When I log on to the forum, I usually glance at the bottom of the forum listing and note who's online (1 hidden right now -- I've a pretty good idea who that is, and she should have time for copost replies before bed!). I also look to see the most recent forum member. These seem to reset periodically (Clancey? Or does the board automatically clear them after a certain amount of time if not confirmed?) but I like to speculate -- real or :spam1: ?
I'm guessing that the most recent, cheesypeetyz is :spam1:
I could be wrong (if so -- welcome), but I'm amused by the name -- and by others that I've seen here.
I saw one one night that had Britney Spears in the name, Bree said Clancey goes through every couple of days to wipe out the :spam1:
And yes, its me, and if I have the coposts here, I'll do them ;)
They're almost always :spam1:
Usually me, but not always! We go through and erase the bad names until we get back down to the good name.. currently KAYSEA :)
I have, on occasion, deleted actual people who wanted to apply to the group.... not VERY often.... :error:
*wipes sweat of relief from her forehead*
Glad I'm one of the good names!
LOL
I can't help it -- I have to read their profiles.
Our latest member lists occupation as "paparazzi".

There are three good names scattered in amongst the dross after Kaysea. We've had real people join the forums for a change!
Most of the spam-y member names aren't good to steal as persona names, but the ones on my spam-y email sometimes are. Of course, I could always create a character named "Viagra" and her mate "Cialis".

I actually considered that the other week, but figured the PA's, while laughing, would still deny. :D
I'd laugh pretty hard about it! Maybe if you tweak them around juuuust a bit?

Like Vialis and Ciagra?
;)
Vialis is actually really pretty.

Ok, if you say so ..
.. to me, I'd never get over where the name sprung from.
A good name for an NPC, but not a full PC'd character. Not for me anyway.
Well, pretend that you don't know where it comes from and pronounce it. Via-liss. Sounds nice when said aloud, or maybe it's just me.

I guess so. But I did come up with a few more...
Vigara, Virga, Viraga.
And my fave right now is Cilias. (Don't touch! He's mine!!)
Just two words and sooo many possibilities!
