I know that adjusting to a new name is a serious undertaking for most people, but the common use of an individual's god name does not seem to be wide spread. Admittedly, my sample size is still relatively small, but most of the other gods I have met thus far have introduced themselves with their mortal names first, and then given their god name second. Is this because many have not yet adjusted to the new name, or are we not supposed to use our god names?

I'm making the adjustment myself, and I think it would be easier if I was a little more informed about what my relationship with my god name is meant to be. I, personally, am perfectly comfortable with dropping my old title in favor of Hermes, but if it's something meant for followers only, I can adjust my expectations accordingly.

They for sure never named a planet after a superior copy of him. Does it really matter?
scrap_metal: (looking it up right now)

I have better things to do.

You most likely won't

That's a creative way of conveying emotions via text.

[ what an adult... ]

I'd rather keep my mouth clean.
scrap_metal: (what do you want?)

[ But he's curious. So curious. Why does this guy starts insulting him the moment his identity is known? ]

I'm not forcing you to keep replying
scrap_metal: (this was easy)

I just wonder why gaining knowledge of my identity sent you into flying rage.

You were the first one to imply lack of importance.

[ Forever the NO U argument ]
scrap_metal: (frowny and suspicious)

Are you stupid? That was a general statement, and you just decided to take it personally.

Greek gods stopped being relevant in worship around 1400 years ago, if you really needed to know that.

New agers. Wiccans. Pagans. History nuts.

[ sigh ]

It's exactly the same for all other gods here.
