Hayden Kered Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I do realize this is a Star Wars forum, but still ppl lets be original. So I guess you would want us all to change our user name's just because they are not original? I don't understand why this is such a big deal.

Emperor Devon Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Also, I joined when Jimbo was away with the Army, so if someone accidentally thought I was male, I was in no particular hurry to disabuse them of that notion. Didin't you mention something about that once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth333 Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I don't know of any Dark Ladies that included numbers in their names. I guess that means I have chosen an original name without knowing it then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Catto Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 You live a very sad life to complain about peoples usernames. Mine, as i like to think is very original, and i dont have a problem what so ever about 'originality'. And besides, is there really such thing as originality anymore?

Diego Varen Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I do realize this is a Star Wars forum, but still ppl lets be original. You've explained it yourself, this is a Star Wars forum and people are going to have Usernames to do with Star Wars things, so I'm afraid you're going to have to cope with the fact that people will have Star Wars Usernames. On another Forum I used to visit, the majority of the members had names to do with that subject. I'm surprised that this Thread is still open, to be honest. Off-topic: Jae being a male would've shocked me. Just like the time when Emperor Devon claimed he was a female. (Reminds myself of those good old Family Guy moments).

HerbieZ Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I always thought Moeller was female, i've said it before i know but i like to say it again and again. Dunno what it was. Possibly all those Keira Knightly sigs that actually made me think... Hey maybe this person looks like her. And well i thought i was in there. Still the best call was me not sending those messages i had lined up. Lucky for me i found the picture thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth InSidious Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I signed up in a hurry, wanted to fit in, and couldn't think of anything especially original. I *could* change my screen-name now, but it'd confuse the hell out of everyone, esp. when it comes to downloading mods... Besides, it's not like you can't tell everyone apart, what with avatars, signatures, locations and custom member titles for each member, not to mention unique posting styles...

Darth Reign Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I was going to choose the name --The Booty-- But, I like my Darth name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jae Onasi Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Yeah, but I was just messin with Jason, besides usually when you think of the name Jae you usually think that name screams FEMALE! You would think that, but I got mistaken for a guy a number of times. I also had a Yoda avatar at that point so it was a little ambiguous. Also, I joined when Jimbo was away with the Army, so if someone accidentally thought I was male, I was in no particular hurry to disabuse them of that notion. Didin't you mention something about that once? Probably. I could dig through 2700 posts to figure out where and when, but I hear the call of a. NWN and b. a nap.

Emperor Devon Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I hear the call of a. NWN and b. a nap. You just love flaunting that, don't you? I actually meant that you'd mentioned at some point why you didn't mind if someone thought you were male. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Obi-Wan Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I don't give a damn if it's not original. Same here. I just used the first part of my fav. SW character and added Commander at the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 To hell with this 'originality'. Let people name themselves whatever the hell they want, and leave them alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabish Bini Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 My name's original, kinda, ok it's not. But I like it. Stop flaming people just because they don't have 'original' names. Like Doc said, leave 'em alone. They like their names, so don't go putting 'em down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobQel-Droma Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Just a few questions. First of all, why are you peeved by it, when it isn't even your own problem? Secondly, what do you expect?

Jeremia Skywalk Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 My name is not original, beacause... wait it is. It is so original, i have no idea what it means, but i am quite sure it has something to do with laser arcade game... -Edit: Whoops i thought I had name Qwazar here same as everywhere else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediMaster12 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Mine was so original people couldn't figure out if I was a boy or girl at first. My problem is that everyone assumed I was a guy. It didn't help that I had John Cena as my avatar. My username may sound like I came off an assembly line but hey I wanted to be kept in theme. My username at KFM is Kirabaros. Those who have read my fics would know what it means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Joker Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 My username may sound like I came off an assembly line but hey I wanted to be kept in theme. This padawan inspected for quality by Jedi Master #12. "They don't say 'Jedi Knight' until I say they say 'Jedi Knight'..." Back on topic, I'm so inspired by this thread that I think I'll change my username to "Darth_Vader_89" Eh? How's that for original? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Dravis Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Those who know me know where my name comes from, I can be tracked all across the world with it Power Rangers! Mine's from my first and only favorite game, Descent. I need a new next-gen 6DOF game! That 1993-1999 stuff is getting dated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mav Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Originality is such a novel concept, but in all truth, even with the scarce amount of time humans have been on this planet to conceive "original" ideas, the well is dry my friend. There are very few ideas out there today that are original or unique. Point in case let us look at your name, I am sure there is a story to it and a reason you chose your name, but if you drew letters out of a scrabble bag and assembled your name, forgive me. So if you trace it back far enough I am doubtful you will find anyone's name to be unique and if that troubles you, well then my friend... you suck.
