Could we please have the first names of users

[McDuck]

on their profile page? just so we know the first name when we go to meet them?
Thankyou....

[Skunk]

I've got mine in my user notes. That way only Senior Members can read it. Either that or put it in your Bio bit

[NZsarge]

Just call me Sarge:niceone::headbang:

[99TLS]

just call me 99 ok 86

[YellowDog]

If I give you my name, does that mean when you meet me you won't call me Ugly Fcuker?

[merv]

"Could we please have the first names of users?" you say in this title.

What's your first name anyway? Why not just use your first name as your user ID like I do?

[McJim]

Do what I did. Go on lots of rides and organise a few yourself then meet these people in meatspace - that way you'll learn all their names.

By the way - looked at your profile. Interesting dichotomy there - a 'cellist on a Suzuki.

Q. How do you fit entire orchestral 'cello section on a Suzuki?
A. Make one the leader and the rest will just crawl right up his arse!

You can then make a joke about trumpet players if you like

Q. What's the difference between a soprano singer and a Ferrari?
A. Most Trumpet players have never been in a Ferrari!

Can you guess my first name?:scratch:

Thankyou....

gidday McDuck, pleased to meet ya... I'm crashe, thats crash with a e.


Im happy to be called crashe when I meet up with other bikers.



I was at a bike run fundraiser the other day, and this voice boomed out crashe, from the far side of the huge carpark..... so I knew it was a KBer.... lol. :scooter:

[Edbear]

[Usarka]

[Edbear]

Bear?.......


I's my wife's biggest Teddy Bear!!!:clap:



Rob C on the TL, NOT ReCTaL :whistle:


Thought never crossed my mind... but now you mention it...;)

[NighthawkNZ]

I don't have a real name... all mine are made up by someone... :scratch:

[Nasty]

I was nicknamed nasty many years before I started on here so I guess I will stick to it ... I met a kber yesterday at the local shops and he asked if I was on KB and knew me as nasty .. If I feel like it I tell people my name if I don't feel like I want them to know I won't ,, not that that happens often as you know ;) but if you are down as a buddy you will see it anyways :)

[yungatart]

The relationships on here are made with user names, not first names.
Often, when I am introduced to someone I forget their real name anyway.
I'm quite happy to be known as " 'tart from HB".

[Nasty]

" 'tart from HB".

Wouldn't have it any other way eh 'tart :dodge:

[Edbear]

I'm quite happy to be known as " 'tart from HB".


You're a pencil?:mellow:

[xwhatsit]

You're a pencil?:mellow:

And she's hard, baby!



My name's Tom. It's such an uncommon, rare and unusual name that I didn't make it as my KB name for fear the police would track me down.

[sunhuntin]

i answer to pretty much anything EXCEPT my real name, lol. i live by an abbreviation of my full name, and am tagged as such as work.

i do answer to sun [though crashe will argue that] and while in canada lived for 6 months as "kiwi"... thats what people called me, and what i replied to. my partner there thought kiwi was my real name for months.

i find it easier to work on usernames, as often i can match a user with their avatar and remember it easier.

[Swoop]

No.


John Smith.

[Bren]

Im sick of my first name........so jus call me anything, as long as it ain't bitch, asshole, wanker or any other derogatory name....


....otherwise ya can fall back on Southern Rider...






...or Bren

[Hitcher]

When people get to know me well, I may let them call me "Sir".

[Goblin]

on their profile page? just so we know the first name when we go to meet them?
Thankyou....In a word, no.

[Virago]

People usually refer to me as "Sshhh - here he comes now...".

[Subike]

Its so common that you would forget it anyway.
I prefer to use our KB name, as it alludes to a bit of personality
and puts us all apart from the crowd,
And also some cases, our bike will tell you who we are.

[sunhuntin]

good point, subike. i think this year ive met about 3 different johns, but im never 100% i get the name right, so user name basis it is! only time i will use first name is if i see them regular off site.

Yep she wouldnt answer to her real name or her user name but she did answer to OI...... hehehehehe


PS: But, for a really shy and quiet person....... I did get her chatting away to me....

[sunhuntin]

[Unit]

Well there's Steve, Steven, Steve, and Steve, then There's Doug, and Doug, I also know Mike, Mike and Michael, oh and Ann, Mark, Mark and Mark, no confusion at all really :banana:

[Joni]

In a word, no.I agree....

However its wierd, even when people get introduced to me with my real name within 2 minutes Im Joni again...:blink:

[doc]

What"s in a name, a rose by any other name, would smell as sweet, so said Will.

[Toaster]

on their profile page? just so we know the first name when we go to meet them?
Thankyou....

Some members won't want their personal details listed publicly, even if it is only their first names.

The buddy system takes care of that - people who want you to know who they are will add you to their buddy list.

[fireball]

the name is fireball and thats i was called long before kb.....

plus when walking in the pub the other night and having someone yell out OI FIREBALL you know its a fellow kber... oh and pleased to meet you Mr kiddo on the mighty bike! :laugh:

[BuFfY]

My name is Laura, why is it a big deal letting people know your name? First name is surely fine. But I agree with Toaster in it being only in the buddy list and choosing who knows all ya details

[Ixion]

I have many lives and many names . But there is only one 'Ixion' .

[vifferman]

Mine is Hey (as in "Hey - you!")

[jrandom]

My name's Dan.

Feel free to use it when talking to me in person, instead of just calling me 'Random'.

I've ended up getting into the habit of answering to both, though.

[fireball]

its not the only thing you answer to either :whistle:.... or rather :shutup::dodge:

[jrandom]

its not the only thing you answer to either :whistle:

Silence in the cheap seats, please!

:girlfight:

[mstriumph]

erm :shutup: looks like it's mostly a 'no'

not suprising really

most folks are here to get AWAY from real life for a while ......

here i'm mstriumph

no secret - just like putting on different clothes for different functions ...

[mstriumph]

I have many lives and many names . But there is only one 'Ixion' .
hmmmmmmmmmm .... bound to a burning wheel for all eternity :mellow:

[sunhuntin]

I agree....

However its wierd, even when people get introduced to me with my real name within 2 minutes Im Joni again...:blink:

[TonyB]

Mines Oswald

[EJK]

Hi McDuck5n.

I'm EJ, I'm known as EJ, my ID starts with EJ, you know me as EJ and I like to be called EJ.

EJ = An Asian abbreviated name. It used to be a name that many kiwis can't be bothered pronouncing it right, so now I won't be bothered expanding the abbreviation lol


Mine is Hey (as in "Hey - you!")

or "You!" or "Bro!" or "Dude!" or "Oi!" etc etc...... :lol::lol::lol:

[janno]

I can't let people know my real name, it's too secret.

So I chose to disguise it heavily.

signed,

Jan O'Connor.

What?

Oh. Bugger.

[Toaster]

I agree with Toaster

Wise, very wise. :beer:

[FilthyLuka]

hmmmmmmmmmm .... bound to a burning wheel for all eternity :mellow:

Two burning wheels, he rides two strokes remember :P

My names denden. filthyluka has been used for pretty much everything on the net though, would be a lot more usefull if my name was luka, but hey...

[mstriumph]

not if that song was anything to go by .........:no:

and FOURSTROKES have two wheels too .................... mine was a classical reference, not a mechanical dissertation.

[FilthyLuka]

amine was a classical reference, not a mechanical dissertation.

i was taking the mickey, implying that a two strokes wheels would be on fire as it would have exploeded...

duh

[James Deuce]

implying that a two strokes wheels would be on fire

Which would make them suitable conveyances for Ixion.

[Big Dave]

>> Could we please have the first names of users <<

[u4ea]

Think my club mates were a bit miffed on boxing day when Chanceyy was introducing me to fellow kbers who wondered by as U4ea!!!

[Disco Dan]

My name is Dan.

Tricky one to figure out I know.. :whistle:

[oldguy]

I was given one at birth, but every one else uses it, go figure that, now they just call me oldguy, f**ked if i know why.
I keep dying my hair gray but the black keeps coming through.

My life is an open book, but no one wants to read it.

Tell me, are they anti KB at all?

[Matt_TG]

My online handle in other places is splatman or splatty. I didn't think it was wise using that on a bike forum - didn't want it to be an omen lol.

So, I used *all* my imagination and came up with my username on KB. The TG part was added coz Matt was taken... I am in Papamoa now but it's sorta part of "TG" so yeah.
