STUFF testing

Some HSR themed username, we are testing the new format. Come see how it works. — It's dot com 09:18, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

OK. I'm a little more busy today than I thought I would be but I'll try to get some testiong done. --~~~ 11:43, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Signature

If you're going to make your signature "~~~", then you need to put "nowiki" tags on each side of it. You see, everytime someone edits a page with your sig in it, the "~~~" in you sig is replaced with the editers sig. This is what your sig needs to look like:
[[User:Some HSR themed username|<nowiki>~~~</nowiki>]].
This won't change the way it looks at all. Thanks. —FireBird|Talk 18:35, 4 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I noticed that yesterday, but I thought I changed it. I'll make sure it works this time. ~~~ 18:40, 4 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Test sig [[User:Some HSR themed username|Somethemed username]]

Cool. Thanks. —FireBird|Talk 18:44, 4 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Your signature needs to be your name, not ~~~, especially in votes. We shouldn't have to follow a link to find out who someone is. Thanks. — It's dot com 19:29, 4 Jul 2005 (UTC)

You can just hover over it to make my username appear, or check the destination link at the bottom if you don't want to follow the link. I also think that if I always use this then eventually it will become synonymous with my username, plus it's a lot shorter. If you still want me to change it then I guess I will. ~~~ 19:35, 4 Jul 2005 (UTC)

If you want to change your name to an unpronouncable symbol à la Prince, be my guest, but you shouldn't choose something that's already reserved by the system software. It's confusing and, as you've already found out, has the potential for bugs. A suggestion for a short form of your name: "HSR username". Just a thought. — It's dot com 19:56, 4 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Thank you to Rainer for helping me get this together. This should solve everybody's problems. (with my signature anyway. No promises about all of your personal issues.) Username-talk 04:06, 5 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Ooh, that's snazzy! I like that. — It's dot com 17:35, 5 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Very cool sig. single deuce 00:41, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Thanks guys!/gals!/guy and gal! Username-talk 14:14, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)

(It's definitely not the second one in that list. — It's dot com)

(While I was at it (read: goofing off at work), I checked single deuce's page, and he's a he, too. — It's dot com ...Oh, and you're welcome for the thanks you gave there above.)

Just needed to cover my bases, plus, I enjoy using strikethrough. Maybe too much. Username-talk 17:05, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)
