My name is James. When on b.net ((starcraft)) people didn't want to waste
time by writing it out so they wrote J. My freind started using it and
eventually I came to be called Jay (When I said J they assumed it to be
short for Jay).  One day, on AHSC there was a guy, also by the name of Jay,
trying to be an imposter of me. I found out very soon becuase he posted
newbie stuff and made stupid comments towards Ng elders. I asked him to
please change his name a his trying to be an imposter wasn't very
comfortable for me. He cursed me out. So instead of taking offense I just
changed my name to The Real Jay. Once I announced the name change he never
posted again. Weird. (Absolutely true story. You can probably look up some
of the posts on deja.com, but our argument was through email)
