What's with your name mate?


Why the hell hasn't he been banned with a blatantly rude name such as this? Isn't this a family board?

I was wondering that myself actually. Especially since I've seen five or six threads now where he's explained how to fully appreciate its meaning. Although it didn't help me, I had to get someone to explain it to me. Guess I'm too innocent

I explained how to appreciate its meaning because, quite simply, I was asked to.
As for how i came up with it- My real name is Lennon Cook. My brother once suggested my first name be changed to "Sookma". That was the very day I registered for IW, and I couldnt think of anything else to put as my screen name. If Ziroc decides to change it to something like Lennon_Cook, i would have no objections to that- but I will leave the decision for Ziroc, as the webmaster and the only one with the ability to change it, to make.

Since we're on the topic of names here i have a suggestion. If anyone mod feels like changing *my* name go right ahead and do it. I mean come on Redblueflare is a little long isn't it? How about Red? Red is nice.

Don't bother, the mods don't change names anymore *starts crying.

A lot of people didn't actually pick it until very late, Yorick...myself included. I missed his explanation of its meaning. (Explaining what it meant to everyone wasn't very smart of you, Sookma.) Now that you've decided to let everyone know what it means, it *is* unacceptable. You can't use that name anymore, not when everyone know what it means.

Tell me what you want it changed to and I'll ask Ziroc to change it.

I'll lock this thread now to prevent any further escalation of this. Move along, nothing more to see here! [img]graemlins/tombstone.gif[/img]
