ApplianceJunk:
When I started my site I used my real name because I thought it would add some credibility to my site.

Everyone still referred to me as AJ on my site, so I decided to go with the username AJ on my forum.

Every were else I go with the username ApplianceJunk and I still get called AJ a lot were I use the name ApplianceJunk.

I find it funny that even when I send out a personal email and have my full name with business info and website in my email signature people will call me AJ in their replies.

I'm thinking of legally changing my name to Appliance Junk. ;)

Well for years I used Raven and then I decided to use  my real name.  Biiiig mistake.  People started getting into my meat space.   Calling family members and so on.   Now I love to talk and I love to post.  I am a post-a-holic  :(     I need help  :'(      But to log in under my facebook so every nut case can get in my business again?  Oh heck no  I tell people my name or even the area I live in but put them around my family again.. Nope

ApplianceJunk:
ravenzmoon unless the information is fake, the whois for your domain shows your name and address.
