Shot Posted January 18, 2009 #1 Posted January 18, 2009 I'm a new member, part of the over the hill group........I notice that everyone has a call name other than their given name.....I don't want to stand out in the crowd as Joe Taylor; my nickname is Shot, that sounds like a good biker name. How do I go about getting this changed to Shot? Or am I just paranoid?
dynodon Posted January 18, 2009 #2 Posted January 18, 2009 Hey Joe (or Shot), Nicknames aren't necessary, just fun sometimes. One bit of advice, if you are going to the inauguration or any function around an airplane or someone famous, don't just shout out your nickname.....could be unhealthy. In my riding group, I resisit being called the nickname, and I have a hard time remembering who is who, hard enough to learn real names!
Condor Posted January 18, 2009 #3 Posted January 18, 2009 Send a note to Freebird. He'll change it to anything you want.
SilvrT Posted January 18, 2009 #5 Posted January 18, 2009 your nickname shows up as "Shot" so why do you want to change it to "Shot"? If it's already "Shot" I can't understand why anyone, with a nickname of that would want to change it to "Shot"..???
barend Posted January 18, 2009 #6 Posted January 18, 2009 Hey Joe, I use my name though i discovered that it could be easily misconstrued. I though it was pretty funny, but it is not my favorite seating position at the club!! But who cares, i've got so many nicknames (Chief, Dundee, BR, jerk (ex)), I have a hard time remembering them all. Wouldn't worry about it, life's too short.

Shot Posted January 19, 2009 Author #10 Posted January 19, 2009 Freebird changed the name from Joe Taylor to Shot, my nickname. This was just done today so be easy on me. My heart ain't bad but don't make it beat faster. Thanks guys for the response. At least you read my question.
krome rose Posted January 19, 2009 #11 Posted January 19, 2009 Welcome aboard the crazy train, Shot. Good to have another North Carolinian in the mix. Brandy

SilvrT Posted January 19, 2009 #13 Posted January 19, 2009 When Don changes it everything gets changed...even the old posts... I wuz just takin a "shot" at Shot ... I knew about the change .... I figgured it was an ideal opportunity to get a "cheap shot" in ... and I just know that one of you guyz is gonna give me a "shot" right back! welcome aboard Shot... hope yer not into guns LOL
Marcarl Posted January 19, 2009 #15 Posted January 19, 2009 Knuckelhead is a good biker name. Hey Don???? can you change Gary's 99silver to Knucklehead,,,,,,I know he wood like it. And I do think that Shot is better than Shoot, it's shorter, easier to spell and we can be more sure of what is going to take place in the very near future. You can just never to too careful with all those gun toting Americans lol.
