I cannot change to my Halloween nickname.

It says ScarahStratton is already in use. It is, by ME. Why can't I change back to it? :(

PS I missed the webchat about PARDing and YPMYSLAA, and I am vair sad about that, can we have another one soon, please.

Testing my Halloween name.

Could you try ScarahStratt0n with a zero rather than a O?

IamtheZombie · 05/10/2012 23:39

Mike, if your name change doesn't win this year's best prize Zombie will be utterly shocked.

DameFannyGallopsAtaGhost · 05/10/2012 23:48

Ew, vulva dentata!

MikeLitorisBites · 05/10/2012 23:58

I thought of it all by myself too. Well it kind of came from a book i just finished.

sadly this name is probably the closest I will ever get to a literary reference!

ScarahStratt0n · 06/10/2012 00:39

Thanks Mike.

And FLMAO at Vulva Dentata.

MikeLitorisBites · 06/10/2012 10:26

It worked! Goodo

Stratters, based on what Hec said up there --- does that mean you can't n/c back to normal SS now? Or have I misunderstood?

Afternoon.

SarahStratton, the nickname ScarahStratt0n still belongs to you and your nickname-change ability is fine and dandy, looking at it from this end. So this is all a bit odd.

Would you like to mail in to us (just hit Report on your OP) and let us know exactly what's happening when you try - and we'll try to sort you out.

PS: You know it's ScarahStratt0n with a zero, right?

MaryZcary · 06/10/2012 17:51

I read that as ScarahStrapon

Helen, I think you may have missed the point. She wants ScarahStratton with an o not a 0, which she may have forfeited when she flounced went on holidays.

I'm trying out this one , but it's far to early to actually stick with it. The beginning of half term on October 25th will do me.

Oh, I see. That makes sense. Sorry for misunderstanding.

Do still mail in SarahStratton: they may be one thing we can try.

Thank you SO much HelenMN, it is ScarahStratton that I can't get back.

MaryZ, my Christmas nickname last year was SantasStrapon, and I woz robbed it was a brilliant name.

OMG I won't be able to use that either.

This really is a lesson for wannabe flouncers isn't it .

Just think of all those wasted wonderful names, deserted and lying in limbo after the moldies debacle.

You're right, all my lovely, lovely nicknames, moldering away in limbo. Pore fings :(
