one knew it wasn't me until I pointed it out. They started a thread about Ben Stiller of all things. Or was it Adam Sandler..can't remember now

Maudlinmaud · 23/11/2016 20:46

I've seen two similar names to mine. Sad

toffeeboffin · 23/11/2016 20:48

QueenMortificado · 23/11/2016 20:49

Thank you Toffee, yes that's me :)

I have seen millions of Queen names (and previously had one myself) but who the bloody hell has used the word Mortificado for years, let alone putting them both together?!
