| My real name is Greg. My birth certificate says "Gregory". A name which is only used by my mom and government employees.
I completely missed the gamer tag thing always felt a little guilty for not being more creative. However, most of the names I saw others using were very much tied to the activity it was assoicated with and perhaps an interest that would not last more than couple years. It just seemed to me the name should outlive the current activity. My lifespan on most forums is about 2 years. Not sure why it just happens. Everyone leaves, the site gets a new admin nothing is the same, I pick up a new hobby, etc. It's kind of sad to think about but look at this group. Not many have been here more than 6 months. Some quite a bit longer. Just saying, its a rare and very cool thing that's going on in our little corner of RR. Enjoy it while it lasts and every day do something to make it last longer.
The first forum I joined, my user name was "Greg". I guess I got in early, because I've never been able to get that again. I actually only registered to do some searching and didn't think I'd staying. I was wrong. Next forum I registered with, Greg was taken, so I fell back to a shortened version of my full name Gregor. Years ago I had a mentor named Gregor. Great guy, learned a lot. I liked the man and his name, so I stole it. I have friend that occasionaly calls me Gregor. But its more a Greg....orrrr. Not sure why. Anyway it seemed easy. The 99 came from nessessity. I'm Gregor on many forums, but if that's taken I'll add the 99. Its easy to remember.
