Can someone join MSE and use the same name?

littlemissfrugal

there was another littlemissfrugal a while back i posted in the same forum in a jokey way - she hadn't realised there were 2 of us and she said she was going to change her name ( she was very new) i don't what became of her though

Will stick to new leaf even if I've got a clone. 2 Deemys? 2 avatars the same? Hope all Deemy's clones are as witty as Deemy. Hmmm - which Deemy is the best one? Is it the same person? Is there a Deemy stalker? Just waiting for nelly clones now. Let the games begin.

Look at post #43 in THIS thread & MSE Neil says:

Hello All,

We have adjusted the settings to allow animated avatars as this had apparently changed in the recent upgrade. However, on this front please remember our rule regarding avatars:

Please ensure that your avatar (the small picture under your username) and posts do not contain flashing images.

Thanks

MSE Neil

That was dated 06/06/06 :eek: so if you haven't tried since then, it may be worth a go.

I used to have a sparkly avatar and a few days ago decided to have a colour change but my new one wouldn't 'sparkle' anymore despite the above post so I've had to go for a still one. Not sure if the 'sparkle' was classed as a 'flashing image'

If it still doesn't work, ask one of the 'techie' type people like sra to help you out (because what I have just said is as far as my 'techieness' goes)

WHAT DID YOU DO WITH HER?????

Jay-Jay_4

There was another JayJay on here. I remember hreading 'my' Happy Birthday thread and thinking 'but it isn't my birthday'


On another forum that I visit (:eek:) I have the same name as someone on here. I didn't realise it at the time so when it asked me for a username I thought I was being really inventive :rolleyes: until I saw the same name on here. It must've been lodged at the back of my brain and forgotten about because it's not someone that I ever bump into on these boards.
