Hello there. What should we call you? Tetronian you're clueless 17:06, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Why, what's wrong with my username? -- 18:14, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
Nothing. I like it very much actually. Although I'm not sure how I should address you. "Blank"? "Invisible Man"? Tetronian you're clueless 18:16, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
What is the sound of one hand clapping? If you know, you could address me like that. If you're more technically minded, "U+2060" is also fine. Your proposals are also OK. -- 20:07, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Your name[edit]

At least change your signature so we have something besides the timestamp if you're going to keep using this account. -- Nx / talk 21:10, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

There is something there. It's invisible, but it's definitely there. Duh. -- 21:13, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
Yes. It being invisible is the problem. -- Nx / talk 21:14, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
Besides, who's to say that nothing isn't also something? -- 21:14, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
Which character is it? Professor Moriarty 21:15, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
U+2060. -- 21:17, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
It does mean nobody can click on your name to get to your userpage. Not really a good idea. Totnesmartin (talk) 21:26, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
And here I was hoping for some profound metaphysical argument... meh. -- (talk) 21:32, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
What, from me? I don't do profound metaphysical arguments on the internet. Totnesmartin (talk) 21:34, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
There are no profound metaphysical arguments on the internet. But you could have faked one. Never mind, yours was fine, too. -- (talk) 21:38, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
I get a little square. Can't you see it? Broccoli (talk) 21:28, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
No. Your browser/operating system sucks. -- Nx / talk 21:30, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
I see a little square too. Refugeetalk page 23:04, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
YOUR BROWSER/OS ALSO SUCKS. Professor Moriarty 23:07, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
Your caps lock key is stuck -- Nx / talk 23:11, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
There was an unfortunate incident elsewhere that left me incapable of typing in lowercase. I have recovered. Professor Moriarty 10:23, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
There there, no need to shout. I knew that. :p Refugeetalk page 23:08, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
<deunindent 20/60? OneThird? Of course the snarks will quickly call you OneTurd, but that's only because of our sophisticated, high-brow humor. CЯacke®
Ashes to Ashes, Shit to Shit. Not that the slash makes much sense though. -- (talk) 23:38, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Renaming[edit]

I have renamed your account to "U+2060" to enable the username to be typed in on a keyboard and also to resolve the problems mentioned in the above section. Mjollnir.svgListenerXTalkerX 20:00, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

What he means to say is that he's abused his administrative privileges to rename your account in order to facilitate his monitoring of your activities. Welcome to the fold... — Sincerely, Neveruse / Talk / Block 20:06, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
Keep your dispute to my talk-page, please. Mjollnir.svgListenerXTalkerX 20:07, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
Wow, ListenerX telling someone what to do...that's a new one. I was simply explaining the nature of your actions to an editor who would otherwise be clueless as to why you've abused your powers. — Sincerely, Neveruse / Talk / Block 20:10, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Invisible man[edit]

You can hardly be invisible with a big red exclamation mark pointing out your every edit. This should help. You'll also want to read this carefully. -- Nx / talk 23:28, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Where did you go?[edit]

This is the first time I have seen you on my Linux machine rather than my Windows machine, you were visible to me before. On the other hand at least the edit box isn't full of rectangles. - π 12:08, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

That's because the Linux machine is more cleverer and knows that a zero width non-breaking space is, well, invisible. The rectangle is just Windows saying "huh, wazzat?" -- (talk) 12:19, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
Unicode was never one of Windows strength, part of the switch over to Linux was so that it was quicker for me to login without having to get out the character map. - π 12:27, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
I don't see it on Windows or Linux... Scarlet A.pngd hominem 12:32, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
