The user created a new Ken oostende on 20 February 2009, probably by accident - and then inquired whether the new Ken oostende could be merged with .IT, to which the answer is no. I believe the user now wants Ken oostende to be changed for privacy issues, but will be using only the .IT account henceforth. Kingturtle (talk) 13:10, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

I haven't edited in awhile because I had my original user name changed from User:Valoem to User:Liusion. Unfortunately I wasn't thinking this through properly. This reveals my last name and would be more comfortable with my previous user name.

TONO459 → A Common Man

 * Reason: I think that 4 letters of my name is too much. Someone with a good mind might be able to figure out my name. So if I am called 'A Common Man' it will leave users mystified of my name. After all, there are lots of cyberbullies out there. TONO459 (talk) 19:56, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
