Strange Nicknames on MyLot

It does kind of amuse me when I see names really incredibly long, and makes me wonder like how the heck did they ever come up with it...For ease though, if I want to add in the person's name into my reply and it's a humdinger of a long one, I just do the ole copy/paste of the name...that way I can also be sure its spelled right

i donn't write everyones name , I have arthritis in my hands knees and ankles , My hands have carpol tunnel , so I only type two figered , It has got a lot quicker though since joining My Lot , I have a habit of calling people pal or doll or sweetheart and I usually do that here too , my friends don't seem to mind that as it is meant as friendly xxx

That or you could just say "hey you" and skip the whole complicated screen name bit. I like ones with meaning, i use this screen name for many things i do online, just differant passwords.

i think the purpose of mylot in limiting those who have the ability to copy/paste being exclusively for those who reached the 500 post mark is meant to screen out those who just want to make easy money... suppose they don't have that limit.. wouldnt that increase the spam posts?

How about mine? lol. Do you need a simple nickname than this? If you are too tired calling my nickie or if you think its too long, you can just say 143 or ILU. As simple as that. But my lovely username can get me into trouble at times. I have had rejections on friend requests because of my username. When i request them and they just see my 143 username, they simply press that deny button or keep me pending thinking that its a kind of flirting. I never gave myself a thought that usernames would matter in friendship. So, if you have troubles writing long usernames, just shorten them, they would understand. Or you can even say like "Hi there" or "hello friend" There are all kinds of usernames here, some of them are ridiculous, some are funny, some are boring, some are short n simple and some make no sense at all. Just don't bother too much about it. It can no way hinder you from doing what you wanted. cheers!

Yea there are some weird names on mylot, maybe some people think mine is weird lol. It is just my first initial and last name, which I use for most of my nicks.

The net offers us all opportunities to rename ourselves. Some people are creative and some people feel that a short handle does not sum them up well. You can use the Speech feature on your computer to help with cutting back on the neccessity for excessive typing. Or you can simply shorten it in your responses to the first few letters or first word of their username.

I'm not crazy about them either. I made mine something I would remember which is the first part of my name and my birth year.

I never really thought about the nicknames on myLot. It doesn't bother me at all if people want to have long complicated names, nor do I care if they want to have short and sweet ones. I use this nickname for just about everything I do online because it is easy for me to remember. Others' nicknames never deter me from responding to their discussions. To each their own, I say.

The length of someone's name doesn't bother me because I don't normally type in there name when I respond to their discussion. However there are some names that give me the creeps that in most cases I don't even read the discussion unless the title grabs my attention. Do you find some names creepy?

I go for the discussion which interests me and i generally do not wrtite their names in my reply so its not hard to reply the discussion for me. but yes I do not feel so fast to read their names and sometimes i like the discussion but not the name as it takes time to read properly so i reda the discussion and reply. i ofetn get back to them seeing their avatar and discussion.

well now,i one think the names aren't so important... i mean we can't see each other's mugs here,right?and we can't be acting like we're face 2 face,our interaction being limited to using words...now this i think it counts,the topics,the opinions,these are the things that make me consider one discussion or another.Not the names or the icons,these i barely look at...
