What's with all the name changing?

New forum must have made it too easy or Pogues going soft . . . revert 'em all to Fresh Meat status, just for lack of commitment!

 

that's what it is..... I thought it was just me going mental.

 

put all the name changers in your "foe" list...traders!

 

It does make it easier to remember people's real names, which is a nice thing...since there are a few "Scott"s on the board, I'll probably just be leaving mine as is!

 

I changed mine because "xoconostle" was cumbersome. Trying to speak that word leads to chipped teeth, stuttering, and sprained tongues. I'm surprised to see some of the other changes 'cause I liked screen names like "manmachine" and "lowenbrow" but to each their own.

 

I am curious about your old moniker...I sometimes read it as zo-ko-naussel (long o's up front)...is that how it went, or was the "t" pronounced? Also interpreted it as zon-o-castle sometimes too...

 

Not for me, I just said "Chocolate Nestle."

 

I thought Manmachine was cool too---

But the way i look at It, if i can use my real name--Jay as much as possible, i would do so.

And besides, I only have one Manmachine toy and everyone expects me to be a hardcore "Manmachine" addict ...which doesnt make sense.

 

"Jeff" isn't as classy as "Blooddrinker6969" though I've considered it. Also, I'd be THE Jeff than, screw Rhino and the others!

 

"sho-ko-NO-stlay," the "sho" being alternately more like "cho." Nahuatl (Aztec) word for edible fruit of Opuntia (prickly pear) cactus. It's still used for one variety in Mexico.

That's really funny.

 

ha. there's also a Jeff_N already, which would be my last initial... creeped me out when i first saw that. not me!

on a sidenote: stop changing names! so confusing. i have a bunch of old RxH figures and bemons I want to unload at cost... but now i don't know who i should sell to. oh well.

 

I used to be MANMACHINE Rhino!!!

 

Hi, my board name is Joe.
Hi, my board name is whthalo.
The first one is much easier to pronounce.

 

hi my name is scott. i am half asshole. half prick.

 

mine is actually a portion of my family name and my nickname (in that order)...but I'm also a Gatchaman fan so I guess I'm lucky to have my family name

 

No more half dream?

 

but that would make it 3 halves...

 

Maybe it replaced one half.

 

i had a dream. then i woke up.

 

Im going to change my name to a symbol.

then everyone can call me "the member formally known as tavaro"

 

ha. ok, now i know who everyone is. everything has already been sold to knunt.

 

I'll change my real name to akum6n. I think that will make it easier for everyone.

 

LOL, Ow . you made me bite my tongue! Just when I was getting used to xoconostle too. Oh well I've always thought Dean was a cool name anyway.

 

ok since everyone is changing their names to real names. I want to change mine to "Count Bemon",,,, Lord was already taken so...

 

There's also a COUNT already
