Forums/Chat Nicknames

Post by Tailsfan101 »

What nicknames/names other than your username have you been called on the forums or chat? Someone else misspelling your name counts.

I'll start: Tails and Tailsfan are the usual nicknames for me, but I've also been called "Talisfan" (way too many times), "Goals" (thanks, pepperonipi), and "Atils" (thanks again, pepperonipi).

EDIT: And "Fails" (once again, thanks pepperonipi).

"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:11-12

I have no regrets.

I go by Booknerd most of the time. There was this one time a while ago when I was mistaken for SOnerd, but that was when I was new to the Chat.

There was also this incident where a bunch of people happened to spell booknerd incorrectly. It went from "boknerd" to "bokmerd," "boknees," "bokmeed," back to "bokmerd" and eventually "bokmerp".

My username's pretty short so there aren't too many nicknames for me, though I've been referred to as "foorin" (thanks, sneep) and "firebird".

I forget how, but people started thinking that my name was "lizzy" (presumably short for elizabeth) on the discords. It's not my name, but now people call me "Liz" a lot, which is a little confusing...
People have tried to shorten "EwwPhysics" by calling me Ew or Physics, but it doesn't really work lol.
I guess I've been called biobrat (as in biology) once or twice :oops:
(this is all on the discords btw, I don't think people have called me anything but EwwPhysics on the forums and I don't go on irc)

Yeah that's about it.
