  June 04, 2008 at 13:28 nibbler says Where, in this case it's a good thing generally I'd hate to see it used as a precedent for "hey I normally use this handle... give it to me"
• 
  June 04, 2008 at 13:35 slaguzman says nibbler Not everybody is as famous as Scoble. If I demanded my name, no one would care.
• 
  June 04, 2008 at 13:44 nibbler says slaguzman true but I'd raise a stink if they did it for scoble and not me.. think they did the right thing but think it might be a problem

  June 04, 2008 at 13:47 PhoenixREGuy thinks all the hype over a freaking screen name is ridiculous
• 
  June 04, 2008 at 13:50 nibbler says phoenixREGuy I'm sure as far as RS is concerned, scobleizer is more then a screen name, it's branding

• 
  June 04, 2008 at 14:13 johnfanelli asks did the "thief" have a good reason for using the name? Did we even ask him why?
• 
  June 04, 2008 at 14:20 DavidWard says way to go Robert, you've got to protect your brand!
• 
  June 04, 2008 at 14:24 skipjack branding or not, it sounds like whining to me
• 
  June 04, 2008 at 14:47 fbrunel says nice, that's a good news. I guess you scared them.

  June 05, 2008 at 07:29 ChrisAldrich says This simple step, hopeully followed by some additional API support and some good uptime, may be the tipping point for Plurk over Twitter.

  June 05, 2008 at 15:21 ianbetteridge says Only jail? Surely execution would be better for this terrible social media crime!
• 
  June 05, 2008 at 21:58 cesarhcjr wants to know how much the "thief" was asking for it and how much did you actually pay to get it?
