You sure? Seems like I've been asked to shrink usernames today. How about pllyn? I've been told that's the Welsh way of spelling your name? sans vowels and all...

Be thankful I rounded yours down to the nearest thousand. I had initially wanted to negate your post count, that would have been interesting. But the system simply reset it to zero, presumably it doesn't like negative post counts....

All right... I better not hijack this thread any more

Hmm, wouldn't want my name changed, but Pllyn does have a certain ring to it.......I've got Welsh blood too. I'll bear it in mind in case I ever want to register under another name!! (as if )

And don't disappear yet Peter - as a forum user you are entitled to vote.....:scared:

Oh yes she is still around. Mostly to be found in the google group alt.support.childfree, I warn you if you are tempted to take a peek its not a pretty sight. She has found a whole bunch of people with the same outlook and they spend a lot of time patting each other on the back for not breeding.
If you look at the thread on the immig. forum someone has got some spare space in a container going from the UK to NZ they are selling which she is interested in. But I think you will find that she occasionally has a lurk here, but maybe under a different username borrowed from someone else.

he he!

Oh, and btw, I'm sure a post of mine could win 'most depressing post' but I don't want you guys to see it! It's soooo bad! Like, I'm embarrassed by it, and it will also make me depressed again, and and.......... arghh

Oh, and this must be the one that got me nominated for dark horse:
"And what the f**k do you mean by real Australians?????

I'm getting really pissed of by you now, and you don't get me mad very easily!

Geez!"

he he, love it!
Yes, I'm usually very positive and nice, but I'm human too!
