jaybate 1.0 not equal to jaybate

@approxinfinity

Hello, sir. It has come to my wandering attention that my alias shows up as jaybate 1.0 when I make a post, but, interestingly enough, when I type the body of my post and use the @ it comes out looking like this:

@jaybate

Even if I manually enter the 1.0, only jaybate is highlighted.

This might confuse some board rats looking for pithy, satiric, amusing, basketball wit and gaiety under jaybate 1.0 and finding instead some dreary, loathsome, uninspiring, prattling by a board rat named jaybate.

Now I don't know who this @jaybate character is, and I recall you have mentioned him before, but @jaybate just ain't jaybate 1.0.

I have grown quite affectionate about the ridiculousness of the 1.0 in my correct alias--jaybate 1.0, and I wish to keep it, if you do not mind, as site administrator, and it is within your means of making it appear consistently as jaybate 1.0 with the @.

Put another way, for those trying to follow my posting, and for whatever reason they may do so, be it for good or ill, that they might wish to follow my posting, please remember the following.

jaybate not equal to jaybate 1.o

With or without the @ sign.

That is all.

Except for...

As always, love your site.

@jaybate-1.0 I just changed jaybate to @jaybate-2.0. I hear you say you like @jaybate-1.0, but keep in mind @jaybate it easily available. Say the word and I can change you to @jaybate and the other guy to @somethingelse if you like.

@approxinfinity @jaybate-1.0 I don't ever recall anyone posting under that jaybate name. It seems to me it appeared one day and everyone got excited that the "wizard of words" had finally found us and some of us even posted to him but never got an answer. My personal opinion, whoever it was should be stood against a wall with a blindfold, hear the sound of seven AR bolts slamming shut, and then the click of dry fire. (beer)
