Re: Stop calling me builderDD and stuff!

I always capitalize the first letter of a username. It's a noun so I just do, it's my typing style. I try to remember if people have specific requests, but I don't see it as high-priority. Whatever you prefer, as long as you don't overreact.

That seems pretty unfriendly...why would you do that?

Its not that I'm trying to be unfriendly, its that i'm trying to problem a point.
When someone starts calling you a nickname, it'll either fade away or stick.
(I'll stop calling you that after a while *whenthisthreadisclosed*)
And most of the time, people do it to attract your attention.
I called you builderDD because i knew it would grab your attention, so i could make my point clear.
-bbbeb

Last Note: I have no intentions of being annoying. I'm just sick of all these "oh my gosh someone called me a nickname lets go make a thread to tell them that they shouldn't" threads.

Different things are important to different people.  If it's no big deal to you, why not humor the request?  Or at least not go out of your way to be confrontational about it?  If it bothers you excessively, just don't post to the topic or address the person by any name.  There is room in here for everybody  smile

Re: Stop calling me builderDD and stuff!

and my name is Joshua, Josh- uh-wuh

but does that stop people from calling me Josh? NO. Do I prefer that name? No. Do I complain? No.

I mean if I'm asked what i prefer i will say my named the "right" way but i don't go on attention-seeking rants.

Re: Stop calling me builderDD and stuff!

I don't see why it matters. I admit my user name doesn't have too many possible nicknames other than 'Hara', but it doesn't matter. I think you're overreacting, but I guess I can refrain from using the name if it bothers you.  tongue

Re: Stop calling me builderDD and stuff!

I see some odd things like

"Call me by my real name"

I see some childish things like

"You sound like a window blind!"


I honestly think we could all just directly speak to Thebuilderdd rather then come up with these... ideas.

Re: Stop calling me builderDD and stuff!

How's anyone supposed to know what names you hate and what you're OK with? Honestly, it's just a nickname.


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

I've been hanging over this topic a long time, but seriously, it's a name. Good grief.


Retired from Scratch, but just the language itself. Not the forums.
