Username!

I thought they remained a number because they hadn't chosen a name, it is very confusing when there's a lot of numbers around to tell them apart. Never seen The Prisoner but Kafka's The Trial certainly had me transfixed as a teenager.

It's part of the newbie learning curve. It stays like that til the newbie sees other people have usernames and then finds profile. Then work out how to use profile. Some people choose not to have a username so stick with the number. Well at least I think that's the answer! On re reading and second thoughts ..I don't know why the name we choose on registration doesn't just pop up either. When I did find profile I didn't realise it was after my username... what a twit. I can't remember The Prisoner.. arh just watched opening clip.. looks good. Will have to try to find full episodes. Funny my sister and I were only recently talking about 1960's and 70's tv programmes the other day And now just saw you put a link to the opening clip .. my brain is straining today!

Hello friends good to see you still pop in for a chat or to help others.

I only realised when I welcomed a new comer here,they replied "why am I appearing as NAS24221 when I chose a nickname comparable to yours?".

I must be a softy as it upsets me when newcomers don't get any response straight away.

uh oh my head is overloading as bonniepurple's comment came up whilst I'm typing and tom is typing now! Well I must learn to type quicker.

don't know Kafka? Agree with tom about prisoner being a bit like life as an aspie That's in my humble non professional opinion.
