Oh, I know someone who does JUST THAT!!!!!!!
I can do that for you. Pm me your previous username and the email address you used to register it. If it's still in the database I can merge them for you.And speaking of old times.. is there a way I could merge my username with my old username from 1999? I'd love to see "Member since 1999" under my avatar.

The membership of browncafe have varying views both on what constitutes a troll and how to deal with trolls. Some people view mere antagonism as trolling, while others have a more strict definition. Some people want to ban trolls, others want us all to ignore trolls.
Starting now, there will be a new mod policy for dealing with trolling. Anyone reported by 2 or more members to be trolling our forum will have their posts reviewed by moderators and if we determine that they are intentionally posting personal attacks on other members or disseminating bad advice to mislead participants then their custom user title will be changed to "Troll". That way everyone can see that the person has been reported by other members to be trolling our forum. Then others can choose to put them on the ignore list in their profile or choose to respond to or ignore what they say.
The definition that will be used for what constitutes trolling is:Any member that goes out of their way to make insulting, offensive, or annoying posts to gain attention or upset people rather than contributing any actual content.
Please feel free to continue reporting messages you think are from trolls, and we will continue to address them on a case by case basis. If you feel someone deserves the "Troll" user title, it will help us address the issue if you report trolling posts with the reasons why you consider it trolling (Remember - dissent is not trolling!)
If anyone feels that their "Troll" user title is unwarranted, they may petition the mods to have it removed. The mods will review the issue and make a decision.

You or Bubblehead will never get labeled as trolls, it just wouldn't happen. .
I thinks it's stupid.
Two people report someone as a troll, so they are therefore labeled as such?
Doesn't seem very objective.
I went ahead and changed mine already.
Whoopty do.
Someone has already labeled Bubblehead as a troll. Its on his avatar.
Does this apply for Mods as well?
I labeled myself a troll when I read of this silly new system.
Ya, me neither... if you're serious send me some possible email domains and I'll give you some hints about the usernames.Awesome! Now if i could just remember my email address from 1999. LOL! Or maybe it was 2000.
