The Stealer of Usernames!
« on: January 21, 2010, 02:42:43 am »

I was feeling bored, so I Googled myself.
This came up.
This guy stole my username! I demand satisfaction! Pistols at dawn!

I'd like to remind everyone that half of the time I don't even know what I'm talking about. The other half of the time I only sort of know what I'm talking about.

I know there are at least two other people on the internet that use my nickname. It happens.

Except for the growing number of Mexicans with my username in their actual name, nobody has mine really.

Oh yeah except for that forum about Marijuana, in which someone has my username but it isn't me.

Google Rilder, most of the stuff relating to games is me.

Bay12 on page one btw.

Most of the time when someone is described as politically correct they are simply correct.

You should have used a more reasonable mispelling if you wanted "imitators" :)

As well as banana in Arabic (plural anyway), which also means "long and elegant".

No one has mine, but I do show up a bunch, mainly because my name is also a mathematic function. Did find this though:

Did a scan for my name. It's still unique.

But something caught my eye. It appears there are articles regarding my megaproject.

I have fans outside this board! ^_^
