Mapman57 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Hi to all Not 100% sure if this is the best [place for this post. I use my same user id across the various Rep forums on the net. I am interested to know if you use THE SAME user ID (Name) on the various genuine watch forums that are out there such as VRF and others. I am in the search for a genuine vintage Rolex watch and need to be a registered member in some of these forums. Just wondered what the protocol is - as I know many here, are also members across those Boards as well - especially our leading Rolex experts. All help and guidance appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThinkBachs Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Nooooooooooo! I use the same on all the rep forums, and a different on on all the gen forums. You never know when some [censored] gen owner is going to get ticked off because you know more than he does and he researches your user name to discover your "dark side." It keeps things nice and simple keeping things separated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woof* Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 I am something else on VRF, but same or similar on other gen forums as I registered on some of them before reps came into my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 No. That is just asking for trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mapman57 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Thanks Guys - I expected that common sense, pragmatic response! After I posted this, I thought 'what a dumb question!' Its just that I have see some members using the same name all over the place........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever123 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 I don't use the same nick - and I also don't use the same pics... don't want to attract attention, do you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mapman57 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Good point also on the pics - sig and avatar! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbanshogun Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 I don't really see the problem. It's not like you're going to be selling/posting/talking about reps on the gen forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usmctowgnr Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 I was a member on the gen sites long before here. I have used same id for quite a while with no problem. That being said like mentioned before I keep the two completely seperate. Kinda like the wife and the gf lol. Just kidding about that last part.

lhooq Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 I keep the two separated. It's simpler that way. Cheers - JJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankenstein Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Keep them separate.... Even if you are 100% kosher about not mixing the Gen and the Rep the implication is DEADLY to your ability to ever sell a watch again.... I'm here because I want a nice rep SUB....I sell Rolex all day long, It's my business. Having the same handle here as on TZ or WN or VRF would most likely get me canned real fast and lose me a lot of business. With that said....Anyone got a real nice rep sub?
