I got a PM from Membership saying that "Darren" was taken so he decided to name me "Darren1". The main reason I was changing my name was to remove the number.
I checked the user list before I asked and it wasn't in use. I also searched and found no posts by a Darren.
If there was a Darren that registered and never posted, does his claim to that username ever expire?
A member as cool as myself should have priority over a user that's never even posted.
