I have been since 2005, I don't post much and for a time I used another name (to post some sensitive things) but I like my name and I would like to keep it, however there is another poster with a Trillian name who posts a lot more then I do and We tend to have views from the opposite sides of things, people have mixed us up and I think it is a little confusing. I also think it is a bit unfair to the other poster and I do know she does not like it.

I don't know weather to name change or just leave.

any advice would be welcome, but I would like to keep my name, is it very unfair? What would you do? Do you have a name that is like another name?

TrillianZafira? i think that would be most funny.

but i think that actually a departure from Trillian altogether is wise. especially if you use it for everything. If you like to be a little more, erm, abrasive then it would be very easy for people to find information on other sites to cause trouble.

Sadly we do seem to have attracted a few saddos people like this recently.

I used to use the name Trillian on a gaming site,

DS1 saw something on here posted by Trillian and thought it was me Grin. I was rubbish on the gaming site BTW

Maybe something in front of the Trillian bit? VintageTrillian sounds very nice, I think.

UrsulaBouquet · 06/03/2011 17:36

I like VintageTrillian too :)

RunAwayWife · 06/03/2011 18:07
