To be honest, I don't like the name I use, but like MrNobo1024, I use it to be consistant.

My oldest nickname at one point was Bucknut due to very odd circumstances (don't ask unless you really want to know) and I got tired of people changing the B to an F or assuming I was some perv.

Then I started working for an ISP and had to pick a 'business' ID, and they just took the first eight characters of my name. No biggie.

Then, as I went to other sites and tried to register, it kept saying that the stuff I wanted was taken, except for these eight letters.

There's only been one site where they didn't work - really wish I remembered which. heh.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
