I often think about the nicknames people haven choosen for the forum.
So maybe people want to tell WHY.

My nickname was (nearly) always Rubberduck.
I have choosen it from the movie "Convoy" with
Kris Kristofferson and Ali MacGraw.

So maybe others also tell why they use those nicks.

Beardboy, Titan, corrupt, invalid user Very Happy

I needed a unique nickname at the time (way back when) when I had signed up to play games on Heat.net. After trying many... corrupt wasn't taken and has followed me since... yeah... that's the story... and I'm sticking to it... Laughing

. My real name can be found on-line here and there though...

I have used my nickname Wingfat for many many years now online. When i starting useing it back in 1996 for my email address and in game player name it wasnt that big. now when i go to fourms some times i have to add a number to the end of my nickname just to use the same online name i have had for almost 10 years now.
But yeah i got my name from an old woody Allen movie, and it is pretty ubscure so that is why i explain it in my Signaature tag. But i am almost ready to pick a newer less known name. seeing as how the Wingfat printing company is now making electronics and other stuff, it might be a house hold name sometime soon. Smile

'Titan' was the first thing that came to my head, who knows why Rolling Eyes

Like for Titan, it was (one of the) first things whitch came to my mind. I liked sonority, and the fact that it can make think of something of diabolic, whereas I am an angel !!! Laughing

And then I didn't meet many others with this nickname over the Net.

RA stands for Resident Assistant - from my time living in college dorms. I was celebrating that I got married (and was an RA no more) Wink

My son chooses cute names for games and forums, but after a while it does not sound so cute any more. Like C4PT4IN4N4RCHY. And it sticks, since he does not want re-register for a better nick name. I had a few nick name candidates, like LuvSux, Let1Go or GetLost, but I figured I would hate them after a few months. So I chose my first name as jonny did. At least mine has less chance for a collision.

I have a buddy that uses one of those "Star Wars" name generators to pick the names he uses on line. some of them are pretty funny. I presonally like the random Super Hero name one better though Wink

its my name!

TeknoMusicMan · Joined: 14 Apr 2005 Posts: 188 Location: Wisconsin, USA

I've been using TeknoMusicMan since wow the first time I ever used the internet with that evil AOL free trial Razz

I chose it because I'm a techno music fan. I didn't use TechnoMusicMan because i ran into the "name already taken" a few times.

ever since MMORPG's have been around I've adobted a few other names because i can have more then 1 charater most of the time.

Muad'Dib - if I can snag it before anyone else
Itinerant - "One who travels from place to place"
Korrupt - I guess i was feeling 1337 that day Razz

In the grand, color-bending tradition of psychedelic experimentalism, Pink Floyd's Atom Heart Mother takes as its title an inscrutable phrase and under the title launches a similarly inscrutable--or at least dense--musical concatenation. The title suite features French-horn-led brass melodies riffed on by David Gilmour's guitar and the rhythm section, all of which veers into choral passages that recall György Ligeti's vocal works and then almost atonal pulses of keyboards that mask reams of audio snippets swirling underneath. And then there's some moody folk from Roger Waters, an almost Kinks-ish rambler from Richard Wright, then more moody folk (this time from Gilmour) on "Fat Old Sun," and, to close, the spirited melodic runaround of "Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast." There's a range of emotion here, from doleful to crazed to humorous (especially the dramatized comments on macrobiotics in the closer). Atom Heart Mother was a spotlight ahead for Pink Floyd, showing the extensions of form the band would engage in so successfully on Dark Side of the Moon just a few short years later. --Andrew Bartlett
