Have you ever changed your nick? - GoFuckYourself.com

Evil Chris · 07-06-2010, 08:10 AM

I've had the same nick forever. Never had any reason to change it.

What are some of the reasons why someone would? I mean if you incorporate the company you work for into your name and then you end up working somewhere else, I'd understand that much.

Who used to be who? This could get funny or ugly.

Wizzo · 07-06-2010, 08:11 AM

Nope, been Wizzo forever...

CaptainHowdy · 07-06-2010, 08:14 AM

Lensman
MangoTube
CaptainCrunch

Ross · 07-06-2010, 08:15 AM

Nope. Its also my real name.

Jack Sparrow · 07-06-2010, 08:19 AM

I never changed mine before up untill a few days ago.

Reason: people have been putting me in the "he is a pirate, using stolen content" for months now here on gfy. So i thought it would be funny to change my name to Jack Sparrow

Amputate Your Head · 07-06-2010, 08:21 AM

Different websites = different nicks & different email addresses. I've never used my real name online.

Barefootsies · 07-06-2010, 08:26 AM

Nope.

Same nick on every forum.

Brujah · 07-06-2010, 08:26 AM

We can do that?

Jman · 07-06-2010, 08:28 AM

I did as I thought I was getting to old to go by a nickname ;-)

Klen · 07-06-2010, 08:29 AM

Yes i did tons of time,but on gfy so far i didn't changed nick.

candyflip · 07-06-2010, 08:30 AM

As dumb as I think the meaning of my nick is these days, it's mine and I've never changed it.

Most people who change their nick have been banned a bunch of times or have had a new asshole ripped and just can't deal with the shame they've brought on themselves...so they slink off and come back with a new nick.

CurrentlySober · 07-06-2010, 08:33 AM

I have. I was ThatGuyInTheCorner which was originally my biz name... It was also my site name - thatguyinthecorner.com

Anyway, I developed a drinking problem, which I have finally overcome. So I changed my name as a reminder to myself, not to go that way again.

SBJ · 07-06-2010, 08:36 AM

I use to be Silent Bob jedi and for years at shows I was known as SBJ or just Bob (even though my name is Matt). I just thought SBJ sounded more grown up.

GrouchyAdmin · 07-06-2010, 08:37 AM

Yeah. I had TD change me in, well, reg date. Started posting as a WM despite my background, but went back to tech as it was both easier and more lucrative.

Chosen · 07-06-2010, 08:39 AM

I didn't

Jerry's Intensity · 07-06-2010, 08:41 AM

Once, and then everyone changed theirs, so I changed mine back, fuck them.

Rochard · 07-06-2010, 09:05 AM

When I first got online in 1995 I was Zak3. Zachary was my "pet nickname" my wife used to call me (I called her "Bambii") and 3 was my favorite number. My first website was a daily bikini website called "Zachary's Daily Dose". The only person in the industry who knew me as "Zak3" or "Zachary" was Lightspeed, or maybe Minte.

I changed it to Rochard after working for Lightspeed Cash. I had stopped using "Zak3" and "Zachary" (Richard is also a nickname and it was just getting silly already using two nicknames), and Steve Lightspeed wanted me to come up with something to be called. He wanted to call me "Richard Lightspeed". I love Steve to death, but no. So on the spot I came up with "Rochard", pronounced "ROCKhard". More or less, I changed the "i" in "Richard" to an "o".

I think Tanker (or maybe it was Steve) who came up with the phrase "I'm always hard at work". You can take that any way you want.

ottopottomouse · 07-06-2010, 09:30 AM

Mostly used the same nick everywhere although sometimes i've found it makes it a bit easy for nutjobs to follow you about.

baddog · 07-06-2010, 09:33 AM

Back before XBIZ was XBIZ I was the mod for their board and had to use a different name because the system would not allow baddog. I presumed it was because of the word "dog" in it.

Years later they allowed me to become baddog there too.

DateDoc · 07-06-2010, 09:38 AM

Once - used to be BusterPorn.
