What does everybody's USER ID's on AT Forums mean and how did you pick it?

[ltk007]

I chose this one about 4 years ago when I first got online, and never thought of using anything else until recently. Now I kinda wish I could choose a new nickname, this one is getting stale.

 

[DarkRipper]

Well, I started out as totenkopf68, which is my grandfathers old tank division, until too many people took issue with it. I then changed to Ripper68, because I play paintball, and I had just purchased an angel that had been named the "Ripper" by its former owner. I then sold that and bought the next level marker up, a "Dark Angel," hence DarkRipper. 68 is an old sports number from high school, it is also coincidentally the caliber of paintballs.

Here is my paintball site, check it out if you are into that.

[azazyel]

I know that no one really cares but I don't want people looking the name up on the internet. They would get some goth site. Azazyel was a fallen angel from the book of enoch. He and is cohorts introduced magic to the world.

[pac1085]

I.C.S. Vortex was the lead vocals and bass for the Norwgian Black Metal band Borknagar for an album or two...the name sounded cool, so I used it...its starting to get boring though.

 

[Ariel]

OK mine is a little silly, so please don't laugh.

Shortly before I joined this forum, my husband and I were snorkeling at the island of Lanai with a pod of about 15 Dolphins. It was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. Anyway, when we fininshed I told him (jokingly of course) that I felt like Ariel from The Little Mermaid. So now that is one of his nicknames for me and I decided to use it here.

 

[Yeeny]

I picked mine out of a hat. It was either this, or my childhood nickname my mom gave me, The Bionic Bitch. I figured this was better.

I am SexE, and my nick name is "Pid" from the last name "Pidwinski" Just ask GF.

Oh yeah, he is sexy. Specially when he gets all dolled up in a leotard. Yummy...

 

[Regine]

I like the band Tool, and I'm a girl.

 

[BCYL]

It's my initials... I know, I am a boring guy

 

[Shalmanese]

My name is the name of the first therocapX(theoretical capacity Exceeds [human brain]) computer in the novel "Stand up on Zanzibar" by John Brunner.

Really loved that book and all the rest of his books are kickass as well

too bad there out of print

 

[Isla]

Well, I feel like an island most of the time. Isolated and alienated in the suburban wasteland, so to speak. Oh, and I'm a latina, 3rd generation to be born here in Tampa/Ybor City. Plus, no man is an island... and I'm no man.

I've been called an 'island girl' in the past, I guess for my attitudes about life and my personal style. I would be happy as a clam living on Fiji... I don't care a fig about society in terms of who's who and la-di-da. Everyone is naked underneath the facade, including me. I'm, uh, a little bit eccentric, I think. At least when my friends tell me so, they say it affectionately...

It just seemed like a natural name for me. /me shrugs.

 

[kduncan5]

k is my first initial, duncan is my last name, and who knows about 5? I certainly don't.....

Not very imaginative, I know. But I didn't realize what kind of diversity of bizarre login names/handles there were until after I'd already chosen this one. Besides, it's what I use everywhere else. Saves me having to keep a log of my login names.

dennilfloss, I remember that song! Please excuse the repetitive use of the word bizarre, but that's the only word I can think of to describe it.

Zappa's a nut -kd5-


Killbat, that explains everything.......

 

[dennilfloss]

"Zappa's a nut -kd5-"

But he's my kind of nut, part genius, part pervert, all musician.

[yakko]

<< I like the Tool, and I'm a girl. >>


Pervert.

 

[Regine]

band Tool, yakko, band Tool
get your quotes right.

You're the pervert

 

[yakko]

<< bad Tool, yakko, bad Tool >>



I never misqoute.

 

[Regine]

<< I never misqoute >>


Or misspell things

 

[yakko]

<< Or misspell things >>



Thit's right.

 

[kduncan5]

dennil, part genius, yes, but part pervert? I'd say he has a 'bizarre' sense of humor, which only people like us can appreciate, but I wouldn't necessarily say he's a pervert.....

He definitely made some outrageous music though! I remember the Mothers of Invention!! -kd5-

 

[Gatsby]

Cause in an ephinaphy of a moment I decreed myself to be Jay Gatsby or a modern day translation of him.

Its either that.. or I was hit in teh head too much when I was a child.

I hvae yet to decide.

Gatsby

 

[thraashman]

well the intent with my name was that it was originally gonna be Thrashman. However about 6 or 7 years ago when I first got online I was using AOL and both Thrasher and Thrashman were already in use, so I chose Thraashman. I kept it so that people who I knew would easily remember that name at Hotmail or Yahoo or whatever I used. Now it's just kinda what I'm used to.

 

[GreekGod]

Greek God, because they f'ng banned Linux23!!!

I do look like a Greek God, but that another thread.

 

[AngelOfDeath]

Well, I have used it for a long time whenever playing Q3. And since my homemade skin is suppose to be my version of an Angel Of Death then I thought I stick with it.

Although my name doesn't sound nice I'm still a nice and down to earth guy .

AoD

 

[Superwombat]

It's my real name...

 

[Ranger X]

I remember a thread like this was started before. I played a lot of role playing games, hence that is where Ranger came from. X from Racer X and also it's stupid to be called Ranger.
