Dyan Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 See topic description <_< I'm also curious to know exactly how many accounts are alts and how many are "real" users... As to my own username - it was actually, er, a typo. I don't recall what it was supposed to be, but it wasn't intended to be a play off on "dying" which it sounds - if you put it in just the right accent. (nor was it supposed to look like a female name ) HK47: Commentary: It is not possible to destroy the master. It is suggested that you run while my blasters warm, meatbags. Bastila to Revan: You are easily the vainest, most arrogant man I have ever met! Canderous to Bastila: Insults? Maybe if your master had trained your lightsaber to be as quick as your tongue you could have escaped those Vulkars, you spoiled little Jedi princess!
thepixiesrock Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 You started this topic just to talk about yourself, didn't you? Lou Gutman, P.I.- It's like I'm not even trying anymore!http://theatomicdanger.iforumer.com/index....theatomicdangerOne billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.
Jorian Drake Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 I always used Jorian as my name...well, since '93, before that my name was Dante ....And I use Marduk, the 'King of Gods' as my Avatar from Septerra Core Nice, no? :D
Dyan Posted February 13, 2006 Author Posted February 13, 2006 You started this topic just to talk about yourself, didn't you? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No - but my other topic I made a few days back, well I realised I didn't put my own views on it until two pages later. I figured this time I'd put some info down first. If I wanted to talk about myself, I'd start an autobiography thread and rant about how much I'm right and no one else is. :cool: Or some such. So how did you get your name, Mister Pixies. (at least I assume you're a guy). :ph34r: HK47: Commentary: It is not possible to destroy the master. It is suggested that you run while my blasters warm, meatbags. Bastila to Revan: You are easily the vainest, most arrogant man I have ever met! Canderous to Bastila: Insults?

Pope Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 (edited) I've no idea whatsoever. "The Pope" was the first thing that came to mind all those years ago when I first registered on some forum (I believe it was an M:TG board, where's the days...) So how did you get your name, Mister Pixies. (at least I assume you're a guy). :ph34r: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Isn't it obvious? He's a Pixies fan! Edited February 13, 2006 by Pope
roshan Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 My name on the forums is my name in real life. Why do most people adopt a different name(or sometimes even a different personality or identity) when they are online? Are they not content with being themselves?
SteveThaiBinh Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 Usually your real name has already been taken as a username, unless you combine it with something weird that no-one's ever heard of. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)
Dyan Posted February 13, 2006 Author Posted February 13, 2006 Isn't it obvious? He's a Pixies fan! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Excuse my ignorance, but being a Brit... Pixies? *blank stare* My name on the forums is my name in real life. Why do most people adopt a different name(or sometimes even a different personality or identity) when they are online? Are they not content with being themselves? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have no answer for you aside from the fact I don't want everyone knowing who I am.

Moose Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 My name on the forums is my name in real life. Why do most people adopt a different name(or sometimes even a different personality or identity) when they are online? Are they not content with being themselves? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There are psychos that go around, track down and kill everybody of a single name. Didn't you watch that documentary where some guy went around and killed every single woman called Sarah Conner? There are none that are right, only strong of opinion. There are none that are wrong, only ignorant of facts

Darth Somethingorother Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 (edited) I got to the end of 'Darth' and then lost interest. That was a long time ago now. I just sort of kept on using it. 'Ooo Shiney!' and varients thereof I also use. The Pixies are a band- sort of like the Dropkick Murpheys, only different. They toured together last year, and I think both played at Leeds and Reading last year too (certainly the Dropkick Murphey's did).

Hurlshort Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 I chose my name like 15 years ago. I was looking for a good handle for Wing Commander. I had chosen Winger, but one day a friend pointed out that's a crappy Canadian hair band. I wanted a term that had something to do with hockey, but Slapshot and Snapshot sounded generic. For some reason I chose Hurl. The name just stuck. It's nice that I've never seen another Hurlshot anywhere, although I do get heckled a bit for the Wayne's World puke reference. I actually picked the name before I knew Hurl was primarily used to describe puking. I go by Taran for most fantasy games because I'm a huge fan of Lloyd Alexander and The Black Cauldron.
