Getting used to new things is hard it seems.... Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

As much of you know, I changed my nick from Spec to Skywise.....But, everyone still calls me Spec, like if you guys didn't like Skywise... This is not an attention whore thread, I dont make these threads. But did you guys like better Spec? Should I change back to Spec? I dont like Spec anymore.....well, I never did, just wrote spectator in cuz I only thought I was going to spectate threads and not actually write something in....but turns out I do. And Spectator shortened is Spec which sounds a bit...narly surfer dude or something, whic is really not me.

So, should I change back?

While everyone agrees that name changes suck, it's possible to get rid of the old one for good, it just requires a lot of time. Patience.

While name changes suck, they suck less than names that suck to start with. Unless you change to another name which sucks. And all of those names suck. So change to something different. Maybe "Gnarly Surfer Dude", or "that guy who talks about cars quite frequently".
