That's why chosing your nick is so important. It has to be something that can carry you through career changes and not make people look at you like you're...well..."CockInAssBoy."

hahaha, yeah....

I have always been partial to the real name, or nickname, thing......

Hiring John Smith just sounds so much more professional to me than hiring HappyPeeker...well, you get the idea

I even have a heard time calling people by their board nicks in person, i feel all wierd....

are other industries like this with the whole board nick thing?
