View Full Version : Your Board Name Or Your Real Name?
When you go to bar nights or Ron and Fez events do you prefer being called by your board name or your real name?
How do you introduce yourself?
I usually say "Hi, I'm Greg...Gvac on the board."
90% of the people call me Gvac unless I know them really well, and even then some of them still use my board name.
I guess "Gvac" is a lot cooler sounding than "Greg."

No matter what they call you G you are cool in my book
It does make for strangeness if you don't use your real name as your board name.
I think you kinda need to weave both into conversations- the better you get known, the more likely your real name is used.

Johnnie, you're the man.
Every time Crankcase played the Hard Rock, whether on 57th or in your current location, you were nothing but a gentleman.
Thanks so much for always being such a buddy.
I could technically use both as my board name is an extension of my real name.
But I've yet to attend a Ron & Fez event.

I wouldn't talk to anyone when I got there, but my wife made me talk to people. Then I made a mistake and asked Randy if he was Hippo. Then I made a bigger mistake and started talking to Hippo.

For people I am just meeting, I say "Hi, I'm Jon" *blank stare* "Hottub"
"Oh shit. Good to meet you, bro."
When all is said and done, most just call me Tub. I'm fine with that.
There are only 1 or 2 who call me by my real name. People I hang with or talk to on a semi-regular basis just say Tub.

I definitely prefer using "Chris" but I got used to "yojimbo" pretty quickly that night so I would go either way next time I get to meet up with the ronfez.net crowd.

Ive only been to one event, last years softball game. And because of Paltalk, the first few people that saw me (deb, casey, DH215) all were just like "Yo Skeet!" But when introducing myself I say Nick because I would just feel stupid introducing myself as Triple Skeet.
The only person I did that with was Lee Mels, who was talking to me and said I looked familiar and asked my board name. As soon as I told him he looked like he just drank some sour milk and quickly walked away from me. :lol:
