What's in a name? - GoFuckYourself.com

-=HOAX=- · 10-01-2002, 02:36 PM

Do you think the moniker "HOAX" is not the best choice for an alias...? Its an old nick from my..."Guerilla Muralist" days...

Question is...does it imply that I'm not to be trusted...or on the verge of some horrible scam?

Does the fact that a wide circle of people already know me as 'Hoax' mean that I shouldn't change it? Or should I change it just cus its lame?

Guerilla Muralist?

Does that mean graffiti or Andre The Giant Has A Posse or what?

a name, in and of itself as an entity, is meaningless.

eru · 10-01-2002, 02:44 PM

eru is from Tolkien -- Eru aka Iluvatar is the creator of the world.

Gweder and Lagasek is old Cornish -- "seeker and starer "

Sometimes my posts are very eratic like they were a brain dump -- hence "seeker" whereas sometimes I am a bit more "civilized" and thus "starer".

Changing your nick to relate to your biz ventures is probably a good idea... when I scan my ICQ list -- it's a lot easier to connect the person with the website if the name connects...

Obsolete?

how flattering ...

-=HOAX=- · 10-01-2002, 03:06 PM

I've had a person or two...tell me it made them wary...that's all...

Its just hard to tell how much of the reservations a person holds can be attributed to my nick or to the fact that this is a shady industry sometimes and many fear to make business agreements with people they don't know.

Dude... your name is Hoax, you work at Xpics, and you stole Hungry's format (-=H=-). Hmmm... wonder why anyone would have reservations?

For the record... I send -=HOAX=- fat checks for content every month and he always delivers so if your thinking about doing business with the guy, stop and just do it.
