Some people on this board have names that are plays on their real names (ie Stacer, SaintEhlers....) but how did the rest of you come up with your names. I got mine from a couple places. Starcraft was one of them, another is a play off of Archaon in Warhammer Chaos. What about the rest of you?

I think there was a thread like this from awile ago.  Onion of Death had some funny story about a potato cannon, that's the only one I really remember.

Eagle Prince is the literal meaning of the name Jax Ryan, who is basically my alter ego.

Does Jax, Jack, Jax, Jack, Ryan have an alter ego that he uses as his scapegoat to super-humate?

Could you explain what you mean?

Does my alter ego have an alter ego?  Yes.  Does Jax Ryan have anything to do with Jack Ryan (which I believe is a Tom Clancy character)?  No, I've never really read about him, but I've had one or two people point out the similar name before.

Brenna was my AORP character's name, and so I just kept the name for use with the rest of the board.

    Thanks T.F.O. I found it earlier after Eagle Prince said something, but I didnt bother mentioning it because I was just going to let the thread fade out.

    Then again, a lot of the people that have come flooding in never even post. In the last two pages of members only Outkast, Sminja, and I have more than a hundred posts. Not to say that they can't explain their names, it is just interesting that the older members all say that people are flooding in like the site is getting busy, but the newbies don't post.

To me you are an older member as you were already above level twenty when I came, and you are considered a regular. I don't get why people are creating profiles like this and never using them, what do they get out of it?

T.F.O isn't on level 20 because he's an older member. T.F.O is on level 20 because he spams a lot.

Now, SE is on level 70 or so because he is an older member *and* he spams a lot.

I suppose it makes them feel special, but then they become too nervous to post, leaving the whole experience somewhat fake  and hollow...
JP, Ive been here longer than gorgon and onion...
and I dont spam nearly as much.

Then there's people like me, who've been here longer than most all you guys, and still haven't reached level 10!  But I do keep up on almost all of what you guys are writing about here.  It's just funnier for me to read than to participate in most of your conversations.
