Some of you might know, my name comes from the blobs in the trees in maplestory but... they got rid of the tree!!! the origin of my name is gone T_T waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah it's not fair! :crywithno:
How could they kill me like that! The slime king is gone too! my avatar!!! iyaaaaaaaaaaaaa :noway:
so anyways, how did you come up with your username and what does it mean?
My original name was L-Angel.
L has various meanings that I don't feel like getting into.
Angel because I love those wings :)
I dropped the L because this looks better :=D:
Quite easy.
Irl nickname is Harry.
And I used to like Rammstein.
Morph them together and you get Harrstein
Served me well for bout 8 years or so
That is really easy.. And here I was, wondering all this time... :swt:
WAIT, THEY TOOK OUT KING SLIME? WHAAAAAAAAAT.
actually, my name originates from maplestory too, LOL. Soraiiya was my IGN when i played back in the day~ originally it was Soraiya (with one I) when i played uhh... dofus for like a week, but then my first character got hacked so i made a new one - Soraiiya! it's been my go-to username for a good seven or so years.
*sigh* You guys have such interesting origins.
My name isn't very interesting. XD I saw it somewhere online and stole it >:3
Just kidding, I did see it online but I really liked it at the time and just made that my username. There have been times where I have REALLY wanted to change it, but I think people would still call me Aurelia/Lia. Apparently, it just fits me too perfectly for me to change. xD I would probably even respond to it if someone yelled "HEY LIA" across the street.
:swt:
LOL Lia
Mine also came from maplestory :P I was talking to some random guy and he asked me for my name. After that he decided to call me Krissy. Not very interesting... I was originally going to go with Ayomiri but then decided to go with a name that sounded more like a name.
O.O so many maplestory names!
Verdandi is one of the Norns in Norse mythology. I'm from Norwegian descent, and am really interested in Norse mythology. My real name is Valerie, so Verdandi is sort of like my alter ego. I use it for games and other accounts and such as well as here.
That's so interesting Dani!
Thank you! I also identify with angels for various reasons, and am obsessed with angel wings, so before I adopted Verdandi back in high school, I chose angels as my motif, so I REALLY like your name.
:love:
I love your RL name too! Valerie~ it flows so nicely and really suits you! ^_^
Got my name from a car, LOL. I'm not a revhead though.
...And because it's reminiscent of Valhalla (I'm also extremely interested in Norse mytholgy - er...any mythology, in fact). I was flipping between Vauxhall and Valhalla, and decided to go with Vauxhall because... I mean, look at that awesome car logo.

My original username was NibbPower ; i came up with this name because Nibb = Noob and just cause we're noobs doesn't mean we don't got power. So that's how I gave up with my name; and its somewhat almost everything I use like DA, Twitter, AU. and some other ones that I don't use as much I use to. (:
I change it to Yuukari, because Yuuki = Snow; which also means what my chinese name stand for. I added the ari put because it sounds cuter and more unique. I actually don't really know what the ari part means. >_<

HAHAHAHHAHAHA LOL.
Not only is there a town, there is a car brand too? xD Oh the wonder... ^_^
Why thank you.
I'm assuming half of these people got it from maplestory.
They didn't take out king slime, they put it another map.
So the king of slime does exist! :bingo:
Because if they took out king slime, then they might as well take out mushmom. The thing is King Slime is ten times easier to kill than it was before. So, I guess you can see that it's not what it use to be.
OT: I forgot to add in something, my username : NibbPower was also somewhat a group name in Steam / Valve.
:O another mapler!! Wow the numbers just keep getting bigger and bigger LOL. I remember fighting king slime in KPQ when it was really crowded and worth it back in the day ^^; I even used auto clicker sometimes... For LPQ too haha. Oh man now I want to play maple ;___;
LOL well I in my lameness haven't heard of maple story until now... :indotz:
Oh I left maplestory a long time ago.
Start - End : Nov 2005 - Dec 2008.
I started again in June - July 2011
And again in June - Jan, 7 2013
That was the last time I played, but I know some new information because my brother and some of my friends plays, that's how I get my information. XD
I suggest you not to play, unless you want to take the risk of getting stuck. Nexon is too lazy to fix their glitches, so there are bunches of hackers and glitches in the map. You know those fairy that use to make wedding rings for the male, well they're now event fairies and some of the events are old and are glitches, so the "create a character" they're stuck in the places that the event fairies are in. So its a 50/50 that you won't get stuck, you can try though.
@Lia, well its probably since maplestory is much easier and more things so its more popular than it was back then than it is now. I like the original maplestory, it was more fun. more ways to start your journey, now its just a cheap and lame game. It's still fun, but you have to find good friends. >_<
OT: For the usernames, isn't it best to have it different from your login so that people won't hack your account. It's possible, but not accurate. c:
Ah, so that is Maply Story...
*High Five* you didnt know about it either? Yaaay I'm not alone ^^;;
*high five* We're together in our ignorance about Maple Story!
:goodjob: And our knowledge of star wars! (well your knowledge and my sort of knowledge xD)
Yay Star Wars! :goodjob:
Okay this is random, but it sort of has to do with names. You know City and Colour? The guy behind their music is named Dallas Green or something like that.
City and Colour! XD I thought that was pretty cool.
That really is pretty cool :goodjob:

as for my username, the first one (enil14someone) "enil" came from half of my name. "14" came from my age then. and "someone" was just a word that popped in my mind.
my current username was easier since the word "hidden" and "twilight" just came to mind (i was kinda thinking why there were many word with "twilight" nowadays [i.e "vanilla twilight by owl city and "the twilight" movie]). so I chose the word "Hidden" and added "Twilight" so I got "Hidden_Twilight". pretty much dumb and easy ^^;;.
Dandi, have you read the book The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater?

Freya approves. Bring the squealing out :wahaha:
OMG I'd pay good money to see a video of Vaux squealing.
Middle Earth mythology is pretty awesome, too. I actually wanted to write my senior thesis in high school on "Mapping Middle Earth" to apply it as though it were our history, but I was told I had to do something 'real' so I ended up researching mental illness.
Basically, anything with Lore (and languages!) is cool. I like WoW for this reason...

Nope. There won't be a video. And huh. You could have easily just based your thesis on Tolkien's work. I mean... they
are REAL books, lol. Even though it's fiction... xD
And hahaha, it's ok. No one really minds.
vaux, tis a good chance to make money, go do something about it. :hmmm:
No, thanks. I like my dignity in tact. xD

You had no idea what you were going to unleash, did you? :=X:
I thought it would stop the moment I said I didn't literally squeal, and it was all internal and imagined. But noooooooooooooooooope. *stares*
Of course not. you know us by now right?
I was testing the boundaries on how specific I should be... :goodjob:
awwwww. please? :o_o:
VERY specific.

Well I can't see it, because it says
QuoteThe topic or board you are looking for appears to be either missing or off limits to you.
QuoteWe've had a couple of people changing their screen name and it's getting a little confusing, so if you change your name please post here so we know that you're you and not some weird person pretending to be staff.
It is in the staff thread, but this is what it says.
You could also make a new thread and post your changes there for the non-staffers
Oh alright, then i changed it to < 3
I'll stick to this, since that's my username in almost half of the forums I go to.
i'm shocked that it works though.
Me too... I didn't think it would o-o
Well, we all learn something new a day. xD
oooo, wait does roman characters work? Like those scribbly looking characters?

:swt: I'm not the technical PR type... I know how everything works, but what it is all called.... ???
dunno ???
who knows, give it a try.
Whenever I get PMs from you though, it comes up as "New comment by <3"
At first I was like... uh... who is that? :swt:
This is my personal opinion, but I think it's useless to have a username that isn't an actual name of some sort. It's difficult enough to keep people straight when they use very different names in the chatbox than the forum, but having a symbol instead of a word as your forum username is pointless. It's cute, but usernames aren't there to be decorative, they are there for people to know who you are and what to call you. If you want to be cute and decorative, that is what your signature is for.
oo good point, but so harsh too. metaphorically speaking it would be like dandi putting a sledgehammer in front of Sally when she's cycling downhill at 50mph
True, but she does have a point.
Like I said before, I don't want a username that same exact thing as my log-in ID. Because then people would figure it out later. I never thought of it as cute or decorative, I just thought that it works. That's all, nothing wrong with testing new functions you'd never tried it before. Because not all communities works, so I was testing if it works. And as Angel said before, if I was forced to change it to a proper username, I would and I'll post in here. Since I'm no longer a "staff", so I cannot post in the "staff" section. If you thought I was just getting attention with my creative username, then you're wrong at that. I don't need attention, because it's not necessary at this point.

I never said that at all. Sorry if you got offended, but I didn't mean it that way. I also don't have a problem with anyone testing the available functions, and it's not my decision to make what sort of usernames people may use. I wasn't even trying to be harsh, and I sure as hell didn't mean it personally.
All I said was that it doesn't make sense to have a user
name that isn't a name since it makes it difficult for others. I was simply adding another bit of perspective to the discussion.
You could always call her Less-Than-3. *shrugs*
Way to un-cute it Vallypoo.
I know. I'm quite proud of it.
it is a good thing to uncute it. as imho it like my daughter dandi said it is quite annoying. though i vote for calling her 5133 as thats her userid
^ LOL! And Harr takes the cake.
:swt:
....I wasn't offended. i changed it to something you guys could understand, a Nickname I go by in games. It's not that hard to figure out my real name from judging by the name I'm using. But harr, the way you say it, like its annoying, then ok. Like I care.
You shouldn't reduce your daughter to a number Harr.
Quote from: Angel~ on June 25, 2013, 10:21

i didnt. the number is for the namechanger
would've written a script that changed the name to something more easy, but that aint neccecary anymore
Wow. what an effort :swt:
I love how Daddy Harr reduces everything to coding/engineering. It's so...anti-whimsy.
And because of that, also refreshing?
Yes. Although that's the first time I've ever heard engineering called refreshing....and possibly the last time as well.
Yeah, I never thought it would be described as that... :swt:
I don't think I need to explain mines; i probably already explain but I'm too lazy to go through all the pages.
I got my name from a friend on steam; her name is Michelle. She gave me the nickname because she wubbs me c:
I've always liked the name "Rose" since I was a child. At one point I had told my parents that when I turned 18 I was going to legally change it to "Rose". :wahaha:
Well in about 7th or 8th grade my best friend and I are started writing a fanfiction for FullMetal Alchemist. Our two OCs were kind of our alter egos and they get 'transported' in FMA because they were screwing around one night and made a transmutation circle that actually worked. This is the first in our Supernatural series. We have like 3 or 4 stories planned that all interlink. From Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles, to Death Note, to Fruit Basket. It's really neat actually.
Anyways. So in the FMA story my character ends up becoming a State Alchemist so that her and her friend can do more research and find their way back home. She ends up becoming the CrimsonRose Alchemist. So I went by 'CrimzonRoze' or "CrimzonRozeAlchemist" for awhile because it was neat and having the "z" in there was cool and different.
I use to play horse sim games and I'd brand my horses as "Roze" after awhile I got tired of CrimzonRozeAlchemist and decided to change it to something that I liked better but I wanted to keep the 'Roze" part. So I really liked white roses so it became "WhiteRozePetals" and I was that for awhile, now I've kinda dropped off the "White" and "Petals" and have become "`Roze`" as I feel it's a bit more mature and everyone online I go knows me as "Roze" I still keep "WhiteRozePetals" on other sites were "`Roze`" is taken or is too short/not allowed/etc but I don't like it as much anymore. It seems childish now that I'm older. But it's hard to get away from because everyone knows me as it.
fun fact: roze means pink in Dutch~
ahaha, roze's name is so girly and flowerly( i hope this is a word ).
But the "Z" in there differently makes it less girly and flower-y. *h3r0
*is not a girly person*
Quote from: `Shally. on January 17, 2014, 08:22

regarding usernames....
since everyone calls me "pau" here, does that mean my nicknames now a username? ???
No, a nickname is something that people give you, a username is something you give yourself. :=X:
Good explanation Zephy~
