rmaynard 16,291 #1 Posted November 25, 2010 For what it's worth, I was reviewing my profile and realized that as of today, I have been on the forum for one year. This is a great bunch of guys and gals and I don't know what I would have been doing if I hadn't joined the group. My wife says I'd still be playing online poker. Wheel Horse tractor collecting is a great hobby, and I have learned a lot from the forum. I hope that any info that I have given, has helped others as well. Next subject is...after one year as "rmaynard", I am thinking of changing my user name. Any feelings on that subject? Happy Thanksgiving to all. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DMK855 15 #2 Posted November 25, 2010 Congrats Bob!! I too am nearing my 1 year anniversary!! This has been a great experience for me and is full of very valuable info!!! Could not ask for a better group of guys and gals!!! Why the name change though!?!?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 16,291 #3 Posted November 25, 2010 Why the name change though!?!?! I just feel like it's time to retire the "real" name and use a moniker that is more representative of the hobby. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brrly1 1,146 #6 Posted November 25, 2010 Why change your name? TT has always been TT. I can't say that I would change mine. I think everybody knows you by your name. Sure there have been name changes but that your call. See Ya, Bye Burly :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 23,139 #7 Posted November 25, 2010 Why change your name? TT has always been TT. I can't say that I would change mine. I think everybody knows you by your name. Sure there have been name changes but that your call. See Ya, Bye Burly Not exactly true John. TT used to have a differant Redsquare name. I'll let TT reveal his old name if he wishes. Mike......

TT-(Moderator) 1,162 #8 Posted November 25, 2010 Yeah..... I was known as "WH1056" - about 6700 posts ago. Once the barrage of Terrys populated the forum and it became tough to keep us straight, I was often referred to as Tricycle Terry (among other less-desirable names ) so it seemed only fitting to change my handle to TT. Happy anniversary, Bob! Just remember...... the shorter the name, the quicker it is to sign in. :wh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brrly1 1,146 #9 Posted November 25, 2010 Ok I apoligize I forgot about the other name. But now that I look down and check out TT's signature I see he is quickly amazing 7000 posts. WOW, I believe he is Top Cat in that category, plus the knowledge he has sure makes him someone to have as a friend. Thanks for all of your posts as well your knowledge that we here at Red Square truly admire. Thanks TT! See Ya, Bye Burly :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duff 206 #10 Posted November 25, 2010 ...... the shorter the name, the quicker it is to sign in. What TT said! I was Deereman72 about 2,200 posts ago...before I had completely switched allegiances and also realized "Duff" is a heck of a lot faster to type in! :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I kind of like Maynard_University. I could then pretend to be something that I am not. But no. I am truly a no BS kind of guy, and if I change my name, I will keep it simple and to the point.

Save Old Iron 1,571 #19 Posted November 26, 2010 My ears are on fire - someone must be talking about me again. Please gentlemen, allow Bob to complete his task here as I am sure this is a life changing event for him. Let us not ruin Bob's special day. I would however like to encourage the idea of Maynard_University. I even have a few ideas for your University I would like to pass on. A lot of my - shall we say - special students at SOI U may not make the semester cut. They should not be denied education more appropriately tailored to their current level of technical "expertise". Friendly competition breeds higher performance. I think we should all join in and encourage Bob to take the time to demonstrate his ability, break away from the herd and create something special, something not seen every day. Even if that means imitating others. After all, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. Go Bob, Go. We are all routing for you buckaroo. Oh, before I go, Happy One Year RS Anniversary my friend. One year is PAPER, right. Here ya go ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 16,291 #22 Posted November 26, 2010 Congrats Bob... Time goes by fast - I'll be on here for 3 years on 11/28. You add a lot of valuable input on this forum and we appreciate it! You are right, time does go by fast. I know that I have had some posts on here that one would consider to have gone off on tangents, but for the most part, I try to offer the knowledge that I have learned over my years, and to do it without the fanfare and embellishments that some others on here feel is necessary. However, I have to say that I think I have learned a lot more here than I have imparted to others. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
