    And a followup question: What would you want it to be?

    Just curious to see who would keep what they have....

    .....or now you look at it and wonder, "WTH was I thinking?"

    I wouldn't change mine. It's a permutation of my nickname in real life, and I like it!

    yes, I never had been involved in message boards so I didn't know the idea was to put some kind of nick name or something related to the site. if i had to do it again, I would choose "otisthorpe" if it isn't taken.

    I'd change mine to JamesatGSU. My name now is my friend's nickname and my name put together. I should have thought that one through better.

    Uh..

    While mine is stupid, I wouldn't know what else to use. I've had it for so long now that it's one of those things that just is.

    If I could have Amigo, I would. It's taken, I tried when I signed up, but I don't think the user with that name ever posted here.

    Mine came from a rap song which I misunderstood the lyrics to. The lyrics were, Son of Psalm Giver. I would change it if I could.

    I know Clutch doesn't have the time for this....

    But it would be cool to have those monikers that aren't being used or have been inactive for 30-60 days to be thrown back into the database so it would be available again.

    Not unless Chuck was traded - of course, if he was I might then just say I was an Elvin Hayes fan instead of a Chuck Hayes fan. ;)

    Or maybe I could just say I was both :D

    44 is such a good number on a Houston uniform

    I changed mine already but did it the hard way by reregistering with a new nickname.

    I'd just correct it. It should read C Son.

    I've always wondered about yours. Are you an actual Peter Gabriel fan or is this some kind of Office Space Michael Bolton situation?

    I'm the same way. This was the first message board I'd ever signed up for, so I got confused and put my email address in the nickname part. It wouldn't accept it, so I took away the dot whatever part and ended up with this one.

    I was trying to register as Vernon Dozier, which is my favorite Phil Hendrie character.

    I think I was 14 years old when I started using the internet and eventually found this site.

    As much as my nickname is odd, I doubt I would change it now, it is a part of clutchfans history.

    I might. I have another handle I use -- Sexy McAwesome -- and I might change to that one.
