I went over the reasons for creating a guide screen name in the “How it all works...” chapter. It is extremely helpful for stealing users passwords to have a guide screen name. Also, the below method works for all other restricted names. When you are first creating your account, and entering your personal information, enter your first name as “Guide”. Then when it comes time to pick a screen name, enter one you know has been used. The system will automatically suggest for your second choice your first name and the first letter of your last name, “GuideA”. It is possible to have a three letter combo, but there will not be a space between the word guide and the letter, i.e. “GuideABC”. To do that, make your first name “Guide ABC” or your first name “Guide AB” and your last name beginning with “C”. After creating a guide screen name, I highly recommend changing your name, use keyword “billing” and use the “Change address information” option. You can use this trick with any name that is regularly restricted, in the same manner.
