I'm not Tony Curtis, I like Tony Curtis he made some brilliant films and did a lot of good things for ethnic minorities.
I'm fed up having to visit personal spaces to find out who people really are.
How long is it going to go on.
I've never heard of a Badger called Tony Curtis, I don't suppose Tony Curtis has either.
My Cousins Mothers Great Uncles Poodle didn't know Tony Curtis.
Isn't it getting a bit Childish.

There is a reason TQ - a couple of people had their nicknames* moderated by ican, another bbc site, and they weren't too happy as they never frequent ican. So they decided to start a campaign against ican moderating inoffensive h2g2 nicknames.
I'll see what I can do to stop people from completely annihilating their nicknames - it get's me p***** off sometimes...

Oh well, don't let it put you off hootoo.
More importantly, how are you doing? I hope your health is reasonably good at the moment

Thanks Alex, I had taken the trouble to find out what it was about as it happens but of course I didn't say so and you wouldn't have known that so thanks anyway.
It seems that the matter has been resolved in the *proper* manner, ie, reasoned discussion which was my point really.
How many Tony Curtis's were just , it had nothing to do with the researchers on h2g2, it aggravated me and a lot of other people for no useful purpose.
Health is a bit topsy turvy at the moment thank you but at least I've had a haircut and worked past scurvy
Take care, Quack

Hi Triquack, I called myself Tony Curtis instaead of B'Elana for a day or two ( left the rest to be recognisable, though), then h2g2 played up like mad and I thought I'd better change my nickname back aslong as it was still possible - had it at the end of the tag then that I asupported the case. I think things have been solved somehow by now, so there are only few Tony Curtis left
