Title: Confusing people
Post by: SSH on Tue 23/01/2007 17:09:53
I just realised that I have been confusing for a very long time Ponch (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?action=profile;u=1931) and Potch (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?action=profile;u=3551). I demand that one of you immediately change your name to be less similar!  >:( ::) ??? :-[

Did you intentionally link their names to the opposite person?

I second SSH's suggestion.

I came this close to making a pathetic forum pass at a dude! >:(

Oh, like it really makes any difference on the Internet, anyway. Just go with it.

Or something.

Okay, now I'm going to change my name to LimpingFist, just to cause more confusion.

Maybe.

You know, I'm all for low-res, but when it comes to women, they need to be high-res. Really.

Hmmmm...

Last time (and the only time) I changed my nick it didn't really go too well. No one to blame really but me I guess...

Still...

Luckily I got this boring name when I came here, apparently AGS forums were the only place with no Tuomas before I came here. gladly we've got thomas and tomas and whatnot, but I guess people can tell who I am, if not because of the avatar, then possibly because I leave a scent of roses behind me when I pass by.

Now just to think that I got my nick by accident... Y'see, there where three forums I became member of those days, and I tried to register as Ghost on all of them, but the name was already taken.

On second thought, for an adventure forum, a different name might've been more suitable, but then again, Ghost still has a nice ring to it.

And no one ever confused me for a girl, despite my avatar.

Hm. No-one ever wanted to know my gender, come to think of that.

QuoteAnd no one ever confused me for a girl, despite my avatar.

So I guess that makes me number one.

I think I can safely say there's no way I can confuse anyone, I say to myself, I say, redruM, I say, What is it Jemima, Do you think anyone can mistake you for anyone else?, What are you saying, Puss in Boots, of course not!, Sorry, Brisby, it's just that I thought, You don't HAVE to think, Jade!, Ok, sorry, Trovatore, No worries Calaf, all is forgiven...

See? No confusion is made possible. I rulez.

I suggest we all change our names to Happy Days characters.  I will be The Fonz.

To avoid confusion, I from now on will to refer everyone else as "Heinz", starting... now.

Heinz, what kind of post was that? Heinz wouldn't be happy to see that happening, as these are his forums, and he doesn't run them to have people like you, Heinz or Heinz spamming.
And Heinz, I think you're right about Heinz's avatar, we need that one back (even though I wasn't there...). Oh, and Heinz, if you get confused about Heinz's and Heinz's avatar, consider yourself lucky Heinz and Heinz aren't using it (although I guess Heinz will in a short while...)

I sort of liked the "Happy Days" name idea, except everybody would want to be
"The Fonz". Ayyyyyy!  After that, the rest of the names, errrr, kinda suck.. I mean like "Potsy", and "ChaChi", and "Raaalph".

Well since I am the Fonz it's a moot point.  You can be Ralph Mouth.

I think that our new Evil friend should go back to Buckethead. I know he is trying to be funny, but when I see his posts, I think it is the actual Evil posting. Now I am getting confused.

Take Care,
