I tried to sign up for the forum using the above guest name that I've been using for a while, and it came back "invalid name". I know I caused a tiny ruckus a while back, thinking it was a reference to a L.R. song called "Nobody". I said it was a play on words, and what I meant was if I ever did sign up I would use that picture of Linda wearing that "NOBODY" T-Shirt. What I meant by it was I was the "NOBODY" wishing he was with the girl wearing the NOBODY T-shirt, that's all.
Anyway I'm glad other people like Rob and others on here have gotten to meet her or just go to her concerts. I was in high school in the early 70's and barely knew she existed! I remember in school one day this guy showing that Silk Purse album cover and me saying "yea, whatever" "I listen to Cream, Led Zeppelin, Beatles etc.
Anyway, not sure, maybe the forum sign up thinks "Nobody's Nobody" is already in use by a guest, which it is. And I can't contact Eric or anybody else until I sign up.

I'm not sure how this signing up under so unusual a "handle" (so to speak) works, so I will let Tony know; he's the webmaster here.

It appears the rules that proboards has for member names are: all lower case letters in the name no blank spaces no special characters
Oddly enough, they do not apply these rules when you use a guest name.
So the new member needs to choose a name with no spaces, no special characters or punk tuition, and no capital letters.
nobodysnobody, I suppose, would work.

Thanks Eric. "Invalid Entry" or something close?

I think you can sign up and the user name has to follow the rules, but you can have your name displayed differently.
F'rinstance, my user name is admin but my name displays as Partridge.
User richwar has his name displayed as Richard W.
So perhaps you can sign up as whatever and have your display name be Nobody's Nobody. (That sounds like someone from Game of Thrones.)

Thanks Tony, I think you nailed it! If all else fails read the instructions! |

TMI, but I know what your saying. I'll try again tomorrow. |

Okay I hope this works? My 1st post! Welcome aboard!!. By the way you gotta love autocorrect making "punctuation" into "punk tuition" in Tonys Theory' s post above. Can you get a student loan for that? |
