Looks like not_luc is onto something, poet
I wonder if only SI nicknames are reserved here for the
SI member who uses a specific screen name on SI and wants to
post under the same nickname here at IHUB, but, like you,
finds that it is already taken.
If an ex-AOL or Yahoo admin. employee who has a method of
positively identifying a user of one of those sites, were to
come to work for IHUB, would IHUB honor claims of nickname or
username ownership from AOL and Yahoo, too ?
Seems like IHUB database has either been hacked by a friend
of SI Luc, or IHUB admin. is opening a big can of worms for
itself !
