Hey guys, I need you help with something

from WinCustomize Forums
OK

I like my nickname and all but it was brought to my attention that it could be inferred do mean something else... something not so nice.

I always took it as like royalty or just another way of saying Joe Blow.

Anyway, I just wanted to know what you think.

I have a poll up on my Modblog blog at
http://joetheblow.modblog.com

I guess it not a big deal, but it is in some ways to me.

what do you think?

How true...I mean just look at 'our' user names having posted in this thread. I'm sure we all instantly make some type of association with them, whatever that may be

Don't worry about it

you are you, and we have come to know and respect you for it

why change your name just because some people can manage to read something odd into it? that says far more about them than it does about you

also, if you change your name, how i am going to know you are you?

Keep joetheblow, would a rose by any other name smell just as sweet? Sure it would, but if you say ok from now on rose is to be known as 'hooblah zumlba crap', it just wouldn't be the same. If someone wants to interpret it that way let em, hell most people just call me hor.

I don't think I really pay attention to nicks. I never looked at it twice

you know, this kinda pushed a button for me... a good one

hashonboat, I really do apologize for picking your nic as an example a while back, it was not
fair and totally wrong on my part.

Joe, seriously, remember no matter what there is always the old adage "Juck em if they can't take a Foke"... really really

Don't worry about it mate. You can't satisfy all the people, all the time. Sometimes you have to be satisfied yourself. As far as the sexual connotations, don't get hung up on them or people's perverted minds. I think its a cool nick.

wow

thanks guys!
*blushing*

I thought I would ask. I never intended to offend anyone by making up the name.

PLUS I have a website using the same name and I am have children's stuff on it as well as helping lost children get found.


its supposed to be a family website and I just didn't want to send the wrong message.

anyway, I guess if I explain myself (How the name was generated) it will be OK.

na, it's OK already, but if you do decide to explain it, then maybe they can wrap their mind around it
