Welcome to the forums! My name's Danny, but I am known as Rettick in the forums. But people still call me Dan, because I ask them to, to confuse the newbies...
So if you hear Dan mentioned, it's probably me. But not Daniel, because if Daniel's mentioned, it'll be Daniel Brown. Danny could be either, but no-one uses it. Confused yet?
I expect other people will warn you about me, so I won't bother...
