Gavmeister Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 My wife always cracks herself if people phone and ask for Pappa Bear................ Hahaha, that's funny......Papa Bear.
Agteros Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 There is no real way of policing it though.Yup, very easy to set up a Koos Koekemoer, etc profile on google+ / outlook.com / facebook / twitter etc, and then to use that "real" name to trickle down to a forum Grebel 1
Pure Savage Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Problem is if everyone suddenly changed their profile names to their real names we wouldn't know who is who. You also learn Avatars, like Dale is that creepy canondale rider, Wayne is a rising moon, Vetseun is that 00:01 thingy. Tumbleweed is that naked guy, flat is a beer, Dips is that Spartan dude, Slowbee is a smurf etc... Wayne Potgieter and Blackbeard 2
MTBc Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Mine is easy. had 10 punctures on one 30 km ride ride. so I am flat 29 yoh. I though my 4 on a 20km was bad. Mine is MTB + initials "bc". MTBbc sounds like a really old bike or a stutter, so i dropped a b

MTBc Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 After decades and countless denials I will admit it - I am Lance Armstrong This is thehub. Not Oprah.
Andrew Steer Posted January 16, 2014 Author Posted January 16, 2014 Problem is if everyone suddenly changed their profile names to their real names we wouldn't know who is who.Leave the profile pics as they are for a week or two... Or change the title above the avatar to the old hub name.
JGR Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 This is thehub. Not Oprah.Could have fooled me reading the threads the last few days .... actually more like Jerry Springer fanievb and MTBc 2
MTBc Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 You're not alone... I have sexdaily too. I mean dyslexia. Dmanit.
jimmycool Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Leave the profile pics as they are for a week or two... Or change the title above the avatar to the old hub name.That would work - changing the title, as quite a few people have the 00:01 avatar at the moment. Andrew Steer 1
Karooryder Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) Dunno...I have this irrational fear that some WebCrawler or Bot will take my name and surname, attach it in different combinations to gmail/yahoo/homail-addresses and then spam the hell out of me...And then build pyramids with it... Edit: Spamming...I mean spelling... Edited January 16, 2014 by Karooryder
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 PERSONALLY there are so many HIGHLY STRUNG PSYCHOPATHS HERE I REMOVED MY NAME off my profileI've been the subject of such a rant, thanks to a radically misconstrued post that was purposefully taken out of context. Some of you may remember.
Gavmeister Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Well I am me. GEN is short for Genevieve. Can't think of anyone who actually calls me by my full name cause it takes too long. Nice name, same as my daughters, I just call her Vievie.
flat29 Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 You also learn Avatars, like Dale is that creepy canondale rider, Wayne is a rising moon, Vetseun is that 00:01 thingy. Tumbleweed is that naked guy, flat is a beer, Dips is that Spartan dude, Slowbee is a smurf etc... haha. that is a medal. think tour of legents Andrew Steer and Wayne Potgieter 2
MTBc Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 that is why I have my name on my profile page. not hiding at all No you don't. It's under the "Private settings" heading - i.e. only you see it on your own profile, no-one else.
Gandalf Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) If you use a name eventually you will become the name. I SHALL BE GANDALF THE GREY!!! apparantly i have a grey hair, so i'm well on my way Edited January 16, 2014 by Gandalf
