What's with fooling around with your username?

[cosine]

It was humorous for a while, but don't you think some of you are overdoing it?

Plus, if you change it completely and don't leave any hint of who you actually are in it, it makes it difficult sometimes to accurately identify the author of a post.

(In case you're wondering, I more easily identify people by their username, not their sig line or avatar or anything else.)

Meh, I just hadn't bothered to change mine back yet.

[cordex]

I agree.

It was funny once.

[charby]

Its become lame...  Lame like an EMO kid thing

I'll change it back eventually.

Right now I'm not motivated enough to bother.

[cosine]

I wonder how long until "He of few words; or at least I'm trying." posts in this thread? 

(all right, an appropriate use for the police smiley!  )

Just be happy Wild Alaska isn't over here.

Mine was changed with the software and I didn't see any reason to go back to my old user name.

My old user name goes back to when I had a 486 w/dial up using AOL.

In a way, I am, much as he was a smart guy to have around.

Ron, were you GoRon at one time?

[Ron]

Ron, were you GoRon at one time?

Yes

Nobody reads sig lines I guess, lol.

[Perd Hapley]

Well, blimey, how long have you had that up?   

[Ron]

Well, blimey, how long have you had that up?

In your defense only a couple days.

At first I thought it would be obvious that I was GoRon, then I realized when you guys posted under different names it would take me a minute to catch on.

I would change my name at THR to Ron but someone that hasn't even visited in years has my name taken. Not to mention I am probably known as one of the local Republican apologists at THR under GoRon, wouldn't want to confuse the Libertarian Clown Posse over there by changing my name.

Its all in love friend , I actually voted for Ron Paul when he ran for president. The Bush 41 new world order million points of light from an ex spook was more than even I could swallow.

[Mannlicher]

I think its a childish affectation, but then I am an old guy, and bereft of a sense of humor.   

[wingnutx]

I use the same username almost everywhere, and have for a decade.

I also answer to "Wingnut" in real life with a lot of my fellow squids.

CC called me that in bootcamp in 88, and it stuck.
