Forum names... I bet no one would like it if I'd call the by their real name

!

BTW, mah real name is ...erm... Henna. (Stupid, I know... But hey, don't blame me. Blame my folks and the priest

!)

i call most ppl by their forum names, unless i know them in person, some ppl i do give nicknames to. on oddchat, i give almost every1 a nick, but that is usually coz i cant be bothered to type their full name

. there r some ppl on oddchat who i give nicks to just to annoy them, eg cooldude is ickle dudykinz

I'll just call them by their forums names, it's easier that way. And also some people hate being called by their names here either because they hate their name or some other reason....

Hmmmm.....well most of my really close friends on the forums know my name but just for anyone who dosn't know my name tis John.

I only call people by their first names if I've talked to them outside of the forum and got to know them a bit....I'll also use their real name if I absolutely hate the online name they use...

The main people I refer to with their names are:

Searex- Luke
Gluck Shmuck- Tom
Jacob- Chris
Majic- Davey

and the rest of them don't really post anymore, though I try to keep in contact via msn and TGA.

Umm.....
I don't call anyone by their real names, even if I know them. I figure most people chose to put a forum name that's different from thier real name for a reason.

If anyone cares, my real name is Chandra or Chandra Lee. I don't really care which one you use.
