That info isn't disclosed. And of 10,000 people you'll see like 8500 Double Logons, so it's not quite good to post the list anyway.

It would be interesting to see the list, though....

I'd like to see it, just to see the names people come up with.

I just want to see all the dl's

btw does that 10,000 members include deleted and banned logins?

[Paul Hanson]

Logins are never deleted by the admins, as they would be avaliable again for someone to make a DL out of them. The figure includes a large number of disabled DL`s though.

[Solver]

Exactly. We never delete log-ons. However, of 10000 registered names, approx. 8000 are DLs, so in fact there ain't so much real posters as some might think.

So on average, everyone has 4 DLs? That I find hard to believe. Can we have some proof ?

[Solver]

Some jerks having 20-40 DLs.

Solver, what happens when I change my handle? Will my previous name be free for registering?

[Buck Birdseed]

Nope. You will be able to change back, but no-one can change to your old name. Although, confusingly, if you change again to a third name and then want the first name back, you can't.

[Winston]

I changed my handle once and when I wanted to go back to the old one (Winston), I couldn't. The script wouldn't let me, saying the handle was already in use... so I settled for winston, all lower case.

I think if somebody wants to go back to one of their previous handles, it'll have to involve the admins making some changes to enable it.

Not true, at least if you have a different mail address when you register.

Some clever soul created a bogus "Jeffrey Morris FIRAXIS" logon spelled identically to the real one, but with a Telia email account. Of course, since we get the new registration emails, and I check them, that creative fellow went to all that effort and never even got to post.

[Paul]

Of course, the fake JM wouldn't have the Firaxis status, so it would be immediately clear that he wasn't the real one. I guess that's why he only used it to vote in the polls.

8000? Are you nuts? More like 9800. Face it, there's only 200 people running around here.

But advertisers prefer to see 10,000, don't they?

[DarkCloud]

I have been compiling an alphabetical list of posters- I think I'll post it in the OT later today or this week.
