So, change is coming. Can't fight it, don't want to.

Question is, should I stay "The Man" and go with the change or change my name and completely embrace it?

I don't post a lot, but after being "The Man" for over a year it's hard to let go.

Thanks ✊

This.
But then again, OTB & I have both done the change. And unless people already know you as "The Man", a name can really change how people see you & treat you.

ie: for some reason I like Kilgore Trout & was more willing to get to know him as KT than I was when he was Add FISH or punkyourwallet. So yes...what's in a name? (& I probably come off as more of a jerk as BMJ than as BellaItaliana 😏)

I see myself as a positive person. One who embraces change. Having said that, I see no need or cause for change here. "The Man" is a classic TW moniker.

Who doesn't love the idea of you attacking someone and having them be informed, "The Man just attacked you." Good stuff!

More importantly, you are one of the few universally accepted, large mob, big turfing stand alone players in the game. Solid rep; positive contributor. That's The Man I know. Why mess with success?

Executive summary: if it ain't broke …

Agree with all of this

Let's put it this way, you change your name you still "The Man"

Don't change your name. I'd never change mine ;)

As soon as you change it, someone will cop The Man and try to own your rep. You've earned it, keep it.

Change your name to 'Agent Smith'

But don't think for 1 second your escape to a non extradition country or the plastic surgery will help you!! Justice prevails and the people want answers!

Damn, I'm not sure what to say to the latest posts. 😹

Guess I'll stay "The Man" for now, we'll see how the name survives the upcoming changes...
BigBK Jun 16, 2011

I vote stay the man. Someone will take it...and I've become strangely comfortable with the man in my later years...don't let that get mixed up man...

There's always 'Grassy (or turfy) Knoll' or 'Goat Starer'

Your name seems to be like a cornerstone in TW. It also matches your character. If you change it, IMO, it wouldn't have the same persona. For instance, "The Man" said I should change from RPGs to miniguns, as opposed to "Otis Spunkmeyer" said I should blah blah blah. Definitely keep your name dude.

If TheSmokinGun continues to talk in third person, Emperor K will be showing TheSmokinGun just how far a smokin gun can be shoved down his throat.
