Someone has stolen my username.

I'm quite upset, I shouldn't be really.

I wouldn't be to bothered but they seem to post a lot more than me so are effectively making me the 'second' BumpandGrind.

Why would you pick a name of another member but just change the spelling slightly :(

Highland Mam - unlucky, she has a bit of a reputation I think

HighlanderMam · 26/02/2014 20:26

I put them straight sharpish phantom Grin

I've not been here long and haven't ever namechanged.

scottishmummy happened to come along on the same thread and put them right too so it all worked out.

I can also spell and punctuate, and type more than 3 lines at a time.

That's a bit scary Highlander, not one I would like to be confused with. I've never seen anyone with a similar name mine. i can never think of anything witty though.

AlpacaPicnic · 26/02/2014 20:34

Ive always thought Kate Beckett would make a good Eve Dallas!

Maybe this needs its own thread - with pictures!

NCISaddict · 26/02/2014 20:36

Will have to google Kate Beckett now, G Callen would make a good Rourke, don't think he's too young and he is gorgeous.

MoominsYonisAreScary · 26/02/2014 20:40

Someone once sent me message apologising for having moomin in their name and saying they would change it. I said it was fine and they didnt have to

BuggarMeGently · 26/02/2014 20:41

Unless you're a "Blockie" like me, I don't think anyone would even consider my nn...

RedBushedT · 26/02/2014 20:43

Think it's usual to be slightly miffed. I might be slightly miffed that there is a redbushytea... I've been using this name for 2 years but don't post lots. Was a bit Shock when I saw the name but our paths don't tend to cross. waves at redbushytea in case she stops by Grin

thedogwakesuptoodamnearly · 26/02/2014 21:03

Is the AnyFucker that returned the same person that left? Another poster with a different name has a similar style and I am confused...

WreckTangle · 26/02/2014 21:05

Sometimes a cracking nn comes into my head when I'm at work/in shower/in Tesco and I by the time I get home I can't remember what it is.

So I'm WreckTangle for now :)

TyrannosaurusBex · 26/02/2014 21:06

I saw another Tyrannosaurus the other day. Hopefully we won't get into a stop-start animated fight.

thatwouldbeanecumenicalmatter · 26/02/2014 21:15

I'm the only daft bugger who picks such of a tit on of a username to type every time I log-in....

...but I love it for fecking obvious reasons Grin

thesecowsaresmallthosearefaraway · 26/02/2014 21:22

Cakeismymaster · 26/02/2014 21:41

Hi mostlycake Smile

Someone mentioned anyfucker - I've come across her on baby threads and found her to be friendly

WeAreDetective · 26/02/2014 21:52

AnyFucker is still AnyFucker...

She became AnyFuckerHQ when someone accused her for secretly working for MNHQ on a thread last week.

thatwouldbeanecumenicalmatter · 26/02/2014 21:53

thesecowsaresmallthosearefaraw Love it! Grin

VelmaD · 26/02/2014 21:57

I saw another Velma on a thread the other day. Felt a bit bad as only namechanged fully to this a few weeks back after having had a different username since 2008. (I fancied restarting on MN after a few meet ups etc) But she didn't mention anything, neither did I and we ignored each others existence quite well Grin

Oakmaiden · 26/02/2014 21:59

I have noticed a few oak inspired names on MN recently.

Not that I mind, of course.

MiniSoksMakeHardWork · 26/02/2014 22:05

There are a couple of sock NN around. But unless people abbreviate to sok/sock I don't get too confused.

And mines another that I think is maybe too long, being MiniSoksMakeHardWork

MiniSoksMakeHardWork · 26/02/2014 22:05

Clearly not!
