Leaving talk page messages
This way ain't gonna work very well. --JonTheMon 14:50, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Since your userpage has been repeatedly mistaken for being an unregistered user's, and the userpage policy recognises unregistered userpages to be different to registered userpages, I recommend you change your signature to better reflect you're not actually unregistered, and also your talk page text (the above notice) as that's just plain misleading and disrupts the addition of new sections.

If anything, it'll stop people hassling you and your userpage for various reasons. It might also help other people. -- pling 17:29, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Yeh that's not gonna happen. Your talk page is owned by the community and as such should function the same way every other talk page works. Yours is not an exception. Thus I wish you luck with working out a way to make the wee blurb automatically reassert itself at the bottom but your current solution is not acceptable and is in fact an even bigger hinderence to editing by users. -- Salome    17:30, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
 * yes im looking for other sulotions but i cant edit 24/7 128.176.178.20 17:57, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Computer/IP
Before I spiral discussion off topic elsewhere: Does the IP in question belong to a public computer, I.E. a library computer, campus computer, or what-have-you; or is it a more personal computer, I.E. work or home computer? &mdash; Jon    Lupen  20:56, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Just so you know mate
If you want to keep your old contributions, it may be possible for you to make a new account and merge the contributions from the IP address you were using into your new account. Then if you simply always log in, everything gets associated with you. It may not be the perfect situation for you and I do not really understand why this has come up as it has, but it has. User:71.229 and User:000 00 00 00 might give you some ideas of what people find acceptable in a user name that is similar to an IP, while keeping the feel of what you were going for here. I would consider 127.0.0.1 to be an excellent choice, because anyone who mistakes that for an actual IP deserves what they get, but I don't know if everyone would agree with me. It sounds like you have just had enough, which would be a pity, but hopefully you can come to a solution that everyone can end up happy with. Misery  23:05, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't believe we can merge contributions from IP addresses Mis, that was already looked into by someone else, but ask Poke to make sure. -- Wyn [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon2.png|19px ]] talk  23:08, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, it appears it is not possible, should have done my homework, but at least the contributions from this account could be transferred to any new account that was made. Misery  23:09, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
