Same as on here, wouldn't seem right to me any other way. I have o7'd with a couple of people from here on the PS, not for a while tho possibly due to grinding loads recently.

Nickname in the forum and in the game
- Thread starter VR SenseiMatty
- Start date
Nah, this is not my ingame nick, it's just a sarcasm around reasons players choose their nicks.
As for spaces in names (filenames, whatever names which pass through computers), it is historically better to have "_" instead of " " due to many reasons, mainly because it produces less problems.

Well, I'm Old\ Duck in the terminal, though "Old Duck" also works
You met me recently Old Duck, you were in a T-7, I was in a mission running Python.
There is very little overlap between people I know on the forum & in-game, but there is a bit of cross-over, mostly from random chance as it was when we met.
yes
That explains your avatar.
I don't even remember this - are you "you" in game? Though sometimes I look at my history and see people in the list that I don't recall "meeting" (I suspect they come and go from the station when I'm in outfitting, for example).
I can't remember my in-game name...
It'll come back to me eventually, I suppose...
(see text line 2 in sig...)

I o7'd you (as I do with any player I meet) as we both approached a station orbiting a gas giant - I don't recall the system, it was somewhere near GD 140 I think.
You then immediately took evasive action having presumably not spotted me (ctrl-B is your friend) until I hailed you, I then responded "I am not a threat to you" and you returned to your previous heading. I said "I am Riverside", sent you a friend request (which you accepted) & you eventually sent me an o7 in return.
It was not a deep & meaningful meeting, it was rare though
Perhaps there are others you have met & simply don't remember?
Out of the hundreds/thousands of Cmdrs I've encountered, I've recognised maybe three forum names. Sure, some people will have different forum/game IDs, but it does drive home how numerically insignificant the vocal forumites are in the grander scheme of things.
@Speedcuffs... Ray Gateway is it?
There comes a time when remembering yesterday is . . . um . . .
I see what happened now. A senile moment perhaps, but not one of forgetfulness. I don't think I saw your "I am Riverside" message, but I see a MALCRIVERSIDE in my friends list, and I've seen you often on my Comms menu. Here's the senile part - my brain did not separate the "riverside" from MALCRIVERSIDE. Your name was hiding there in plain sight all this time!I said "I am Riverside", sent you a friend request (which you accepted) & you eventually sent me an o7 in return.

I also recently learned I'm friends with someone else on the forum, but their CMDR name is radically different than their forum nickname. They even got a screenshot of me in my Dolphin! That's how I put two and two together, as I remember this CMDR "eyeballing" me, so when I saw the shot, I knew exactly who (in game) took it.
