Identity Misappropriation--Ginger, Help!

<< < (3/3)

Che Gookin:
You know the wierd thing here is I've read almost all of John Ringo's books at least twice and didn't think to connect Johnny Ringo the programme shill with John Ringo the Author.

Interesting connection being made here and one I'd never have thought about making had the OP brought it up in the first place.

I second TSW's sentiment... Believe it or not, most people who call themselves "John" do not call themselves "Johnny," at least publicly.  I am sure that there is someone out there reading this who will serve up proof of the exception, but -- at least in my part of the world -- this is a generally true rule of thumb.

Johnny Ringo usually posts mostly in HLA; recently I did see his name as the the most recent poster on some other forum on the Index... perhaps that is when you became aware of his existence?  He has been posting here on an infrequent basis for some time now.

I wouldn't worry too much about potential confusion.  If people truly do confuse the two, I am sure they will ask, and you can set them straight...

Alternatively, you could take on a different user name, all the while having your real name remain commonly known.  This way you could cover all your bases.

Bloody well right.  ::drummer::
