Thu Jun 26, 2008 8:23 am Post subject: Who would rather go by their real name? |
 
|
I got to thinking about screen names as opposed to real names. I know screen names are supposed to keep you anonymous, and maybe be a reflection of your personality that your real name isn't. But, wtf, you are who you are.
SO, my question here is who wants to be referred to by their REAL name as opposed to their screen name? We had a post a while back about your real name, so why not use them?
Henceforth, if you wish, and I would actually prefer, to be called or referred to by my real name, Brad. WTF, I've used it for 53 years, why not now? BTW, another forum I used to frequent a while back had a lot of people start doing this, and it worked well.

I have no problem to be called Walter here. Diana (Swan) and Berto do this already. Of course I'm accustomed to be called pesa as well and I like this nick.
So, Brad, I support your idea, although for me you will be ever CJ, Madness Captain.  |

Well I'm a bit paranoid about that but I'll think about it, there is truth in what you wrote. Give me some time to think

I like DOS if some one ask a "/?" I can simply give a half-assed reply. I don't get addressed by my name often unless I'm at a doctors office or talking to someone I don't really know. Some parts of the internet I am addressed by Ivan, mostly on messengers.

You'll always be cj & pesa in my eyes. Screen names stick. It would take ages for you to be indentified otherwise. Waffen is fine for me and im glad I changed it from Waffen_SS besides in those threads I have too many real names! lol.

Well I prefer either DM, D_M, Medic or whatever others ppl call me here. If you really want to you can call me Shawn (not that that was a big secret here) or like Berto calls me by my last name Veenstra.
And yes Pesa and CJ will always be your names to me so sorry I won't be calling you guys Walter and Brad.

Call me whatever, its OK to call me by either name is my point. BTW, I know a guy here in New Mexico named Harry Veenstra, not exactly a common name.
