Just a little get to know you guys thread. How did you pick your handle you use here?? Some interesting names to be sure.

For myself my online name is a extended version of a nickname (Floon) I picked up in my late teens from the Top 100 in a "questionable" gardening magazine ( ;) ). The entry was "Floon the party God" and while I was not an actual party god, I was that sort of a guy. :tonguefinger:

To be honest there are a lot of people know me as Floon and have no idea what my actual name is. :D

 

You?

hehe... yeah, there are a few people I know in person who don't know what Pezzy's real name is.

 

My name derives from the candy Pez. Although I'm not a huge fan, or collector (I do have a few though), I had created the name Pez_Fairy years ago when I chatted in Yahoo! You could create about 6 different aliases under one account, and I was always changing my name, depending on my mood. At one point a bunch of "the regulars" had similar Pez related names, and Pez_Fairy was my addition to the family. For some reason mine stuck.

didn't we have a thread like this a few years ago? :shrug:

 

anyway, I was the president and team leader of a Canine (K-9) Search and Rescue organization in southern New Mexico. We were known by the department of public safety and the border patrol as Border K-9 Search and Rescue, inc. I believe that the organization disbanded or merged into DACSAR (Dona Ana County Search and Rescue a few years after I moved back to the east coast. I bought my pathy out there to use in SAR missions since my accord couldn't handle the terrain or the animals and gear.

Mine is not quite as creative as 5523's or as impressive as k9sar's, but it's the nickname I picked up awhile back,"rooster". See, not impressive nor creative. :FartExplode-vi:

Mine is pretty self explanatory...

 

My most common name online is LORD often followed by a few numbers (usually four) when a program or website will not allow me to simply have LORD. I picked up the name originally playing games such as DOOM on BBS's. The first BBS that I joined and played DOOM online had a competition just after I joined... all said and done I was ranked a "LORD". Which I added to my handle (I don't even remember what it was now), I eventually moved up in rank but LORD stuck and I eventually dropped the rest of it.

 

When I joined AOL I used that along with four numbers following it (because they would not allow it alone) as a secondary, but most used screen name. Since everyone knew me as that, there was no getting away from it. To this day I still have that name :lol:

 

In AOL I eventually had to add "Screen name is not based on religion!" to my profile, because I was getting spammed by bible thumpers... at the rate of nearly 50 a day at the high point! :blink: After I added that statement to my profile, it tapered off FAST and eventually stopped :D

 

 

But as established as that name was for me I just did not feel it appropriate for a Pathfinder forum and after a few months of reading everything and lurking I decided it was time to join these forums (along with the WD21Forums - the first two I joined).. RedPath88 was born. :aok:

Well I picked my user name before my Pathfinder turned up, I thought it was a Terrano like most here in NZ.

I was going to have Terrano, but it was already taken "Big D" comrade.

So TerranoNZ am I, Or TNZ/Tex for short :aok:

I use the same name on youtube :D
