Calling out Baraendur/Whisperfoot?

[Vigilance]

So I have been seeing this banner off and on all day:

Baraendur *big X*

Whisperfoot *big X*

"There's only one Barandur! (Or something like that).

I can't decide whether to be disturbed by this as the harbinger of a trend of using the banners to call out other posters, or whether I should just continue laughing, because I *do* laugh every time I see it.

How do others feel about this?

big eye roll from me there.

I had to hit refresh a dozen of times but it's worth it.

Given the "no-politics" and "grandma appropriate" rules, It has slightly more limited application than in the place that I shouldn't name here.

But I think that there are enough creative people here to use this new "feature" with good effect !

It's not calling anyone out - if it was, it wouldn't have been allowed. Pointing out that Berandor's name is similar to Whisperfoot's old name, Baraendur, is no slight to anyone.

Anyway, moving this to Meta.

I had a feeling this was going to get moved dangnabit!

And Morrus, I didn't think anyone was "really" getting called out, I thought it was pretty dang funny

Now, I have to explain.

I think about a year ago, I first made a humorous comment that when I read Baraendurs posts, I'd always ask myself when I wrote it, having no recollection of that.

Then, when Baraendur changes his name to Whisperfoot, in the very same thread where he changed his name, my custom title and sig came to be.

If I didn't think Darrin was o.K. with it, and will hopefully chuckle as well, I wouldn't have done it.
As it is, I'm waiting for teh hat-thread at you-know-where

Well you should be commended

Not only did that banner make me laugh, I even clicked through to visit your site. Now if only I could read German

I thought it was witty and a great use of banner.

For the record, I think the banner is absolutely hillarious. It has my seal of approval. No hat from me.
