A 'nic' is simply your Hotcopper name, like yours is Zenzen.
The first poster ever on here along with yours truly was a guy who's nic was Forty.
Above his name he had a picture of a rather attractive women and I unknowingly made a remark about how hot she was.
He re posted with the fact that it was actually his wife. Whoops.
Oh and for the record.....no, I am not Pennypincher.
