I'd like to use a name like Steve or Yolanda but every damn name seems to be taken and it made me curious is say an account gets banned 10 years ago there must be a graveyard full of good usernames. Does the site ever do a purge and recycle them to allow people to reuse them essentially?

Considering there is roughly only 8 million accounts I'm going to guess no but I could be wrong

Sometimes I wish, but that'll ruin the moment where I finally remember the email and password to my original username. Then this'll become my alt.

If you're a dude, why would you want Yolanda as a username? I understand if you wanted to use Yo Landa, but spaces are for royalty in this site for some reason.

I had a space in my user name. They took it away for no reason.

There's been one, maybe two purges in the past few years. I made a topic recently filled with small usernames that were no longer taken.

Thought I saw somewhere its when you have no active posts they add the underscore. Something about it not being allowed now and wanting to get rid of any left.
