Yes, I am. I admit it.
But admins, before you ban me forever, listen to my story:
On March 23 (the date of my registration), I got my personal E-Mail-Adress from GMX.DE, my E-Mail-Server. So I thought "Hey, now is time for Apolyton-registration, isn't it?"... I went to Apolyton, which I already had known a long time, and wanted to register...
Actually, my E-Mail-Adress was "andz83@gmx.de". This was the adress I typed in the registration field for the E-Mail-Adress. I typed in the Username "Andz" and looked forward to become an Apolytoner...
BUT THAT DIDN'T WORK!!!
The registration engine took me to a screen that said "We already have a user registered with this Username!" Anyone else with my Username "Andz"? That sounded very strange, but I didn't give up hope.
I tried another Username, "Andz83", with the year of my birth after the actual name.
THAT ALSO DIDN'T WORK!
Now a screen appeared telling me that there was already a user registered at Apolyton with the same E-Mail-Adress "andz83@gmx.de". 
But that couldn't be the case! ".de" means a German adress. "@gmx.de" means that the GMX-Server had been used, which also gave me my E-Mail-Adress... It really became more and more confusing!
Now I went to the e-mail-server and took a NEW E-Mail-Adress. "andz83@gmx.net". So now I used the ".net"-domain instead of ".de". I tried to register under "Andz83", and this time it worked.
But I was still wondering what the mistake could have been in connection with the first and the second try...
I tell you, there's in fact someone registered under the Username "Andz". BUT THIS GUY DOESN'T HAVE AT LEAST ONE POST!!!
You can find out this when you choose "profile" from the post of anyone and then change the name in the adress-line to "Andz". Also works with other names...
So the ".DE"-E-Mail-Adress was blocked because of my first try, where I used this adress. But I still don't know why I was told that the registration didn't work!
Instead of sending me the password for Apolyton, he told me that it didn't work because of another user who was already registered. But that wasn't true. I was this user, I for myself blocked my own registration ...
If you should have read until here, than you might understand the whole thing. In fact, even I don't really understand it... 
But now Admins, it's time to face the truth. I'm sad that I have to use this birthdate-year because of this kind of misunderstanding with the Apolyton-server.
There are choices:
1) You deactivate both "Andz" and "Andz83" because of the Double-Login-fact. But this possibiliy wasn't really fair...
2) You close "Andz" and everything is forgotten. That wouldn't change anything.
3) Don't do anything. I could still post both as "Andz83" and "Andz" because I have the passwords of both. Wouldn't also change anything.
4) The best solution: Delete "Andz83" but transmit all his posts, postcount E-Mail-Adress, Profile-Modification and his Password to "Andz". Noone would recognize the difference, but I could sleep better.
Perhaps you can manage it that the old posts are shown as "Andz"'s posts not as "Andz83"'s posts...

Your first quote in your signature seems like something Aldous Huxley would say, but not in those exact words (he would've been less colloquial).

I had the same problem a few months ago. I changed my email address and couldn't get my old password (thats why I had to re-register in April 2000). MLeonard will delete the old one for you so you can re-register, I think that may solve the problem!

It's been a cold, wet day...no, that's the wrong story...
OK, in fact it WAS a day from which I wouldn't say that it was a good one, but i think you want to hear this story, don't you?
You, me and onepaul had a chat in the JAVA-Chatroom.
We talked a bit, then you proposed to advertise the chat in a thread. You opened one, where you invited the Apolytoners to join the Chattoom. Now, onepaul and me made our contributions to the thread. Then someone said that this thread was a good place for a little spamming. And that was exactly what I did.
I had 4 following posts: spam #1, spam #2, spam #3 and spam #4...
Meanwhile, MLeonard had entered the Chatroom and there we all had a nice chat, when suddenly YOU, cthol, came up with a warning for me. You referred to the "spam-posts", and onepaul said that i should delete them out, what in fact wouldn't work, so I also didn't try it. But now, the greatest betrayal in my life was done.
YOU tried to inform MLeonard about my spams, you screamed for a ban that should be done. If onepaul wouldn't have diverted MLeonard with a little maths-quiz (1+1 etc.  ), I couldn't post this, that long would my vacation had been...
Since that day when you tried to inform MLeonard (who's 15 as I found out today !!! 15!!! even younger than me :eek about my spam-posts. (They're now nice admin-love-posts  )
Many thanks to onepaul, I think he saved my butt. (Also if he really didn't want that, he did).
It was really a bad and filthy try, but however a lttle apologize should fit...

How can I recognize a Double Login ?
I don't understand how you guys do. Whenever someone creates one, everyone but me recognizes it...

hey onepaul, don't think that you're something special, only because you saved someone's rank by chance. I'm sure you don't even remember what had actually happened that day...
