How do I log into the Wiki? It says I don't exist. Then it tells me to fill out a form that doesn't exist.

I want to exist!

Where have you been??? I've been missing you. :-(

You can't log in with an underscore in your name. That's why i'm not there.

STOP THE DISCRIMINATION!

We were BORN this way people!

Yeah, I'm really sorry but it's the way the wiki software works with underscores. I've been working through a whole load of bugs but haven't had much luck with that one yet.

I sent you a Valentine you'll never see. It's probably best this way for all of us.

Thanks, Eideteker!

Hi PinkSuperhero! I have a new boss at work and she has been putting the screws to me.

Ugh.

Can I make a new profile without an underscore? I'm not attached to it, really.

I am jealous of your boss IF YOU CATCH MY MEANING WINK WINK.

Ha! That made me laugh. I needed that today. Thanks!

I wouldn't let her near me with a 40 ft pole though!

Stop playing with yourself, jon.

I shall now refer to myself as jrossi_4r as a show of solidarity. Free The Underscored Seven! (I have no idea how many people have underscores, but seven sounds most badass.)

garsh, jrossi, I'm flattered you think my pole is that big. ;>

You can't do an underscore as a space? Wikipedia itself does.
