Evidently Nicknames is broken again or still broken

Harbs with an Adobe ID has a different email address than you do. And is in Australia. So, yes, it looks like there are two of you.

John,

Can you check on my screen name as well?

I find it hard to believe that there's another Harbs out there... ;)

Thes particular forums on Web Crossing were launched in January 2000. Before that we had web forums on a system called Well Engaged. I don't recall exactly when those started. For a while before that we had concurrent forums on CompuServe, AOL, and MSN.

Of all, the CompuServe ones were my favorites because of an offline reader called TapCIS (previously ZapCIS). MSN Forums were my least favored. They had kind of odd threading, so you often lost track of discussions and discovered new messages week or so later.

I think I started on CompuServe as a Sysop in the Photography Forum, then moved over the DTPForum. And for those who might not be aware, the old DTPFOrum folks still have an online system at http://www.desktoppublishingforum.com/bb/ where you can find a number of the regulars from CompuServe.

Randal, I'm sorry, but I don't quite understand your situation. You have the name randalqueen here and you have an Adobe ID at Adobe.com that has the nickname randalqueen.

You should only get the error that the name already exists if you are trying to register a new account at either location. But you shouldn't be registering a new account. You already have an account.

John

With difficulty, Don!

:)

I also was on CIS, a regular in the DTPForum, where I was a subsection host (although we used a different term). I can no longer remember by screen number ... I admire those of you who can, 10 years after last having to use it. But can you remember your own phone number today?

Well, I tried to tie in my nick here with my AdobeID to no avail. Says already taken. Yea. By me.

Let's see... my nick is my full name. randalqueen. Hum. Should match with my Adobe ID. Hum. Guess not.

I just don't get you guys. Why ask us to do what can't be done. Migrate. Humpf...

I'll stop now before I really speak out...

Another Compuserver here too. I remember Len and Carole and Bruce and ...

... and John of course.

Did people call him Blarney Strife back then, too?

XD

What year did we come to Adobe? I played at AOL and CS but was not real visible. I have one of the AOL moderators that I am friends with today. It's been a long time.
