Off Topic: What’s in your screen name and avatar???

[Huckleberried]

my nickname just stuchk from the old mIRC days (used to be mInX), but people kept stealing it, and now there's even some stupid fingernail salon (online no less) with that name....so, I just played with the phonetics...and meanckz it has been for years

my Avatar is Arancar #3 from the anime Bleach...she's generally in a little girls form, her second form is of a young woman with big gazoongas and her third is of a female centaur
I like her character...specially in little girls form when she's bawling like grazy...she's hilarious

I was pronouncing it right!!

My screen name is due to my boyfriend's nickname, Huckleberry. I got "Huckleberried" when we met. My avatar is my boy cat Bosco. My wonderful little goofball friend.

[Baditude]

My username Baditude has been used by me in all of the forums that I've been associated with for several years. It was my XBox Live username back when I was an online gamer. I wanted a bad azz name that sounded macho and nasty. Shortened from "Bad Attitude". I use BADITUD on my personalized license plate.

My avatar of a revolver with cigarettes instead of bullets represents how cigarettes are like slow suicide if you choose to continue smoking.

 

[FearTX]

Fear has been my gaming name since you could put 4 characters in coin ops as opposed to the initial 3 (it was BAT then). It was fun in Quake "Fear has entered the game" upon joining. I usually do FearTX now because Fear is %99.9999999999999999999999999% of the time already in use. My avatars are some random fear pic from google images and may change from time to time. Unless I get unlazy and use my Steam Avatar, I have that saved somewhere.

Any yes, I am 47 and still playing video games. I enjoy beating the crap out of teenagers then telling them they just got owned by a Grandpa.

47 is not that old I'm over 60 and still play WoW online with my son every evening, and talk on the phone at the same time for a couple hours. We are both vapor's now. and we exchange tips and vaping ideas at the same time. Of course he always comes up with I really would like one of those Dad! Had to get him a iTaste 134.

 

[EddardinWinter]

My name is an obvious reference to Game of Thrones, to any who have watched season one. But it is a layered reference. When I started watching Eddard "Ned" Stark was my favorite character. His Honor, his loyalty, his absolute convictions. I was torn though, because I have always had an affinity for the Lion, which is the symbol of House Lannsiter. Not to mention Tywin Lannsiter is just plain awesome, as are his brood of ridiculously clever and conniving children. As I read the books following season one's close of the show, my admiration for House Lannister grew.

When the Lannisters and Starks came to blows, Eddards steadfast and rigid ways got him beheaded by the scheming and delightfully devious Lannisters. I had been won over to House Lannsiter for good, but I still respected Eddard. So the first part of the name is a tribute to Ned Stark. "inWinter" refers to his death at the hands of my beloved Lions of Lannister.

Perhaps most important, my favorite movie EVER is "The Lion in Winter". Now this movie is simply amazing. The story of Henry II, Eleanor, Richard the Lionheart, John, Phillip of France and their struggles to control England nearing the end of Henry's reign. When I started in other forums, The Lion in Winter in any use-able form seemed to be taken, so I chose this one instead.

Henry II: I've snapped and plotted all my life. There's no other way to be alive, king, and fifty all at once.

I suppose all of that explains my Avatar. I just love the majestic look of a Pride Male and the amazingly complex social relationships that go into the workings of a pride of lions. I also chose that avatar here on this forum so that I could not be mistaken for a Stark given the mixed message of my screen name.

That is a lot of explanation. I could see no shorter way to do it justice.

 

[sleepyhatch]

Winter is coming. I can't wait for the new season Game of Thrones to start!

 

[Fortyniene]

My screen name is because I'm a Fortyniner fan. The weird spelling is because when I first set up an AOL acount in the 90's fortynine was taken so I changed the spelling, to this day I have never had a problem using that screen name it's always avaiable. So I have always used it.

My avatar is my 2006 KLR 650. The one true love of my life she has never left me stranded and is moded perfectly for me. My bike and my dog is all I got out of my divorce and I couldn't be happier. Ok I miss my maglite. I should probably replace that maglite I really liked her.

 

[Jackstraw]

My screen name is just a fictitious character in a Grateful Dead song, It's also the name of the song.

 

[chikkaccino]

My screen name is because I'm a chick. I like cappuccino. Ergo, Chikkaccino. As for the avatar... I'm a big fan of zombies. Last Christmas (and the Christmas before that and probably this Christmas too) I made zombie gingerbread men.

 

[Amraann]

My screen name is the first initials of my children's names in birth order and my middle name ann.

My avatar is of my manx kitty Meep Boop (aka Boopy) when he was about 8 weeks old.

 

[Crypto66]

My name is from a video game called Destroy All humans and I just stuck with it since I was 9.

CoD?

Challenge?

I do not play CoD, it is one of the few shooters that I don't. It seems to be very spammy to me. I do not care for the new BFs either, seem like CoD clones with vehicles. Also I play very few games on the console, I am almost exclusively a PC gamer.

47 is not that old I'm over 60 and still play WoW online with my son every evening, and talk on the phone at the same time for a couple hours. We are both vapor's now. and we exchange tips and vaping ideas at the same time. Of course he always comes up with I really would like one of those Dad! Had to get him a iTaste 134.

You should drop that phone and just go VOIP with headphones and ventrillo or TS3, mumble is also an option I tried to get into WoW for the kid's, they enjoyed but I did not. I cut my MMO teeth on ULTIMA, it was a blast, however it ruined me for zero consequence themepark games. I currently play EVE online for my MMO fix, it is brutal and fun. My kids do not play that EVE with me, they also will not play shooters against me, I took the gloves off when they turned 16. Kinda breaks the game when your casual gaming kids have to play against a former competitive gamer We do play some Co-Op games together, those are fun. We do some super nerdy table top gaming as well.

 

[Anjaffm]

My screen name is my name (Anja) and the German abbreviation for the big city nearest to where I live (Ffm).
My avatar picture was taken at a Renaissance Fair, with a dragon on my shoulder. I love attending Renaissance Fairs in medieval garb.
And ... my customized user name ... uhm... can refer simply to my avatar picture *innocent look*. It can also refer to my personality, when faced with less-than-nice people. That is a matter of choice

 

[HauntedMyst]

My avatar is a composite of motorcycle parts put together to look like a panther. It was from a UK motorcycle show a few years ago.

Ultima Online - by the time I could afford a house - there was literally nowhere to put one. :/

I lost a couple years of my life to WoW.

Now I only play CoD once a week as mostly a way to hang out with friends that have moved away.

 

[evan le'garde]

My screen name matches my avatar. Just a bit of fun.
