Mr. Dick C. Normous Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 To be honest I would be offended if you didn't. Of course I would settle for Richard too, since it is my real name. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoDaddy Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I got my name from my old restaurant - when I worked there I was called JoDaddy (forgot who made it up). I don't usually call people nicknames, though, so I'd probably stick with the real one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky Smith Old Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 If I was to meet someone in public I would probably call them by there actual name first. If not then I would possibly call them by there Neowin name depending on what it is until they told me there real name. But I think it gets pathetic for example at the Voke Tech school I went to for two years of High school, I left and now go to the local high school. But what I thought was sad is the fact that this section of people. Would call each other with these like gaming Nick Names. Like this kid would be Gadget and Dark and Dumb***ness or Sags. I can't remember all the nick names but I personally thought it was a little bit over board considering even though they knew there actual names thats what they used and all the time wether it be in school or public. Looking back now I realize that it is actually sad that the class / shop I was in was seperated into groups. We had the first two rows of druggies, Litterly. Then the middle two rows were the Anime, Obsessive, Crazy, Computer People and then the back two rows which I was part of was the well atleast in terms of the class we would be the Normal Group. We were all normal and sane. We weren't like Obbessed with Anime and stuff like the middle row was. We just liked computers. Anyway's Back onto subject I would normally call someone by there actual name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
