    Pretty much all of the mods except for chevalier, who used to be "chevalier des Trois Tours". I don't think Ara or HB ever had a different one either, though (by his own account) HB recently came close when he changed his avatar to a raven.

    And of course there's me. :D I'll never change my PDN.

    I haveused this nick in some form or other since 1999 in just about every forum I participate in - not much chance of me ever changing it.

    (And coincidentally, I am more likely to respoond if someone calls out "Ara" than my actual name....)

    Me.

    I honestly don't think very many of the regulars have - with the notable exception of Rutkowski, who's changed his name at 4 times that I'm aware of.

    I've seriously considered changing my nick to "Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Forum." I'm sure you can guess what film that would be an homage to. ;)

    SP is the only place where I use NonSequitur; everywhere else, it's SpoonMan instead. Haven't changed it, and don't plan on it any time soon.

    (and no, it's not about the song - although Soundgarden rocked - but was in reference to the amount of coffee spoons that collected on my desk at uni while I was belting out my thesis...)

    While I have gone from gems to my old accountant avatar to my current polar bear, my nick has remained constant. I have been using JSBB for most things computer related going back to sometime around 1992.

    Well, *this* nick I have is somewhat a departure from my usual 'empath' but I was going through a major bout of melencholy when I signed up here. (that and I'd assumed a board about FRPGs would already HAVE an 'empath' logged in...who knew? :heh: )

    I've been toying with dropping the "Apathetic" part, but 'AE' seems easier for people than even my usual 'sub-nick' of 'emp'... :)

    Never really changed my nick. I used to spell it with an extra 'h' when I first came on these boards, but thats all the change there has been.

    Same as it ever was here too.

    I always use it because it's easy to remember (my initials) and that's what we had to use back in the old computer mainframe days (1979 or so).
