canadonis Posted January 17, 2014 Share Some Names can be very funny, I know of guy who did the european contiki tour great fun for him because his name was FAGMIE and even after introducing himself woman found it strange to call him because often it came out sounding like '**** Me' and it get funnier because his surname is Du TOIT Eventually called him Vibrator, would 'vibrator' be an inappropriate hubname?

No, entirely appropriate for a ride past Misty Cliffs and Scarborough with your skinny road bike tyres pumped to 120 PSI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RudoJ Posted January 17, 2014 Share My Hub name is basically my real name and first letter of surnameBeen called Rudo(lph) by varsity mates. Its also a shortened version of my username for work emails and stuff.So howzit (once again) folks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellar Posted January 17, 2014 Share Its also a shortened version of my username for work emails and stuff. It is so easy to guess user names and passwords if you give people half the puzzle already. And most people use the same/similar username/password combinations across multiple accounts. I support this 'real name as hub name' initiative (count me out though, this isn't my first day on the internet...). Pastebin, get ready for a data dump. As far as the "real name would prevent internet hissy-fits" argument, if A guy is going to be a king sized douchebag, he's going to be one if he uses his own name or a fake one. I mean look at BigH? Seems like most everyone here knows his real name, seems like he had a number of usernames here too, and he was still the king of the trolls.

P.A.K. Posted January 17, 2014 Share I don't believe its safe putting your real name out there. We all remember the Take My Lollipop thread. By the way, for interest sake, it took me all of 1 minute to find a member whose name was made known here, on Facebook. One can find so much info about a person online. Rather play safe SwissVan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
