Peter You posted the same topic in October ... and I just don't understand why ... what I mean is, there's no guarantee we'd use our real names anyway.

Peterpools Posted August 2, 2018 Author Share Posted August 2, 2018 Sorry for re-posting - sometime I forget. I know there are lots of Peter's, John's, Sam's, Harry's and the list goes on. But when responding to a thread and posting, using your name is a lot more friendly. If I am responding to a comment by let's say Joel, the odds of there being more then one Joel I am responding to is small. But if that should be the reason, then just use Joel_W as an example (my brother of course). I feel a bit silly responding: Hi mrplastic ... Just my two cents worth Peter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Just call me Ray Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 If I can interject...sometimes real names are just boring 🙂 Plus a lot of the user names here have a lot of personal or professional (or both!) significance. Me...I'm really boring and my user name quite simply tells you as it is 🙂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HOLMES Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Because I am a Cop and don't want to use MY real name. HOLMES is quite appropriate for ME. .... Sherlock HOLMES...Detective .. I think I have seen this thread on another forum too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
southwestforests Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 A name is merely an arbitrary set of sounds and symbols anyway, so what difference does it make. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
