Changing screen names
by Blurry » Wed Oct 19, 2011 9:21 pm
I just noticed that Arc changed her screen name, and I'm wondering how I can do the same without having to create a new account? I dug through my User Control Panel and didn't see the option.
"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don't bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: 'It's not where you take things from - it's where you take them to.'" - Jim Jarmusch

It costs $73 (US).

I should be able to do this. Maybe in a couple of hours. I'm still working. PM me the names you want. Unless another mod shows up first.

Once Monooq changes his moniker, I want to change mine to Monooq.
Thanks.
Please don't change my name, I'm only joking, and I am 180% happy with my current moniker.

No can do, fuse. People are already confused enough when they converse with the original Monooq.

"Let us dwell a moment on this symptom of highest culture—I call it the pessimism of strength. [...]
In such a state it is precisely the good that needs 'justifying,' i.e., it must be founded in evil and danger or involve some great stupidity: then it still pleases. [...] If he [man] in praxi advocates the preservation of virtue, he does it for reasons that recognize in virtue a subtlety, a cunning, a form of lust for gain and power.
This pessimism of strength also ends in a theodicy, i.e., in an absolute affirmation of the world—but for the very reasons that formerly led one to deny it—and in this fashion to a conception of this world as the actually-achieved highest possible ideal."

I've updated the member page of unofficial ILP Wiki to reflect name changes.
Perspective Logic - (Unofficial) ILP Wiki
Please put me in your ignore list if you don't like what I write. I don't mind it at all
Since it's not my intention to increase the suffering of others, please don't read my posts if you don't like them.
I do think existence, awareness, material, beings, and humans including you and me to be insane and stupid for structural reasons and from observable behaviors.
I don't think most humans have the preference for logical honesty/integrity that would make us to think in reasonable manner.
I don't think most of us have enough emotional stability to face simple anxiety and fear including existential anxiety.
And I like to think and dig things many of us don't really want to see.
Combination of these may make some of you uncomfortable, irritated, and turn into emotional, irrational, and even fanatic mental state.
So, please ignore my posts if you don't like them or if they make you feel uneasy.
Thank you for your understanding.

What about Titles/Rank and that sort of thing? I generally wouldn't care as I assume those are modified for/by seasoned members, and at the discretion of mods. Plus, it is a post based system, which makes the ranks more novelty than anything.
However, in my case, I honestly don't feel deserving of the title. I lack any talent as a philosopher, try as I might. If there are people looking at rank as a measure of what to expect, I'll only serve to disappoint. I'm a sideshow, a detour.
It really makes no difference in the scheme of things, and this is by no means an urgent request. I'd prefer something more along the lines of "student", "hypocrite", or even "dick head" [if you find it fitting]. Assuming this is an agreeable request. What does one call a self-loathing cynic, aside from "weak"?

Flannel.........never mind.
As for you, calrid, i think we sent your username to Message Board Hell, after torturing and maiming it beyond recognition.
I'll look into it when I have a chance.

Candy. I want candy.
I'm just giving you giving you guys a hard time and ...ranting, I guess. I mean, I am a self-loathing cynic, but I could care less what my rank says. Although, I would be curious what label you might give me, given the choice.
But, to answer your question "SonOfABitchBastard" will do nicely. Thanks.

The Narcissist exists whereby every activity and relationship is defined by the hedonistic need to acquire the symbols of spiritual wealth, this becoming the only expression of rigid, yet covert, social hierarchies. It is a culture where liberalism only exists insofar as it serves a consumer society, and even art, sex and religion lose their liberating power.

Yes I was Sidhe. I've never made any secret of it, and have stated it several times in the past.
Besides I asked to be banned before you banned me if that counts for anything.

Names and ranks can be changed easily (it's actually easier to change name than rank...), and for free on request. There are a few ranks that are automatically triggered by making a certain number of points, but those are overridden by a custom rank.
