Just so everyone knows, my name is

ULTIMANIUM.

Not Ultimantium, not Ultimatum, not Ultimanum, not Ultiman, not Bob, not Al-Jahzeed, but ULTIMANIUM. I've gone through enough masked ridicule as is with no one knowing how to pronounce my REAL name right, and the next person to make a non-quote reference to me without taking ten seconds out of their time to check my name in a previous post will be beaten with a 2x4.

Have a nice day

Okay, so people spelled your name wrong. Is there a real point to this besides that.

Does it have to be spelled perfectly? If we know who the post is directed at, isnt that enough Ultimanium?

Time for English? Your name is a made up word, not part of the English language. And while it's true typos can be annoying, you could have picked an easier name to spell.

Ultimantium -> I'm pretty sure I saw someone spell your name like this in b.net on Wednesday night.

Calm down about it though - the more unique the name, the more problems people have with it.

lol. My poor name.

And yeah... I've had people I know years later STILL calling me Kharpen. It's like that second r is invisible or something to them.

It's quite easy... if you can't spell it, just call me Khar... lol.

I figured that's what it was... but that's good to hear anyway, I was afraid I was going to have to think up some horribly cutesy nickname for you to use instead, or something. >=D

Come to think of it, I can't tell you how many people around here (meaning where I live, not this board) can't spell my real name. The kicker is, it's only four letters long. And it's not foreign, either. *shrug*

My name is Banedon. It's not Baneon, Bandeon, Bandon, Bandone, Banadane, Brandon, Banned, comm128, COMM, etc.

I actually try to spell people's usernames correctly...it's not that hard, when it's sitting there, spelled correctly, right in front of your eyeballs.

I have the same problem too actually.

It's spelled "L-e-g-i-o-n", not "A-s-s-h-o-l-e".

Just call Legion Leg.

While we're on the topic of usernames, has anyone checked the memberlist lately? We have some freaky names here.

Ultimanium? Who's that? I only see Utilityman


And I bet the only reason my name doesn't get distorted so much is because you see it everywhere on the board ... otherwise I'm sure I'd get called aclmm, aclml, acclm, aclm, amclm or even acmfuhjdljdogihsdo all the time

You've gotta love spelling mistakes... Besides the purpose-made ones...

Such as Avacado ...

It isn't even funny any more...
