Why do you use handles instead of your real name?

[Empath]

That sounds good, LC. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

 

[BF Hammer]

That's clever, almost too clever.

I'll help you try it out - Hello LightChucker, how well do your directional photo-emitting devices work today?

Hey, it fits right in, it even almost sounds like one of the AA groups for those crazy flashaholics....

"Hello my fellow LightChuckers, I must confess to having a spell of backsliding and recently purchasing more torches..." LOL /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Seriously, I think its a great name!

Go for it LightChucker /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

As far as actually "chucking lights", please not at the Lighthouse as Ms. Lighthouse has the sole honor... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

OK, "LightChucker" it is. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Thanks to all for your replies to this question!

Hi LightChucker,

Welcome to the fold. Congratulations on the fine moniker. You fit right in. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Re: Why do you use handles instead of your real na

sounds right. and if you do not have a close look, you (or at least I) do not even realize the change since the new handle looks so familiar to your name and your photo outshines the name anyway!

Thanks for the endorsement and encouragement, guys - it really makes me feel good.

The only problem that I see with changing your handle is if you (or someone else) try to do search on your name of the CPF database, you are now in there with multiple names.

Good point, Roy. So, I added a note in the signature area. I know that's not going to fix it, but I want to have a handle like all the other guys. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I have 2 handles. They are slowly getting larger as I age. I have promised myself that I will work to shrink them as soon as it cools down enough to actually go outside and do some exercise in this god forsaken heat...

Or did you mean something else?

Hey Chuck,

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohgeez.gif All day long today (after making my posting this morning) I kept /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif hearing this in my mind ... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thinking.gif figured I'd better share it with others as it seems to be the only way to clear it out of my head. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

"...how much light, would a light chucker chuck, if a light chucker would chuck light?..."
LOL

Ahhhh .... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/popcorn.gif there now, I've /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banned2.gif it, peace returns...

Regards,

If you're saying what I think you're saying, Roy. That's no problem. When you change your handle, it changes it on the entire board, and your previous handle ceases to exist. I can find no reference now to a ChuckDecker, only a LightChucker. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Oh! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohgeez.gif Now I see what you're saying. If someone has referenced him by name in replies, of course they still remain the same. So, to fully search for all references to him you would need to know what all he had been called.

Lighthouse,

That's a riot! Now, both Carol and me are saying this and laughing. No telling how long this will stick.

Thanks for the "Chuckle" ! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinser2.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink2.gif

Anyone got a jingle for "Stainless"?

Re: Why do you use handles instead of your real na

Hmmmmm ... I have two names, ikendu, haven't discovered my third, yet, though ...
