jevansio Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Following on from the username thread, got me thinking about getting the 'Jay' username, his membership has now expired & hasn't posted on here since '05. Anyone know him? Tried to PM him but his mailbox is full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supragal Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 What do you think will happen to all the threads and posts that he made when he was on here if you take over his identity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc_p Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Actually could mine be changed from marc_p to Marc P, just think it looks a little better but still the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
