Dravin Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Tis a name I came up with for MUDing purposes long ago, I kinda liked it so I've used it since... almost wish it was something profound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berean Posted March 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Huh, Darvin, I thought it was a play on the name Darwin. I am happy this thread took off... I am going to get cocky and post another thread that I love but fizzled on another forum. It is a wonderful get to know you and a get to know oneself question that a friend thought up. I really like it as I love music...let me know if I am too much of a thread starting-fiend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost_Rider Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 (edited) mine is pretty simpe....sorta...Ghost Rider is an old rodeo nick with a new meaning. the new meaning is thus: My Girl CAN NOT know when I ride so i am the Ghost....hehehe Thank goodness that she doesnt read the forums much!!!! :) My Avi changes some from time to time. Either A flaming ghost with a horse with fire or the present Skull with Crossed six guns, the other i use is Cowboy up with a bull skull and flames. All are tied to the name. The only time that this will Deviate is during certain holidays. Then the Backround and Avi Change some to represent this holiday. Mostly St Patricks Day. Hey. I am Irish! lol. Also my music changes with the holidays. So for all you Irish folk....get ready! Edited March 11, 2009 by Ghost_Rider Forgot St Paddys day is a coming!

talisyn Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 (edited) My name is borrowed from a character in 'God Stalk' by P.C. Hodgell. She gets into all sorts of trouble, it usually isn't her fault, she gets hit on the head and falls off roofs a lot. She'd fit right in with my family lol. I keep trying to download a pic of my daughter and I but it won't go through >< Edited March 11, 2009 by talisyn grammar is fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moksha Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I think my name and avatar were both appointed to me by the 10,343 year old ruler of the Costello Galaxy, who first insisted on probing me before the appointing. I will not make life difficult for the moderators by describing the details. However, I have subsequently found myself desiring Diet Coke. Maybe some of you have had similar experiences.

Berean Posted March 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 It depends what you mean by similar Moshka...and I must say I am very impressed that you caught the attention of the leaders of galaxies I have never heard of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
