SurlyPIG Posted April 21, 2002 Share Posted April 21, 2002 This is ace here, ACElethal on the old boards. I finally got around to registering and I discovered my name's already taken! Check in the member list yourself. It's wierd, though, because he hasn't even posted!Technically, whoever registered it got it first, so I guess it's his. But it's kind of distressing because if he posts in my name and says something stupid then others might think it's me! :'(Is there any sort of proceedure to follow for something like this, or is it "finders keepers ace weeps".

Gobalopper Posted April 21, 2002 Share Posted April 21, 2002 I just removed them. So you can use change your username to ACElethal now without problem.If they complain I'll ask them why they choose that name, I doubt someone has the exact same name.

undsputed Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 lol Ace, that reminds me of a business term relating to the internet. They call you a cybersquatter if you steal a real company's domain name before they set up their web site. Someone beat you to it :) The good news is that most courts won't allow it to stand (like Gob). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
