User Name...what's it mean??

[1Avatar]

I used to play Starcraft back in the day and always had a hidden army or built in such a way that most people wrote me off in the game, then all of a sudden, the map would "move" as I pretty much blitzed the other team or saved my team mates that thought we were done for. So a lot of people started calling me Avatar, always there, but never noticed it until it counted - kinda stuck actually because I ended up using the name as part of my consulting company

[Shigane]

Shigane is the heart of the katana sword's blade. Everyone knows what it's edge can do.

[WickedCommotion]

Let's see... Used this Screen Name for a very long time. Use it on every messenger and email address. I used to go by Wicked Peanut in my days of school.. I ran several BBs' mostly Wildcat stuff. Remember using 300, 500 baud modems then the 1200.. We came along way. Eventually grewup or atleast I think I did. Depends who you ask and opened a computer store/repair place named Commotion's.... So Wicked Commotion was born. Been building computers for a long time and deal with Amd and Intel.. But having major problems with a certain Prescott 478... My own. Too Hot. By hey I'll take care of it one way or another... Can you say Vapochill....lol BE is a great place and great people. By far the best forums I've ever visited since using any connection. Period.

[hey]

When my close friends used to call me via cell phone, they always prefaced the conversation with 'hey, ....' The name stuck.

[Mrs.Hey]

Since I am the wife of above (hey), I became Mrs. Hey! LOL!!! Gee...go figure!!!!

[Wireless-G]

802.11g is my method of connecting to my router AND my name is Greg, so Wireless-G is a combo of both.

Sadly I stole this from another friend named Greg who came up with it.

Oh well.

[83racecrew]

Well, my other hobby also involves going as fast as possible, only in circles (errr....ovals ) 83 is the car number, and I am on the crew.

[Milkman]

I am a Milkman, so I adopted it as a username, same on some other forums although
my Heatware is under real name

-Milkman

[Propellorhead]

I've had a thing for BMW's since my folks first got one when i was 7. As some of you may know, the roundel on a BMW's bonnet is actually a spinning propellor (in the colours of the Bavarian Flag) Which came from originally being an aircraft engine manufacturer(sorry I'm a geek). Thus the name.

[AceGoober]

My name goes back a long way with me.

I am a computer 'enthusiast' in the most straightforward of terminology. I run a private computer business on the side from my primary 8 to 5 job. My main skills involve tuning hardware to run at the fastest it was made to run at stock speeds. I match hardware with what people use then tweak it for the best performace without overclocking. About 15 or more years ago, people started calling me Ace for my abilities with computers. The name stuck ever since.

I like to make people laugh. It doesn't matter if it is a good or bad joke/guesture/comment. As long as it brings a smile to someone, then that is what really matters. Several years ago, many of my friends (online and off) started calling me a Goober when I made some off the wall comment or joke. And that stuck as well.

When I started playing online games (1200 baud modem days ), I needed a name to fit me. I ran with a few such as BoneHead, Sceptic (more on that one later), FishBag, Lard (to name a few) but wanted something that fit me. And that is when I fit 2 and 2 together to get AceGoober.

I have been known by this for a long, long time and I believe it fits me well. It relates to my abilities with computers and the fact that I believe everyone needs laughter in their life. It doesn't matter what type of day a person has had. Even a badly repeated joke has a little bit of humorous value to it. One of the squads I am with even dedicated a forum to me (2nd frame, 3rd down):



I usually post there 4 or more times a week with anything that is not deemed offensive to anyone. Only a couple of occasions have I let one slip by and have been called on it.

And now you know why I am called AceGoober.

[Gbud]

Well lets see... When I was playing Duke Nukem 3d on T.E.N., I inhaled an incredible amount of thick rich smoke. I was going by another name at the time.... But when Quake came round, Gbud came out to play. And although I have not smoked in years, the name remains.

[ALX_eater]

The name of my next beast....I'm not anti-alienware but I'll be damned if I spend over 5 and a half for a machine I can build myself. Maybe I should call it the 4 grand can...."we have the tech to build it but we don't want to spend alot of money"

[Hawk]

Maybe I should call it the 4 grand can....

[ALX_eater]

LOL I think I can acquire an empty pony keg and put everything inside
