Hmm. I'd be interested to see that. I just did a brief search of the support forum for your post, but didn't find it. Perhaps you can post the link here. Your account history will have it.

This was 10 years ago on the mint forums. My username would have probably been Lost-My-Mind unless the forum disallowed special characters. In which case it's LostMyMind, and if that was taken when I signed up, it was LostMyMlnd (using a lowercase L instead of an i)

I didn't find it. Maybe forum doesn't go that far back. 10 years is a long time in computer software. I guess probably a lot has changed since then.

Did you ever find your mind btw?

If anything, the last 8 years has made it worse! I've had this handle since 2001, and BIG HAT since 1997. But BIG HAT became increasingly harder and harder to get screen names of.
