Just change it to something positive mate and forget about it.

This is a colorful place... I think someone probably will turn up with that name eventually! It would be like the Sexyboxer controversy all over again.

I PM'd back saying i'd look after the avatar and i'd think of something more positive for my nickname... Maybe I will go with Sunshine!! and have an avatar with candy and lollipops and rainbows..

I'm just think it's going to be a little bit tacky calling myself "MrSuccess" or something,,, even though it would probably do good logging in and MrSuccess every day...
I personally wouldn't have connected someone's avatar name, with the level of positivity & motivation on a forum, and some ie MOST Mods are total power hungry, control freak, turd munchers,,,, but I get where they are coming from... and certainly not going to kick up a fuss.

Sadly, from an observers perspective, most of my life probably IS best described as a Dizaster at the moment. So it's perfectly fitting, but perhaps not the image I need for myself...

RIGHT, SO be is THEN!

My job now is to think of a new name..!
