Nicking nicks...

    My nick has been nicked by 2 people so far.

    The first person I noticed with a nick like mine was Beat Freak..so Ok he added freak to it and that is ok but today I saw a newbie on and his name is Beatsie?

    Isnt there a way to keep people from registering with nicks similar to others? If the first word is the same as another user it should say name is use or something?

    Just wondering as I think it will become confusing eventually with the growing number of alike nicks ;) Perhaps I have a fan club :)

    The followers of BEAT...hahahaha //me rubs hands together in most sinister way while making plans for a whole clan of Beats... :D

    Are you serious?

    Perhaps if people were pretending to be you, then you'd have a point but they're not.

    No offense, but this is such a stupid thread.

    I have a sense of humour, it just wasn't particularly funny.

    I'd tell the both of you to bite me, but you may take me seriously :p
    it's ok, you can get over yourselves now, btw...have you ever heard the terms"uptight" or "overly sensitive"...how about "anger managment" ?

    Just curious :D

    Don't forget a catchy slogan involving a phrase like "Followers! March to the original Beat!"
