Your name should be dynamic untill you create a user page, and then after you do that, what ever your name is then becomes perminant.
But then, after you finalize your name, you can have 'pseudo names.' Just have the actual name somewhere else on the post but not as prominant as your pseudo name.
So like, lets say I join NG as Cipherzero. Then I decide to change my name to Ciph3rzer0, so I do. Then I find out about these cool ng user pages you can make, and it says to make sure that the name I currently have is the name I wish to be stuck with. So I say yes and I make my user page :)
I would really like to see the user pages be something distinguished. But It would probably be more functional if available to everyone.
Like people can have their alpha and beta files up there. So then when you're going through old threads the links will still exist.
But ultimately i think it would be a good way to promote flash authors. You can have a page that has the top 50 for BA and for popularity and stuff. Author info and stuff, I can see it now, it's going to be a great thing!
Do you think maybe we could earn partial ad revenue from our user pages? Like if we have a good BA and get alot of hits to the NG page or something.
I would probably just have a redirect to my page anyways...
I dont know why I posted, its not like anyone will see this on page whatever this is.
