Where did I say you changed your "alias" three times?
You are the one who needs to get your facts straight!
I said you changed your USERNAME three times in one month. Not your alias.

Why do you act like everyone else on the board is an idiot? Get real!

Hey Folks,
When I inquired to TER Support to have my alias changed, they informed me that I have to wait 3 months before I can make the request.
I don't see that anywhere in the Help section about aliases except for this part "Acceptable reasons to use an alias"
Is this a new policy or what? Where can I find that limitation on alias changes?
Serpius
You have been around long enough to know that.
Soime typical examples of unwritten rules are trying to get onthe PO board or the RO board. the written rules say a reviewer needs 10 reviews to get on the RO board and provider needs 3 reviews to get on teh PO board, but they don't tell you that you also need a posting history on the boards until you try to gain access. There are many other cases of unwritten rules that you only know about if you ask them (and sometimes not even then) Sometimes you only find out by being moderated (or worse.) The alias rules still don't even mention anything about the fact that only one alias is allowed. Those rules are still up from when there were multiple aliases allowed.
Besides, in your case it's only fair. They allowed you to change your username three times in one month, and now that you outed your own alias they are making you wait to change it.
... my aliases 3 times in one month. TER would have never allowed it.
You just now stated that TER will not change aliases, then you accuse me of changing aliases 3 times in one month.
You need to get your facts together.

... all of the facts.
You can't make a comment regarding the user name changes. What happens between TER and myself is none of your stinking business.
Serpius
So I can make any comment I want.
I don't need to know the facts of what happened between you and TER. But I do know it is a FACT that you changed your username three times (at least). Now you were the one coming on this suggestion board complaining about not being able to change your alias, and I made a comment based on that. Now you are all upset. Poor serpie. I thought when you came back with your old username and your apology to London that this was the new and improved serpius, but I guess it is the same old idiot. You know, sometimes it is just better to STFU. For esample, if you never started this thread, and just lived with the fact that you can't change your alias for three months, (even though you were the one dumb enough to out your alias yourself) then I wouldn't have commented on it huh?
My post was regarding aliases, not user names.
Since you are harping on the past, you can stay in the past.
I have moved on, but you haven't.
Serpius
Yes your post was regarding aliases, not usernames. Your post was a complaint about not being able to change aliases anytime you wanted to. My reply was saying, "Why should you be able to change your alias when you were allowed to change your username multiple times in a very short period?" So while I was talking about usernames, it was not a thread hijack, since I tied the alias and username thing together and it was totally relavent to the thread. Your first reply to me was saying that I said you changed your alias, when I said no such thing. (I guess due to your bad reading comprehension.)
As for moving on or staying in the past, I don't live in the past, but I remember the past. You once said in a previous post that you were a student of history. Well I am too. Understanding and remembering the past helps us to live in the present. It does not mean we live in the past.
As for you moving on, I really don't think you have. Your current post "In my honest opinion" on the General board is totally "the old serpius."
And speaking of the past, i know when you change your username, all your old posts get changed to your new username, but the text inside the posts don't get changed. And I know you won't answer me but, I am wondering how you got all the former posts you posted as Capricornus to be signed inside by sunrosc? Interesting. Is TER giving you special favors?
I never intended to turn a thread on the S&P board into a trainwreck but you are driving the locomotive. choo choo!
