    The meaning of your usernames?

    I thought that maybe if people wanted to share the meaning behind some of your usernames, it would help install some forum spirit and open up some more introductions to more of each other. I'm interested in hearing more about people on here, and I've seen quite a few names that make me wonder if there is a story behind it.

    For example, my username is my nickname, and I took advantage of it's availability

    Care to share?

    Your mother called you "IT"...no wonder you changed to Toby
    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.

    The first forums I joined were American ones in late 2008.

    I decided as I was a Kiwi & my first name is Greg, that's what I would use.

    I choose to use the same name on all the forums I post on for transparency.

    I have noticed a lot of participates don't......

    There is a wealth of good info on the forums, I have learnt a heap from them & have especially enjoyed the Steel shoots I have been to in both Islands, shame they don't happen as much now

    Not to mention all the good buggers I have met over the years

    I had just been watching some episodes on Youtube when I joined up . . . . . hahahaha
    “For us hunting wasn’t a sport. It was a way to be intimate with nature, that intimacy providing us with wild unprocessed food free from pesticides and hormones and with the bonus of having been produced without the addition of great quantities of fossil fuel. . . . . . . . We lived close to the animals we ate. We knew their habits and that knowledge deepened our thanks to them and the land that made them.”

    Nothing exciting about mine I'm afraid. It's just my first name.

    It seems at times eg 8 months of the year that I live up to my username very well, the sandflies here are the four engine variety and hungry I'm yet to get to Fiordland so I see it as a type of sensitivity training cheers Blair.
