Searching Your Own Username

Zebede · 31 Dec 2007 at 04:59

I thought just for the hell of it I'd search for my own username and look back at some of the posts I'd made over the last couple of years (back to about 2004).

It's actually pretty entertaining seeing how much you're posting style/interests change over time.

I recommend trying it if boredom kicks in at this unsavory hour.

try doing a google search on it as well

you'll be quite surprised.

I search my user name and it brings up some guy with the same one who seems to like car forums.

Well that proves it.
I've always claimed that I was using Google Earth when it was called Keyhole and you had to pay £16 a year for it.
Some posters here doubted it but right at the top of Google is this under bbs.keyhole - http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showprof...3&Board=ClubPhilverney&what=ubbthreads&page=0

Putting mine into google UK just floods me with irony.

My name is too common to try this :mad:

Oh my god.. I just searched through apolyton for my old posts under Darg or Dargish which is a variation I use sometimes. I have forgotten the password to my old Darg account on there but I managed to find some.

To my shock though I searched more, sure that I had been a member there before 2005 and I found posts under the nickname Darkknight which I had completely and utterly forgotten I once used. The earliest I found was back in 2001.. man..

I would really love to see a colonization 2. After civ3 of course.then dinos then civ4 then dinos 2 then some other great and wacky idea for a game, like sids pet 2. then civ5 then col3 then dinos3 then maybe civ6 then sids pet 3 then another new game then col4 then dinos4 and then when all these are finished in 2010 i'll be happy.

I actually remember making that post.. I'm sure there are some posts before 2001 probably lost in a forum topic deletion as I registered in 2000 but still.. wow.. I was 15, 23 now. That's really freaky..

thanks Zebede

Google brings up a whole lot of me, for me. Some recent, some not. Linux Forums must be quite visited though, my profile on there comes higher ranked than my site and I never post there

No point me searching for my name - people like to constantly spell it incorrectly

How do you search so far back? when I search threads I've created it goes back to 6th of Dec this year.
