username suggestions
hi all! first of all, i want to say that im not leaving OB, nor do i plan on using it less than before but i've decided to join another orchid forum as well. you guys have been so awesome, that it makes me want to talk to even more orchid friends! im not leaving or anything, so dont get worried!
so, here is why i come to you for help (no pun intended) does anyone have any ideas for a username? i dont really want to have "help" as a username. please [I]help[/I me!
ps. its most likely gonna be rv-orchidworks

i think you should keep "help" if you even need help to choose a username, then "help" is really appropriate!
and you would be recognized across multiple forums.
anyway I was not crazy about rv-orchidworks. I find very little cultural / experience information / sharing. Mostly praising each others' blooms. It always scores high on google when you search some species but you get very little informations from their posts.
Also you can't mention any vendors and they are a bit strict for that.
I like orchidsource a lot better and orchidsinteractive also

i'll check those two out. thanks for the input. the reason i didnt want to use "help" is because i didnt want to join and seem like a complete and utter newbie. on other forums that arent related to orchids, my username is orchidman, but thats sure to be taken. and wouldnt be recognizeable for people who use both forums. thats why i asked for y'alls input. to help me with a username, but also so that when i do join whatever forum it may be, maybe some OB-ers will have seen/contributed to this thread, and will recognize me as that person.

help can be needed or provided. orchidman sounds pretentious. anyway most of people on a forum are "orchidman" or "orchidwoman". you could choose CantComeUpWithaUsername as a username

I usually go with names of mythical beings or fantasy characters. Usually the evil doers have the best names. But thats what I do.

I love Abbeys suggestion!
We would all recognise you & you don't use the username "help" which is what you're asking right?
