I suck big time when it comes to memorizing names...
Even if i memorize them, i tend to mix them up.

It took me like almost forever to know marchaliceher.. is called james
I always took seon ho for jusun and vice versa(don't ask)
It took me few months to know elba was angeliceyez

Major mix ups
nicki---xxcrazyjewxx
rachel---tweeak
purpleeyes--purplesky

I just found out that xkali_bla_xbla is called nicole... i mean, sure i know you guys but i ALWAYS forget your names.

The only sn i tend to remember are real names or close.
Like stephinika--stephanie
kathleen--kathleen
paul murphy--paul

Now everybody's talking about christina but seriously who is she? and kim?...mellow.gif

I just want to know HOW you guys remember ppl's names...how? it's too difficult. Do you write them down _unsure.gif

Christina - Just_Dream (admin)
Kim - Lookitzkim (ex-admin)

I can remember people's names if I see them in the forums enough and if people are always referring to them by their first name.

Yeah, it makes me mixed up too. Like waccoon. It took me about two and a half weeks to know his name. I always think he was Joe, until he told me his real name. rolleyes.gif And as what Roxanne said, I can remember people's name if I see them in forums enough. As for now, I can only remember people's name with countless posts. Take Susan for example. _smile.gif

I remember because sometimes people refer to them ... like " Yeah, she's stupid like what Jane ( screenname) said before. " That's helpful.

It's good to look at the intoduction section. And usually they introduce their names to me when I introduce myself. So that's a plus for me.

Heh heh. Silly Sandra hug.gif flowers.gif

For some reason, I used to think that other Kali_blahblahblah person was Nicole, but then I started talking to Nicole and thought, "Nah. She's way too cool." And BOOM. I <3 Nicole. Woot.

There are a few Kims on here, so I'm usually a tad confused on which one people are talking about.

There are a few Melissas here, as well, but I haven't seen Melface or the other Melissa ([x] poised) on in a while. I'm still pretty surprised when people call me Melissa, I'm kind of flattered that people actually know my name tongue.gif
