Do you mean previous account names? Those are basically just a record of name changes people have had in the past. You can find them by going to their profile page or hovering over their name in a post, though they simply won't show up if the account hasn't had a name change.

No initial account. Like Morkula's is MegaWobbufetRobo or something.

It also has "(manually added)", so keep that in mind.

IIRC, there was a time in PC where a username history didn't exist even if you got your name changed, so that's what I think that is about.

probably their first username theyve ever had then. lol
Then lots of people would have initial account names ;P

Uhh, if no one else answers then I guess I'll ask them myself. =P

I get it. Look at Audy. It has a new name, but put your mouse over it and it will show his actual username. Maybe it's a new feature or something?
That's not a new username, just a different display name. Andy had a similar thingy a couple months back when he appeared as "Yoko Littner" in all his posts, but as "Arcanine" in his profile. XD

I'm guessing it might be a future feature for PC, having a display name different from your regular username. It would effectively be the same as the old name change system, but you'll still be rooted to your original username. :P

BTW: Mork's original username was "RoboMechaWobbuffet" iirc...whoever said "MegaWobbuffetRobo" was slightly off. XD
