    So, I just had a quick Google of my username. No, I have nothing better to do. Home from work sick and can't so much as drink water without being ill, so I'll take my thrills where I can get 'em!

    The first hit is this guy - http://badoo.com/0156066924/me. That's not me! Ok, he's Xoxyx and I'm xoxyx, so there's a slight difference in that he puts a capital letter on his name. But still...

    Apparently there's also an xOxYx out there. xOxYx plays MochiGames. I wonder are they fun...

    What about you guys? Is your username unique or has somebody stolen, yes, stolen, your name? Just goes to show, no matter what new idea you come up with, Simpsons Internet did it.

    A crazy girl I used to know once took my very original hotmail username, made a gmail account out of it and then refused to give me the password. I often wondered....

    I stole mine from a cartoon but I seem to be the only one to have done so.
    And somehow I don't think many other people are going to choose to be The King of Moo.

    You're sweet. http://www.bored.com/ is my first port of call. I remember a game called.. [let me look it up] Jet Slalom. I wasted HOURS, no, WEEKS, on this (http://ww2.freearcade.com/Jetslalom.jav/Jetslalom.html) one summer long ago when I was doing a course that had internet access for students.

    Hmmmmm... *flexes fingers*. Hello my old friend....

    I never got into Reddit. I like YLYL which gives you the best of Reddit, but Reddit itself is a bit all over the place.

    StumbleUpon though... Gonna go check that out. Thanks / Damn you chin_grin!!

    Some nice people also decided to name their restaurant after me.

    You don't never get in to Reddit! (That made sense to me). You just need to get used to it..............Eventually.

    I get ya.

    Just realised that I can play my original Gameboy, first proper computer game ever: Zelda (Link's Awakening) on playr.org. That's me sorted!

    Loving the stolen username stories so far!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 469 ✭✭4ndroid


    A youtube channel, a twitter account, a .com website

    Seems I stole from them rather than them stealing from me. However........Eh, thats not me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,931 ✭✭✭az2wp0sye65487


    Haha! I never Googled my username before.... but after seeing this thread I just did.

    I have a website named after me! http://www.steviecakes.com/

    But it's not me, nor is it anything to do with me!

    Was only talking about that game earlier. It's brilliant. That room early on in one of the "levels" where you had to kill the monsters by their type annoyed the bejaysus out of me for a while (I didn't have the booklet as it was a loan from a mate).

    Right may as well contribute.

    First is my Adverts account.
    And a few more sites that I don't remember signing up for!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,010 ✭✭✭✭Cuddlesworth


    When I first thought of the username I googled it and didn't get a single hit. Within six months there were a couple of thousand. Now there are sixty thousand. Bit disappointing really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,037 ✭✭✭Spudmonkey


    Mine was a film from 2001 apparently?
