…Try something else whoever you are…
Someone jumped right in there and registered “Mac” on the new forumboard already. It is NOT me, and I won’t be posting here after today, so if you see anything posted by a user “Mac”, know that it is NOT yours truly. Go figure.
–Mac
My humble apologies,sir.Will not use that name on this board, as it appears to be taken.
No, go ahead, use it, Mac isn’t coming back, and you are not pretending to be him, no harm done.
Wait a minute - you mean the guy who registered as Mac (who is not really Mac) is now “not mac”. I’m all confused again?!?!
Confused? - I don’t see why. The real mac tried to register, but not mac had registered mac. As soon as real mac realised not mac had taken ‘mac’, he posted this thread as ‘the real mac’, letting us know that any posts from mac are not the real mac. Not mac (who had registered mac) replied apologising for using ‘mac’ and said he won’t use it. Tom then replied to assure not mac that real mac wouldn’t be back, so he could go ahead and use mac, assuming he’s not trying to pretend to be the real mac, of course.
I’m the Mac, yes I’m the real Mac
All your other fake Macs are just imitating
So won’t the real Mac please stand up
Please stand up
Please stand up
hmmmmm
(All posted in good spirit and no harm/disrespect meant to any Mac - be that Mac Mac, Not Mac, Mac or the Real Mac)
W.
It’s a Mac Attack!
Somebody register BigMac yet ?
Man I’m even more confused (and hungry too
PS - no more Big Mac’s for this boy after what happened to Clintoon.
The proper solution is SO easy.
1) Mac (not mac) emails the login password to The_REAL_Mac, or he goes over to Audiominds and gets it to him over there.
2) Mac (The_REAL_Mac) logins in using that password and then changes it whatever he wants to change it to, and doesn’t tell mac (not mac) what the new password is.
3) Mac can now use his old mac name like he use to and mac can’t login to post as mac and is forced to reregister using a new mac name…how about Big Mac. (thanks for the suggestion Mike.)
That’s not nearly as confusing as it will be if there are different mac’s at the two forums, even if one doesn’t post here any more.
Mac ain't posting anymore so it's unnecessary. I guess my open letter to him didn't work - too bad

is mac “the real mac” not posting here anymore cos his name is taken (would be childish)
if not then i assume he decided, before he’d realised “mac” was taken, not to post
in which case why the #### try to register as mac?
wasnt there a song
return of the mac

Why?
If he dosent post here anymore what difference does it make? Does he own the copywrite on the name?
James - it’s a long story why the real Mac doesn’t post here but the short of it is that he & some others started their own forums so they could control & moderate them.
CC
Or maybe they left 'cause they didn't like the smell over here.
Edit : Mac actually left here before there was an Audiominds Forum.
Or maybe he couldn't hack someone challenging his authority?
Oh great. Let’s have the whole ‘toker versus mac’ thing out in the open again. I love hearing that one…
/me settles down around the camp fire
Tell us again Mike, the one about the evolution versus creation thread… (hang on, just got to give myself a shot of this anti-bore serum first)
Hey I didn't start this thread & I haven't feed it, but I will not let comments like the previous one go unchecked.
No likee, no clickee
