A subtle bonus for odd names...
« on: November 16, 2009, 02:36:29 am »

Whenever I log into the forum, I'm greeted by this:

Bay 12 Games Forum
Hello PTTG??

I imagine someone about to greet some random forumite and suddenly saying WHOA, YOU'RE PTTG??!! MY MIND, IT HAS BEEN BLOWN!!

Anyone else have odd greetings?

 Hello Duke 1.8.
 A new version of Forumite has been detected. Do you wish to update now?

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

Well, not quite. See my avatar? The way it's placed adjacent to the next makes it looks like Balrog is saying it. So it's like "Hello, Keiseth O___O;;"

I choose my name for shortness, so It doesn't really pop up.

Like reading those sentances with the word "of" in them, it's bound together.

Hello eerr.

I like my little hello message. It doesn't make puns.

Because the last letter got clipped off my name when the forum changed, it looks like I just ate the chicken that said hello.

Mine looks like a stoned snail is saying it, of course.

I suppose it looks like I've been trying to sneak in, and got caught in the act.

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

My name has been turned Memetic Mutation unfortunately.

Instead of, "Hello Sir ToonyMan."

I get, "HALO TUNAEHMAH."

My name is Dwarven for "Uncertain Letter".

It's pretty funny when people have trouble figuring out how to pronounce my name. Apparently, it's harder than my real name. Hell, I've been nicknamed either Lols, or It, or Lolor, and rarely Netter, but usually Itnet.
