We are a friendly community and really would like to know folks on a first name basis. Take a minute, new and old, and edit your profile to include your name in your Sig line. Act like we are meeting face to face when we exchange thoughts on the Forum :wave

And as a suggestion when setting up your Username, the Internet is full of scam seeking opportunists and stories of those who might get your email address and some info as to your interests if you use that as your Username...just food for thought. We like individual Usernames in general, your name is OK as well... the email addy approach looks a bit dry:brow.

Adding your location as well may help locals in your area meet and greet or just help all of us know where you call home.


Thanks and come on in :nod

Hi Steve!

Thanks for bringing this up. That is a little pet peeve of mine - not knowing what to call someone.

You may call me:

TRACY!
 
Hi, my name is...

Hi my forum name is Duck Dodgers, I was formerly known as Twistngo. My IRL name is John. I enjoy tire and oil threads.

I'm done with 'catchy' usernames. Since a couple of years, I only use my real name as username. I see no need to hide my identity, and since I'm already in the address database of the spam community (thanks to funny people who like to mail jokes to their complete address book), there's no point in hiding it anymore.

But you can call me Mike The Bike if you like... ;)

Most know my name, some ask about the big red X and what it stands for. Well, I saw it somewhere on the web and liked it. It stands for nothing at all. :wave
 
You can call me anything you want. I use Jay as a business name( many years ago there was another Allen working for my company, so I use my middle name at work) My ex wife (the succubus) has a few choice names for me and my daughter calls me dad. The grandsons call me grandpa!
I don't care what I am called as long as it is in friendship!:wave
 
Nice idea!

Call me Jay (not Ishmael). I put the mapper in front of my name since that's my day job. Maps can suck me into their world in a second. I love staring at maps and thinking of all the possibilities they hold--from roads to rivers, to the great unexplored restaurants, sites (and sights) that I haven't seen or experienced. Put a map in front of me and I start dreaming up the possibilities and am ready to travel (which I also do a lot of).
