Handles

Re: Handles....

My first real car (Im excluding a 1990 festiva) was a Ford Focus ZX3. I went to a car show and saw that plate maker guy and wanted to get a licence plate key chain with something to do with my new car. So I thought of ZX3 2NV and well It stuck for my next B-Day I got a real plate in the mail as a gift from my mom. When I 1st started to join forums mostly sport compact and Ford foums I used that as my screen name and now I just use it on all the forums im part of so I don't forget my user name lol.
 
Re: Handles....

I don't have any divine reason or interesting story behind my handle. I was getting sick and tired of some of the older handles I'd used on previous forums, and quickly came up with this one. Well, I'm *short* at 5'2", and...used to play softball. There ya go.

When I was a kid (I'll always be one but I mean a younger kid) I used to dream about dragons all the time. One day I saw this really cool looking chrome dragon in some store window and couldn't get it out of my head. A couple of days later I had to think of a nick. for MechWarrior(the original) and SilverDragon was the first thing that came to my mind. Stuck around since...

Coincidentally the bike I got is silver so it still works!:happy3:

Oh my god.. MechWarrior! I'm hearing that after decades!! Nostalgia....!

I have had the handle Grimmreaper88 for a long time, my email, xbox live tag, and every forum i enter. I even got a custom paint job on my motorcycle to match.
 
Re: Handles....

Seemed appropriate considering the bike!
 
Re: Handles....

When I was in the army I'd a Warrant Officer that used to call me Rockin' Ronnie...

I thought I'd use it for online multiplayer, but I sucked so badly at the first person shooter, I changed it to Rotten Ronnie so that I'd always live up to my handle. Later on I could clear the entire level with a pistol, but it'd stuck by then.

SicSoL - Own many Honda Delsols, One time a random person yells out. "Sic Sol", This is what happens when you invest as much into the car as it was worth at that time.
 
Re: Handles....

mine is weird.. I am commonly called "Felo" due to my middle name Andres Felipe .. and I really like the history behind the name "Atreyu" but every forum always has an "atreyu" .. so long behold the impossible to pronounce afelotreyu :cool: couldn't be more complicated..
 
Re: Handles....

I was working on an MP3 player project in 1998 and joined a tech support forum using this nick and I've been using it ever since. The project internal code name was UFO :)
 
Re: Handles....

Dont you get a handle or nickname from someone else calling you it? You dont really pick out your own do you?

Off the net, yeah. On the net, I'm sure a lot of people have different user names for different sites.

I'm a pilot, so I'm using this name. No police up there!

Re: Handles....

My handle isn't actually Circa( ZOMG LIES!!!), it was originally Mojo, taken from the powerpuff girls mojojojo! Long story short, ex-gf and I used to watch saturday morning cartoons, and then one day at school she calls me mojojojojo(with extra jos), her friends thought it was "cute" and picked up on it, then so did my mates on the rugby team!

Circa just sounds coool.(with 3 o's)

Originally halfo for half ounce, cause my older bro was Ounce. He passed about 2 years ago, and eventually people started calling me Ounce after him to pick up where he left off you know? haha :)
 
Endo

i got this handle when i was doing the safety course with Learning Curves this weekend. I was doing pretty well getting the hang of riding a bike and jus having fun. i guess i got carried away and started trying to pull quicker corners and started looking closer and closer. when i looked up, i realized the guys in front of me were slowing down so i panicked and pulled the brake lever like it was the clutch lol. i ended up doing an endo and jumped off the bike over the handle bars onto my feet while the back of the bike was still in the air. after that i was called endo and used as an example of what not to do. lesson learned

The story on mine (and it's a good one) is back on a previous page but I think most of the people just hear something and then have it in their mind when they're in need of a screen name.
