Hell yes. We used to do more for it too... maybe we should start again.
I think the biggest problem is this specific scenario:
Doug Bishop: Hey man, hows it going?
Skier guy that looks like an NSer: Good dude, how about you?
Doug Bishop: Sweet. Today is sick. Hey... you go on NS perchance?
Skier guy that looks like an NSer: Yeah man, that place is sweet.
Doug Bishop: Oh cool..... so whats your username?
At that last comment all of a sudden shit gets:
I think we just need to be proud of our usernames... or all change our usernames to our real names. I feel like a fucking idiot saying "I'm Mr.Bishop". Its funny on the internet, but comes off as condescending in real life.
