I tend to regard anybody who uses Master/Sir/Lord in their nic as too full of them selves to be taken seriously, and since I mostly hang in P&R I whenever I see a nick with a "cuck" in it I assume another batshit right-winger[:D]
Awww, you still love me though, right? :)
In all seriousness though, the "Sir" in my nick here is for ease of use for others. Really, this is the internet, and unfortunately, I found long ago that one has to make things terribly terribly simple on this here series of tubes. And even then, you'll always find the ones that still just don't get it.
Take myself seriously though? Pfft. That's about the last thing anyone would ever say about me. I'm not only ridiculous, I'm downright hypothetical. [;)]
Others names though, it depends. Things that are blatant, such as "DicSkr4U" or whatever, yeah... that's a no go. I'll probably read their cmail, but they've already started out on the wrong foot. Something like "JoeySissy" though, well, that might interest me a bit more, as with my name, a bit of a quantifier right off the bat that tells me what position they're in. "BKSir", right off the bat, one should imagine that I'm probably a D-type, whereas "JoeySissy", I should think logically that they're an S-type. Just gives me a little bit of an idea what to expect, without being too blatant and crude. Otherwise, it really doesn't give me a lot of insight into their mind and motivators aside from what side of the paddle they like to be on. "DicSkr4U" though, that tends to say a lot, in my mind, as to why they're here, what they want, and what is important in their life. So, while off-putting in a way, I suppose it is a good thing, as I know that I probably won't waste much of my time on them.
