Somewhat unoriginal, but something I can remember.

RR - Rolls-Royce (where I work)
Eng - Engineer (what I do)
77 - year of birth

Neat string - thanks for getting this one going!

I'm pretty sure that anyone with one brain cell can guess where I got mine...scratch that, you don't even need to have a brain to guess where I got mine. The "5" is for my wedding anniversary.

'Spacedog' is the title of one of my favorite Tori Amos songs, and 'fl' because that's where I live.

It was the only name I could quickly come up with after finding my previous account had been deleted by someone at subsonic (I got an apology).

Sounds like a "request managment process" to me. "Accidental" deletion of accounts and resetting of points...

I'm totally kidding. Seriously, you didn't request It's a Small World everyday or something did you

There is just one moon and one golden sun,
And a smile means friendship to everyone...

Who could hate that 1000 times daily?

The story I got was that there was an adminstrator that was delete-happy. Never quite understood that, just glad it hasn't happened again. But, now that you mention it, maybe I should be careful in my selections.

the clarfication of that is:
a while ago, we were trying to fight spammers as well as multiple users from the same IP address. We would delete those users we found who had multiple accounts, were posting spam/obscene content, or those that were ripping from the stream. I don;t recall exactly what happened in your case, but it was during that time. The person who was deleting users that particular day got a little carried away with what they were doing. and we've put in safeguards and controls so that sort of thing doesn't happen again.

Further clarification: I did not do any of these things!!!

I never said you did. I think yours was a case of same IP address between multiple users. but, regardless, the times of deleting accounts is basically over, except for the occassional duplicate account. you're in no danger of that.
