R-3 Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 So when I first joined PNWMAS I was the 3rd Ryan so naturally I was called R3. Over the years both Ryans that were #1 and #2 Ryan Jensen and Ryan Mackey have moved on to greater less expensive hobbies, hopefully I now see no reason for the R-3. It sounds like some stupid robot name. I thinking of switching my screenname to Quinn. Just Quinn. Its my last name and seems like it would be easier to remember and associate with me! I just wanted to throw it out there to the masses and make sure you guys could handle it before I ask for a change. Let me know. Might be a pointless thread but hey, who cares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadams7 Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 i'd support the move Ryan! I too have tossed around the idea of changing my username. When I created the account originally I had no idea what I was getting into with reef stuff(or what addiction would ensue), and figured I would be on the site temporarily, so jadams7 just so happened to be my college email address, and was easy to remember. Since then there has been mass confusion as to what the 'j' is and it would just be easier to change it to 'jaseadams'. How does one go about changing? Email a mod?

grassi Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I was curious about that R-3 robot thing lol Quinn sounds great, I use my last name too :-) Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pledosophy Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Mods can't change your name. You need to ask Chief to do that for you. I think he charges a nominal 6 pack of his favorite brew as a fee . . . but I could just be making that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwcoralfarm Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I just assumed it was some direct relation to an astromech droid. Quite possibly the latest release of r2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandinga Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 what? tired of introducing yourself at the monthly meetings as "R-3"? (laugh) I hear you. I should have went with something more simple...I like Jordan's name...Ron Popeil. At first, I thought we had the actual Ronco dude on here. Undrtkr is the true undertaker...from pro wrestling...seriously. I met him and he tried to put me in a choke hold because talked him down on a light fixture. Never do that again.

fishmanmike01 Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Well good luck with that one. When I first joined I requested to have just the "01" dropped from mine and was shot down in short order (threaten). We will have to see how it goes for you Ryan, I still am not nearly as cool as you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael7979 Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 As long as the powers that be will do it. I have no problem with it. Maybe since Mackey and Krux are gone you should just go to R-1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Algae Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 You guys are so cruel. How about: "Albany's Amazing Stinky Hippie Reefer"? Do have to admit that R3-PO'ed is sweet though. And so is the pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
