What do you lot put as your usernames on Skype?

Real name or forum name?

Agreed, he never said a thing to me on here before, but when backed up by the brawn of Chris, the moderating powers of Jordi, and the photoshopping skills of the Maestro, there is no stopping him.

Those two are synonymous for me, so it was a no-brainer.

I'll just put Forest then, doubt i'll use Skype with real mates

Acts normal? Does he post loads of smilies? Sexual innuendos?

He just acts very different to how he does on here

Put your real name on, but make your skype name to do with Forest to avoid confusion.

Ok. My Skype name is SteveCotterill

Edit, no it's not that is taken

Someone hunting down your facebook/school email, etc, and interfering with your real life. That puts me off somewhat.

Glen Damon, hello

I added you on there, Leo.

Fair point, but in what way could they interfere with your real life?

I like to keep my real life & my "internet life" (so to speak) separate. I don't want people (bar maybe a select few) from here knowing about what I am doing in real life/where I am studying, and I don't want people I know reading through all of my posts on here. If one of my bitter enemies from here found out my facebook (which, fortunately, I deleted last month, the useless sack of crap), then it would be...awkward.

I am quite well, thank you for your politeness

How are you?

Politeness is the standard for me.

I am doing well. Just a week left of school, although for the past month, school has consisted of me sitting around and reading books for pleasure. What a chore.

Have you read any good books you would recommend lately?

Gatsby wrote:Have you read any good books you would recommend lately?

Tinker, Tailor was a good book. As were Huckleberry Finn/Tom Sawyer, if you enjoy entertaining satires.

Blade highly recommended "Brave New World" to me, so I am about to start reading that, once it arrives.

Yeah, Brave New World is a good book

I have to read Brave New World over the summer.

I got my first computer in the mid '90s, and as a teenager, I acquired every kind of virus downloading porn can give you.

Fair comments. I see your points, but whilst I'm fussed, I'd never go to extreme lengths nor would I ever reveal my location. Just giving out my name is enough.

Sean, was the English exam easy?

The beauty about living in America is that revealing even the county/school I attend, it is about as meaningful and descriptive as someone saying that they live in London.

I did it in January, I got full marks, but It was tricky enough.
