Wait...what??? I don't get it.

Wait...what??? I don't get it.

Why are people changing their names?

Can't ANYONE go on the review board, find a review and cut and paste it - regardless of your SN? A review is a review, right?

If you'e ever posted your name or your FH's name on here, ANYONE can find you REGARDLESS of your SN. When you change your SN, your old posts are attached to your new name, right? So you could still find someone even if you change your name...

I just googled one of the girls who changed their name. I just searched for their wedding date and their hall name in google and found their new screen name.

I think their AIM screennames were the same as their LIW names and they didn't want people to have both.

That was my undestanding.

you are an old soul here you know this happens every six months or so - the hysteria. . . .and then it will go back to normal



((btw i am not trivializing what happened to Milana and Melissa, that was terrible I am just laughing at the hysteria that always follows stuff like that - like, wow this is a public forum? whoa - who knew?))

But Milana was found through a google search, right?

So can't anyone just do a google search of ''your name' and 'fh name' and 'wedding' and 'NY'' and find your screename and posts on LIW? Or any combo of the above?

If anyone wants to find your name on here badly enough (which is sad to begin with), they can - regardless of how many times you change your LIW name....

Tilde - you're right. Just the thought of the Karen aftermath.......

yeah, that's what I don't get....it's the internet, did people not realize that people can say, see or do anything they want....?????? I think you're right, it will blow over once we get some new drama started somewhere else.

Re: Wait...what??? I don't get it.

i was thinking maybe i should change mine to something a little different than my myspace name - ppl who already know me on myspace can google future mulligan and find my account here, maybe it wouldnt be so easy for them if i changed my name - but i LOVE my name.....FH gave it to me!

Just an FYI to those that changed there name... if you type in your old name, it'll still come up with LIW stuff. I changed my name about a month after I joined and if I google my old name, my old posts come up.

Yeah me too....I work at a college and students here know my AIM screen name, which was my name on here, and I didn't want them to google it and find my posts. I don't really care about other people who I don't know seeing pictures or whatever...

Yeah that's true but at least they won't see what I post from now on... I've actually been meaning to do it for a while and just got inspired to actually do it when everyone else was.....hahaha....I'm really not any more scared, or scared at all....just kinda felt like it!

Also I got kinda sad that mine was just about me and so many girls have references to their FH or wedding haha....I'm a giant loser, it's true!
