What's in a name? (Useless forum post)

[Thomas_Not_very_wise]

Okay, we've lots of Usernames on IRC, and on the forums.

What inspired you to use them?

I am Thomas_not_very_wise because I often act before thinking and speak when I ought to stfu.

[VanillaPudding]

I picked Derf because it spells my name backwards.

[derfo]

I PICKED VANILLAPUDDING BECAUSE IT'S WHAT I LICK OUT OF MY PEEHOLE

[Ebok]

Ebok is really my name.

[TheMacPanther]

TheMacPanther was chosen to represent our struggle.

Damn Microsoft always keepin' the Mac man down.

(For anyone who doesn't get that one, it is a allusion to the Black Panthers)

[Nickless]

I couldn't think of a cool nickname.

[UnholyWon]

UnholyWon was given to me by SevereMeltdown.

He made me the account and told me to start playing. Been playing ever since.

[Sternhund]

Original username was Stardog. Made it when I was making a Starcraft account. You know, STARcraft, and I like DOGS. Then someone named it in Deutsch and it caught on well with me.

[MisterBriggs]

HALFBROOD is obv a starcraft name, also.

[Caster13]

When I played AD&D with my cousins, my first character was Terry the Spellcaster.
 
When I started doing stuff on the internet, I started using Spellcaster. Then just shortened it.

[Ranek]

Ranek was my first char on the server... Which I don't remember where I got from, I think from a video game character. It was not so long ago.

[DangerousDan]

i was shit at counter strike

[Velve]

I was obsessed with the movie 'Blade' when I was about 12, and started getting into drow at the same time. Velve is blade in the drow language, so it stuck. Too lazy to think up a better name.

[TheImpossibleDream]

This was the name of my priests Mace before I switched it up to Valnyr in WoW.

Naga comes from back when I only played as random in rated games on warcraft 3 in the old times when you got Naga icons next to your name. It was original "TheNaga" because you'd get a different naga depending on how many games you won. I just never shortened it.

[Listen in Silence]

I was listening silently to an In Flames song when I was thinking to change my account, since I'd grown tired of 'Kinsbane'.

It also suits my IRL personality flawlessly. Sadly, I'm much more talkative in text.
