If a nickname is taken but hasn't been used in yonks at what point does MNHQ retrieve it?

[EccentricaGallumbits]

There's a name I need. I really really need it.

It was used 6 times in one day in 2009 and never since.

And I NEED it.

Do you lot at MNHQ have a clean up occasionally and retrieve names which haven't been used in yonks?

an dif you do is there a request list I can ask for this name I NEED please?

You have to tell us what it is first.

Which name is it, Eccentrica? Perhaps the namee would release it?

There was an unused names auction once. What's the name?

there used to be an auction

but I don't know if or when they are planning another.

SheelaNaGig.

I NEED it

only used 6 times. I'd use it loads more than that.

It's the perfect person to metamorphose into. From triple breasted whore to naughty goddess.

Ooh. I remember that name. I don't think it was me though...or was it?

Hang on.

Noo that wasn't me. Cool name though.

A PJ Harvey fan?

Could you use SheilaNaGig?

Could be worse, the name I really want has never been used!

Olivia said a few weeks ago here that she didn't think an auction was likely in the near future because Tech was too busy with the iPhone/mobile app.

Bollocks. Tech has to be male otherwise he'd be able to multitask and sort it out.

I think it must be like wiring a plug, or a lightbulb. Designed by a bloke and a million times more complicated than it actually needs to be.

Can't I just Have it? goorn. please?

Agree with Swans, Use SheilaNaGig or SileNaGig if you want to be Gaelically correct!
