Stupid Profile Names
It's one thing to stick to an online screen name and whatever variations of it, but it's a whole different issue when not only do you use stupid, uncharacteristic, unidentifying pen names, but you also keep on changing it and expect all of your friends to keep up with your current name.
As much as I'd like to say, "maybe it's not you, maybe it's me" - maybe it's because we're really not friends but you wanted me in your Friendster friends list anyway in order to have a superficial feeling of accomplishment whenever you see that you actually have 423 friends in total, which is why I may not care but your "real" friends do - I can't. That's just a load of bull.
"zzzzzzzzz" is not a name. It's a shout out or a status message. And it's worse when you actually change it into something that is just as stupid, like "uRbEzTfReN".
If you care so much about your social networking accounts then wouldn't your primary concern be being found out by friends? You're making it hard for people who actually care to be in your friends list to search for you and add you.
"But there are so many other people named Oyen", you might say. EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT and assuming the name "baybiegurl" doesn't help at all.
