I object to 2-10-0's change - I won't know who he is if he does change his name

Agreed with Andel. Lankku sounds more like some East European spammer

No, you're a pain in the bottom that wants to aspire to be an Eastern European Spammer.

Stay as you are.... or I'll have to start to set Dave Worley on you.

Wait, you're called "My Forum Nick" in real life? That's just mad. Your parents must have a sense of humour...

I third it and demand to be moved back to the news section! It was totally on-topic!

It won't get noticed here, this bit is just spam now. Head to here to make your request.

To anyone who got here following the link from username changes, and who read the long discussion about my new name (the discussion I had no idea about until 5 minutes ago), I would like to say that I did mean 'Mr' as in 'Mister' - this is the internet, I'm allowed to pretend to be a couple of years older than I really am, arn't I?

(Besides, until reading what was on that thread, I had no idea that Mr could be taken as a shortened version of mark.)

You and me both. Hardly worth shortening a word of 4 letters anyway!
