I signed up for a new email account recently. I chose the name ana - because I'm a recovering anorexic, lass - because that is what they call a girl around here and another random word at the end.

so my full username was analass**** last part hidden to protect the innocent! ie me!

Anyway it turns out that the full name I had chosen was actually a slang word for the pain one suffers after an excess of anal intercourse!

I would write more, but I'm busy clearing out my inbox of messages from men that would like to get to know me better!

And no. The last part of the name wasn't pain. It was totally random and this was just an odd co-incidence!

Bah! Rolling Eyes

lol, I've just actually remembered that back when I used to work in a Japanese restaurant (I've been studying the Japanese language for 15 years and I used to waitress to help improve my fluency) that we had a sushi chef called Massaki. I used to pronounce his name wrong and the word that I said was actually a Japanese slang term for masturbation.

Technically it meant to rub vigourously in a circular motion (ie when polishing) but the slang word was fairly rude.

So I used to call 'Massaki?' and he used to say 'Yes"' and everyone used to laugh. It took me 3 weeks before I realised that joke! Embarassed

For a while my user name here was "Incontinentia Buttox" after a fun (read- drunken) night here April 1st, 2 years ago. A Mod, I think Lotta, was kind enough to change it back in the morning. Very Happy

I did. I first came on here as "Barry Kelly", since his name kept showing up in emails from barristers. That guy died several years in a row, all on 21 April on several different expressways. He also died in the tsunami.

I held on to it for a long time, never really liking it after six months. But I felt I was stuck with it.

Then one day one of the other members here changed his name, and I thought what the hell, I'll become Captain Pike. I think it's a better fit. My friends and I loved to make fun of the Captain Pike episode, and joke about how he should get a job as an ATM. I even conducted my first two baits as Captain Pike, and the second one got published on Scamorama.

Anyway, the mod who changed it for me also thought it was a better fit.

I don't plan on changing it again.

Never regretted mine. Very Happy

I used it in one of my first baits and thought it was appropriate when I signed up here. I still bait occasionally with this name, though I have been rumbled a few times by lads clever enough to Google me.

If anyone does regret their choice of Eater name, just PM a mod. We can improve it for you. Wink

@ daisyDuck like my old mother says "a dirty mind is a joy forever" Wink

There was a bill at the eater already, so what to do, I called myself bill2 that's short for bill too Laughing

I don't care, I got the title "Old Nag", doesn't bother me either, I am one LOL_sign

Just nice that they noticed it, at least one moderator is reading my mail Wink

If you make a request a moderator can change your eater name for you, but why, your actions count, not the fake name.

I still have no idea how the hell I came up with my name, just something that popped as I signed up.

Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 2:23 am

Oh? That's my real name...

Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 3:54 am

After finding this Bebo page on a recent search for pictures of SamSpudz crisp packets, I really want to change it. I utterly despise that style of 'writing' and do not want to be associated with it in any way.

Any kind mods out there could change it to Spudz for me? pretty pretty please

Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 5:24 am

Never. I would have changed it if I had regretted. Although it's a bit NSFW.

I always wanted to be called Larry...... "Hey Larry!" "Larry here is the money I owe you". "larry can you look after my girlfriend while I am out of the country?" I do like that name. Of course my parents thought that larry was not a good name for gentry.......(sigh).

I chose mine because it was a name I was using to bait, still do, infact. When I started, I was half the cast of Coronation St.

Now I realise any lad who finds this site will blow me out straight away, but there must still be plenty who never have. If a new user asked me 'should I bait using my username?', I would say probably not.

The downside is constantly being asked about developments in a programme I don't always watch (though the wife keeps serving dinner while it's on, so often it's watch or starve..) Smile

I started off using my baiting Character's name for my username. I was advise by a Mod to change it just in case, and I went for something odd/wacky and picked a character from my favourite Trilogy (in 5 parts).

My only regret is it's length. I really ought to get it shortened to PVJ, if a passing Mod would care to oblige. Laughing

Edit:
Actually I think I'd like to become "HitchHicker" as it gives me more flexibility with Avatars.

Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 10:38 am

Seriously, we're not supposed to use our real name? Why didn't anyone tell me?

Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 11:24 am

My username was something I told my first lad about, I told my lad fiance that I had a friend from her home town who's name was Murray Guru we all called him "Mugu" perhaps she had heard of "Mugu" when she was living there, she replied that she didn't know him.

My second bait was the same lad but this time baiting as Murry Guru, we had a long romance until I was involved in a horrible car accident and subsequently died, I left the lad a large inheritance but he didn't bite, so I baited again with another name.

I never baited as Murry Guru after that.

Sometimes I consider becoming Murry just to simplify things but that would go against the whole idea of being Murry in the first place.

I spelt Murry without the usual "a" (Murray) because "murrayguru @ gmail.com was already taken when I chose the email address.

A lot of thought went into my name Wink

I once had a very worrying avatar, but that's another story Wink

Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 11:29 am

Yes, I have Smile

I should make a list of baiters who have, at one point or another, thought I was a female, and addressed me as such (would have been tempting not to contradict - to get more insights into the human psyche...)
I am going to post the list of these baiters in alphabetical order and in large colourful letters later Wink

I like my username, though I did have to alter it partially to protect the innocent (not me).

You seem to have some interesting stories surrounding your name. I'm more interested in how you found that out.

BTW, how YOU doin'?

Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 2:30 pm

I sorta regret my name. I wish I had signed up as "Raven Lunatic", but I've been Chainy so long, I might as well keep it.

Don't be a pain in the ass now! Wink

Actually I mentioned the name to my brother and he collapsed laughing and told me what it meant - so maybe I should ask him how he knew! Shocked

I was thinking of using it as a baiter name but the emails that I got had very little to do with baiting... Embarassed

I'm with jojo on this one. Co-incidence? I think not. Not that there's anything wrong with that......................

jojo.....how YOU doin'?

It seems a bit off that someone RANDOMLY throws two words together, one being anal and one being ass. Laughing

I'm sure that Harry can explain it all.

Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 3:10 pm

You can PM me for all the details.

Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2008 4:15 pm

I detest mine, I was in such a hurry to sign up I never gave it any thought.
I'm a science fiction lover and got into it by reading the Lensman series by E.E.Smith so I'm pondering have a name change to one of their characters actually the qualities needed to be a Lensman suit my idea of what is required of a baiter

qualities required of Lensmen include intelligence, utter incorruptibility, a high drive to succeed, and the highest drive to fight evil

okay mebbe 3 out of 4

Oooooh E.E.(doc) Smith. that takes me back. I will have to go and dust off those old paperbacks. I started with Heinline myself.....
