Default I think it's about time for another username thread...

We've gained a lot of new members since the last one of these got buried in the dark sea of GCC, so let's do it again.
That way new members don't have to dig through all those pages (and we all know how DPS's search feature can be).
And it doesn't hurt to have the same info out there twice!


So, new members and old alike, how did your username come to be?

I'm afraid I'm not the most exciting one to start this. Mine is just my name.

Oh, man, how boring can I be? At least you have an intereting name, Indigo! I suspect BuddhaPi is that beautiful dog.

My moniker on various forums, and my blog, too, is "Myth Maker"... don't know why I didn't choose to use that here.

Mine's just my name too. I was lucky enough to be the first Nicole on here, so I didn't have to add anything extra

Mine started out as a user name back when I was playing on-line scrabble with some folks I'd 'met' on facebook. The Anonymous bit was a joke, and Kiwi 'cause I was the only NZer in the group. I've used it in lots of places since.


BTW, Indigo. I really like your new avatar pic.
