You didn't do what Dango said, and I happen to agree with him.

Re: Why did you pick your username?
Do you want me to modify it again?
Re: Why did you pick your username?
I don't think capital letters matter too much for usernames. Each to their own.

Re: Why did you pick your username?
I don't find it very bad, when people write Mostwanted. But I think "mostwanted" is better. Like "acarr". Inj my opinion it looks better like "Acarr"
Re: Why did you pick your username?
Personally I think mostwanted looks better than Mostwanted. I can't decide between acarr and Acarr though.

Re: Why did you pick your username?
I prefer capitals at teh start of names, and after all, they are proper nouns aren't they?
Re: Why did you pick your username?
Holy isn't
Having said that I much prefer Holy Crap to holy Crap or holy crap.

Re: Why did you pick your username?
Holy Crap is my name on this forum, a name is a proper noun. Therfore, Holy Crap is a proper noun and should be written starting with capitals. Xenon isn't usually a proper noun, but used as a name it is.
Re: Why did you pick your username?
Oh, you mean as a name. And by the way, Xenon is a noun as it is a noble gas.

Re: Why did you pick your username?
Yes, it's a noun. But it's an object, it's not a proper noun ie the name of a person or place.

And why don't you use the name Helium?

Re: Why did you pick your username?
It sounds silly. 
Re: Why did you pick your username?
Xenon is an abstract noun, but still a noun!

Re: Why did you pick your username?
I didn't say it wasn't a noun. And it's not an abstract noun, it's a common noun. Abstract nouns are feelings and ideas, etc.
Re: Why did you pick your username?
Okay, but it's still intangible.
Well, you're right.
Well, you're right.

Re: How did you pick your username?
Acarr, why don't you just write your name with a capital A? Believe me, it would look much better.
Re: Why did you pick your username?
Yeah, it seems like the right thing.

Re: Why did you pick your username?
That means you're gonna do it? 
Re: Why did you pick your username?
And I think you should remove the 'El'.
