It's silly but it can and does cost people jobs. There are a lot of losers who like getting their nose in other peoples personal shit.

this is why you choose a nick like mine =)

I'll change it if you like Duffy, it should change any past occurrences of your name.

I can vouch for employers doing this. In fact, they had my name typed up in Google on a computer next to the interview area while I was sat down for the interview! With that said, I think all but the most serious of companies isn't going to take what they find too seriously — everyone has a social life and acts in a way they'd never act in a professional setting, after all.

Getting rid of particularly incriminating things is probably for the best, but as long as you don't act like a serious moron on the web I doubt you'll face any real repurcussions.

Heh, my old e-thug antics are here if you search back far enough. Mapcore keeping stuff from so far back is damning!

[Thrik]

Okay, there we go. :wink:

Ahaha this thread reminds me of a phone call I received from a worrying mum. She had tried to search for me on google and found the awesome videos of me not beeing able to put a car into gear and sliding downhill on the road on the ice (damn you google and youtube!!).

But yeah, any game employer that is looking for a 100% serious character to join their ranks are looking for the wrong guy.

Man I just hit the bong like 30 minutes ago and saw my name in this thread. Everyone is gonna think it's a play wall-e.....fuck.

If a company is willing to perform in-depth research such as checking out forum posts then I also assume them to be qualified enough to know not to trust everything on the internets. If not, then I couldn't care to work for them anyway.

Nice play on Wall-e, Duff-e!

Haha it wasn't just me who saw the hilarity of talking about bongs in a thread about not looking unprofessional to employers in a forum thread, then.
