Can I claim a username that hasn't been used in 2 years?

[Tab]

The username would be "Tab" it's inactive and the user hasn't visited in 2 years.

Good luck, but I wouldn't count on it.

He'll get it. Best to PM a Mod though.

Really? I'm suprised....then again, if the guy hasn't been here in 2 years and only has a handful of posts, then go for it.

Speaking of which, I've always really liked the name "oldsmoboat".

The Mods have done the name changes before.
Sorry, oldsmoboat is being used.

It stands out like a sore thumb when it happens, but sometimes people post again out of nowhere. I've seen people with a post count <100 who have been here since '99.

It stands to reason though if someone hasn't even logged in for 2 years, they probably won't be logging in anytime soon. Hell I doubt I'd remember my username/pw after that long.

If they haven't logged on in that long I doubt they'll mind just signing up for another screenname

Yeah, this does happen from time to time.

Therefore, I wouldn't support claiming the username unless the post count is zero, and it hasn't been used to login for a very long time.

It was changed way before you posted this. I guess that shows us what you know.
