Hah! How little you know me! I'm barely credible as a human being, let alone anything else. Just ask the wife. :laugh:

That's what wives are there for i suppose, keep us men grounded in reality. Man - "honey, look at this, I have been consistently ranked as a Top Expert on Code Project" Wife - "eermmm, no surprise you have been wasting your time on bloody CP when you should be fixing that broken sink that's been broken for around a week now"...*Man hangs his head in disappointment* ;)

Oh sh*t! Now you have told us, you will have to kill us all. Can you start with JSOP? At least he can shoot back...

not sure of that but "Aman" definitely is sandwiched between "F***ing A" and "A", lets just hope these 2 are girls. ;)

Using a colloquialism, as some people pronounce mayonnaise like Man Ay's (Ay's, like raise). As for the other part, I think you got that. :-D
It was broke, so I fixed it.

No no no, we are more advanced now. So, OriginalGriff, would you like the red pill, or the blue pill?
Red pill, every time. I like seeing how deep holes are...

Oh, we changed that too, the red pill now means you are a democrat, and the blue pill will turn you into a republican... So both will make you able to see how deep the hole is, just from two different perspectives, sort of as it is in the world today :laugh:

So I finally decided to use my real name today on Code Project after having used a handle for more than 5 years "gladiatron"! to be honest, when i first joined CodeProject I really didn't intend to use it quite that much except for one-off code-problems and I actually didn't for around 4 something years. Only since last year, I have been a more active member of CP helping with peoples' problems, posting questions, commenting in The Lounge etc...and with my first article debut on CP today, I thought it makes perfect sense to unmask the name and come out with my real name. I happen to think that using your real name (as many of the top guys here do) gives more credibility to your views and ideas. People often tend to look at handles as something of a non-serious time-killing joker. And I am nothing like that :). I feel, real names also engender an unspoken trust that the person participating in the community is not a sham and is serious. So there you go, I am Aman (trust me that is my name and yes I am a man as well, so my name perfectly re-affirms my gender ;) ) and pleased to meet you all again :) and I really hope to contribute even more in the coming days, weeks, months and years. Do share your experiences and views in this regard, I would be glad to hear them.

I not really using my real name, there are to many jealous husbands out there looking for me so I use the name of my worst enemy. He calls me every so often to tell me what an asshole I am and his wife and I laugh.

I doubt my real name is taken, my last name is rather rare. My first name is common though, and would probably get me mixed up with some other prominent members of the community. But I only use my real name or a username derived from it on official-ish things. I'm not really working hard to hide it though, you could find it if you wanted to. ;P

My real name is Harry Potter - but who would believe me? So I use Forogar Longstride in all but the most official documents (i.e. those that would get me arrested if I didn't use my real name).

I happen to use as close to my real name as I could get: all the variations I could find on Paul Griffin were taken by the time I signed up. So, I ended up with a handle. I don't think use of a real name gives any credibility - I think it is the quality of your posts that does that. I can think of people who use their real name who shouldn't be allowed near a computer, much less listened too...

As you have no credibility, I expected this of you.
