Mine originally was Scoobynutta but I can't rememmber what email address i registered with so when I ask for a password reminder I never receive it

Had to reregister and stick the 555 on the end which I'm not happy about!

My usernames elsewhere are scoobynutta, it's my name on AOL which I joined with 8 years ago.

Mine's crap. I chose anything as my only intention was to sign up and ask two or three questions when I bought my car.......... almost 9000 posts later.... DOH!

People get to know who you are and I've bought and sold a few things on here with great success so hopefully you gain some form of reputation as a decent sort through your username.

I went to a P1 meet a few years ago. Got to the hotel the lads were staying in, their cars were there but I didn't know what guys looked like and didn't know their real names and they didnt know mine (no signal on the phone). So had to go to reception and ask them to call a room belonging to one of the owners of 'them blue cars out there with the big spoilers'. Put me through to a bloke and said there's a Mr.Scoobynutta down in reception for you lol.

Mines sh1te.

I'd just bought an STI, and I was "Something else" Lover on another Forum.

Wanted to change mine for ages, but I'd lose my post count. Why does such an unimportant thing matter ?

Oh yes, and before some smart @rse say's it. My user name on another Forum wasn't C0cklover either. I've heard it before

Mines pretty boring but I like it. I sat there for about 5 mins thinking of a cool username when I registered but ended up with just my name. At least its not embarrassing when I go to meets!

Yeah, I quit a few years ago though, as has Jamie, to all intents and purposes.

My first forum names were actually my real name, on various different forums where i had a much higher profile than I do here. Then a thread I had contributed on was published in a magazine and there was my real name in a nationally published mag. I've had an article published in a national car mag before and the thread wasn't anything that controversial; but it's just that if I post on a forum I expect it to stay there. So now I use an old gaming handle that I used to use in the 90's and I prefer to be relatively anonymous.

For reference though, Silent Running is a bloody great film if you like left-field 70's sci fi.
