Well... The BBS that I ran had a cucumber plantation theme, mainly just to distinguish it from other local BBS systems and partly as a joke. So it was just a cosmetic thing, there weren't any discussions about that sort of thing. Everything was renamed to fit the plantation theme, boards were called green houses I think, and posts were called plants. So instead of calling my position Sysadmin or something I called it "Trädgårdsmästare" (which is Swedish for Gardener). After that it kinda just stuck, I felt I needed a new online nick since the one I used before wasn't really me, and Gardener felt more appropriate and I had used it sometimes at other BBS systems.
