Names and links for replies...

Ross

Have you considered something like:

Jordan Anderson (icywarm) for the name spaces in the replies... for those of use with different screen names vs our real names it might help us follow conversation better...
November 9th, 2010
I posted in the other thread what I mean...

But then that makes me wonder why people use different names in the first place.

If they want their formal name one place and a nick name elsewhere, that's fine, but it would be nice if we called them the same thing all the time.

Is Ross supposed to spoonfeed us all?

If someone addresses you, you will know they have done so. Does it *really* matter if everyone can / can't track the conversation? It's really as simple as just mentioning the person's name and THEN 'replying' to get the notification sent, if you think people are that curious.

Just sayin' :)

@indiannie_jones (Annie Charalambous ace )

I agree Annie (but see what I did there for everyones sake) haha ... ;-)

good old copy and paste.

@shelina I have never seen a site that uses two different names... I picked a log in name and it asked for my name so i gave it... i never thought both would be used...

@indiannie_jones quote"spoonfeed" well no... but I did give him some cash, and i will do so again and he did ask what we would like to see... and I think it would be helpful... I personally like trying to follow the conversations...
November 10th, 2010
@azza_l I like what you did there... nicely done... it helped me understand who's point you agreed with so the conversation could continue...
November 10th, 2010
lol at all of you...

@azza_l (Aaron L) w/ the black & red display picture

:D

@icywarm (Jordan Anderson) w/ the b&w-ish display picture of himself holding his camera. You can't miss it. Same guy who started the thread.

;)

Aye, we're paying for this, fair enough. But isn't that to pretty much keep the site up and running, rather than having him tweak every little thing just to keep us from having to type a few extra letters?

+ "I have never seen a site that uses two different names..." erm, really?
I've not encountered one that hasn't(!) asked for url/username and a display name or real name... strange :)

@indiannie_jones love the photo description Annie, very good.
November 10th, 2010
@icywarm you're really wanting ppl to check out your pix!

I agreed through - why use the two names - I didn't expect both would be visible ... but at the same time don't bother me no more and now I don't have to type in names and just hit reply I don't care!
November 10th, 2010
@azza_l Thank you, Aaron :)
November 10th, 2010
@misschuff "@icywarm you're really wanting ppl to check out your pix!" Hahaha!
November 10th, 2010
@indiannie_jones @misschuff @azza_l Thanks I was feeling all picked on now I need to go change my picture! But see there is at least one other person that sees it how I do that two names is confussing...


@weshook nah... I have film drying right now so rather than scan it I have been typing more than normal...

November 10th, 2010
Nobody is picking on you :D
November 10th, 2010
@indiannie_jones ah geez now I am crying at my desk... what a sap... sigh... ;) j/j
November 10th, 2010
*wipes yer tear*

:]
November 10th, 2010
@indiannie_jones thanks... just needed a tissue for my issues!
November 10th, 2010
I'm fresh out of tissues D:
November 10th, 2010
ok well, I'm going to ask this again since I don't think anyone answered it before. :)
Where do you find people's screen names? Do you have to go through your follower list and find it?
I haven't been replying because everyone's real name is what shows up on my page and that won't show up as a reply, right?
November 10th, 2010
@do11face hover the mouse over the "Jill Montes" and it should pop-up or hit the (reply) button and it should show in the "write a reply" box.
November 10th, 2010
@icywarm well, I must not pay much attention because duh. bahahaha! thank you, this makes things much easier now. ;)
November 10th, 2010
@do11face Jill, if you 'reply' it posts their url/usename which is basically their 'address' here, that's why it's their clicky under their display shot on your list (it gets the notification to them, as only they have that name - you are the only do11face, whereas, theoretically, there could be another five Jill Montes on the site). However, the display name is either their full name or whatever else they want people to call them.
November 10th, 2010
@indiannie_jones Are these buttons fairly new? Because I swear I never noticed them before. LOL! I feel really stupid now. :P
November 10th, 2010
@do11face The reply button? Haha, yep, they're a somewhat recent addition, so no need :D
November 10th, 2010
@indiannie_jones some might even say Ross "spoonfed" us the buttons...
November 10th, 2010
For sure. He's a real trooper, that one :D
November 10th, 2010
@indiannie_jones [Annie Charalambous]

What do you mean, I was picking on @icywarm [Jordan Anderson]

Regards

@azza_l [Aaron L]

***Ok, ok not funny any more.
November 11th, 2010
@indiannie_jones why not? he's fun to pick on!
November 11th, 2010
@misschuff I may partake in it, but I never condone bullying :P
November 11th, 2010
That was for Carlita :D
November 11th, 2010
@indiannie_jones "but he started it marm ..."
November 11th, 2010
@icywarm thank you ross for spoon feeding us the buttons cause I was getting sick of having to hover and type and hover and type ..... and remember and hover and type ... Now I'm lazy and click on reply like this ... @icywarm
November 11th, 2010
@misschuff but you didn't reply to Ross?
November 12th, 2010
@icywarm no - i'm a rule breaker!
