I used this name when I first joined AnswerBank and when the site had a better class of member than it seems to have today.
In those early days I thought that being rather senior to the majority I would be light heartedly and affectionately treated as just another 'old git' airing his views, just as the TV show Grumpy Old Men.
But It seems now, that some just take the opportunity to shorten it down to old-git and to use it aggressively, in it's derogative term of use, take some of these replies to your question.
When I receive some answers it makes me wonder if some talk to their Fathers, Grandfathers or even their great grandfathers in such a way?

AOG - my late father was a grumpy old git and my first cat (adopted as a teenager) was a grumpy old git. I loved both of them dearly. It may be a term of respect or affection.
I don't think that you are unpleasant of contemptible at all - you just like to enliven the discussion in the NEWS section.
AN O THE OLD GIT - where's your R?
