HEY ALI, How come my nicknames changed from "JIMMY" to
"JIMMY1014" ...I didnt change it????

Has This happen to anyone else?? Venom were you always Venom1948 ????

I know what i will call myself IF i need to change it!

This had to happen because after the other day's fun with Atticus we decided that anyone could come on as Tony, or Ali@specialreserve or anything like that and say wahtever they wanted. Chances are SHEEPY, that it was you who registered SHEEPY anyway - loads of people register more than once.

How about LEG OF LAMB

Everyone suggest a new name for SHEEPY!!

1) Lamby
2) Mutton
3) Aberdeen Rocks
4) Grix Shaves
5) Dan_UK13225155
6) y2k2002

I need to change it. I got my e-mail that is unfair I like SHEEPY why do I have to change it.

IT IS QUITE MINCE SR!

I better be able to keep my name!

Dear Customer,

We're currently making some changes to the way Special Reserve Discount
Network registrations work which involves a change to your on-line
nickname of 'des'.

Network registration allows you to take part in discussions, review
products, enter competitions from time to time and in the future use our
fast track ordering system. Your nickname generally appears on your
contributions but is not required for log-ins or security.

Previously more than one user could choose the same nickname. With
immediate effect the system will now allow only unique nicknames.

Unfortunately you were not the first person to choose 'des' so we have
allocated you a new nickname of 'des680' effective immediately. Please
note that any old contributions will still show the original nickname.
New contributions from today will reflect your new nickname and you can
change this at any time at
http://sp.reserve.co.uk/interactive/account_view.php

Please note that we have not changed your password or any other aspects
of your registration and this e-mail has been delivered to the e-mail
address you log-in with ....(your email address)

We apologise for any inconvenience caused by this change and hope that
you will continue to contribute to our web sites. Don't forget there's
a game of your choice to be won every day for the best contribution in
the opinion of our moderators and we'll shortly be introducing
Filmaday.co.uk where there's a DVD up for grabs every day!

Good Luck!

Regards,

The Special Reserve Discount Network Team
