    Something to do when u r really bored: try this. :)

    Try searching your username. So i typed "hithere" at the Forum Search (or search forums or whateva). the results showed that my username was used in 3 threads. hmmm... not many, is it?

    anyway, how many results u got?

    Wow -- people used my name (and I think mostly in a nice way) 120 times!

    It's just the left side of the page you get when you do an "advanced search"

    For example:

    That brings up several good points:

    1) This search shows the threads you're in -- I started counting and in just 3 of them I was referred to or quoted 10 times -- so the number goes up if you're going by that. If you want to know how many times a PERSON refers to you...that would take a lot of counting...

    2)Your exact user name, especially more complicate ones, won't be used except in "originally posted by _____"

    3) Some of you may be referred to in other places (and I mean this nicely) by a nickname...like just "cooked" instead of "overcooked", ya know.

    Have a fun Monday.

    just like the army
    I to have a name that is not easy for some
    when I was in school though
    I was called everything, but my name, first or last

    the one that stuck was Chuck
    I have no idea why
    it has nothing to do with my name
    I think it might have been a drinking thing:):D

    That's all -- I would think that word would be in the thousands...as in:

    "I'm gonna kill the Microsoft programmer who came up with...."

    "I'm gonna kill my computer if it...."

    "I'm gonna kill the stupid software vendor who..."

    "I'm gonna kill the guy who sold me my ...."

    you get the idea ;)

    No, no, no -- there's NOT -- that's why there's a relatively small number for "kill" considering the thousands of posts we have. C'mon now, we are a kind a gentle folk here. :cool: ;) :cool:
