[TheGentleman]

Suffice to say "TheGentleman" was not my original alias.

Based on my last name my alias for years was Chadders which evolved into ChadChad then to plain old Chad. TheGentleman is a far more recent alias and a mindset I attempt to bring to all my games. I'll even tell my foe what race I am if I chose random.

Quick Comments

	syfChadMann:	Preferred your old names..
	breadfan:	Pretty sure telling people your race as random is not very gentlemanly!

[DemiseCloudy]

Well myne was pretty simple becasue its my nickame "Cloudy" which is pretty much my name these days and i added my clan name "Demise" to it.... so put it together you get DemiseCloudy =D

[Prodigga]

Well.. Prodigga.. It started of as prodigal. Got into a clan for CoD, jumped on voice chat and I realized I didn't know how to pronounce it. Morphed to Prodigga from there (pro-digger)

[Shieldz]

syfSoundwave:

Dante has the best theme in that game.

[Ghosty]

I had a friend called Ghosty I used to play WoW with, but life happened and he had to stop playing & I didn't get to see him quite as often, so I took his name in remembrance & of his good-gaming deeds ^^

[TCPKerO]

kERo is my nickname from friends, its from Kerosene. My other well used nick is Izotz which I obtained for my Frost Mage in wow, it mean ice in Braquse I believe (spelling >.<)

[FSwolfbomb]

First time I used this was in a private server for Ragnarok 5 years ago. XD
wolfs look cool and I always had a ton of jokes that had to do with farting in high school. They called me a bomber of all noses. Therefore, wolfbomb to me and my friends meant "fartingwolf". XD

[Hijung]

My actual IGN is Junglened, Posijuice was me attempting to branch out, but I've retired that ign.

Short story about Posijuice: Big Tim Burton fan, is from one of his Beetlejuice cartoons.

Alright, now to Junglened.

So, I was pretty big on World Of Warcraft... for 24 levels, haha.

My main problem with anything is indecision. I think the greatest game of all time is vanilla WoW but my favorite is Deus Ex.

But, I digress, my main problem in WoW was indecision. I had the problem of choice, if there is a flaw in my character than I will delete and repeat. I think I rolled... 100 characters in a month?

Anyhow, the farthest I got was with a dwarf hunter named Lingua (hihi if anyone remembers, lol) who got to level 24.

Now, I remember where I got the name... I own a Farside Comic collection and one day I was reading it, and then the caption on the bottom read 'it's a jungle out there, Ned!'. So that's where I derived the name from. JungleNed.

However, I don't exactly remember where I implemented it. From what I can muster I think I used it on a Troll Hunter, and it's stuck since. It could just as easily be my pet Emu thingy with Lingua.. But again, the name has just stuck.

And that's it, really.

[akky]

After my fav. manga of all time, Akira.

Used it for SC/BW (votfa.akira/aus.akira), but shortened it to akky for sc2

[Fairyking]

When I was playing WoW I decided to make a mage that uses agility etc (a mage rogue) and Roage was born

[BearPack]

As a child, I fought off a pack of bears in Siberia with a small hatchet, and the townsfolk started calling me "bearpack" as a tribute to my strength and bravery.

[Ripped]

Was smoking cones and someone said Ripped. Boom.

[GoGoWaffles]

Used this name to make it harder (and more hilarious) for the casters during BF2/2142 and it stuck. I took a couple of Go's out of it though.

Quick Comments

NOM:

Waffles <3

[Akilos]

well I got tired of Redbearer ( still don't really know why I used that)
and I was like playing a little God of War and well I saw those Titans...that's pretty how it started
when I decided to use Titan as an ingame name

[Strafe]

The most fun Amazon skill in D2, which I was playing at the time when I made my Starcraft account. My d2 name before that was something like FatLardAss, so yeah I think it's an improvement

Quick Comments

	Maynarde:	LOL
	ayuruji:	Very well done SIR!!!

[ayuruji]

I named my ign by my name in DotA

[zaney]

I just added a Y to my name back in highschool.

It needs to all be lowercase. (warning long story ahead)
In the online social game Erepublik, I was a significant factor in the "nation" of Australia. and as a mental note to myself to keep things humble among the praise, I always made sure to write my name in lowercase.
It certainly becomes a challenge between ego and reality when more than a thousand people you have never met refer to you as a "diety" of the game.

If you ever see me as my other nickname "UNIsTaken", it simply refers to "UserNameIs Taken" (that means "zaney" has been registered)

[MrSandman]

Mine comes from my steam id, which I picked because I had just started reading the Sandman Chronicles by Neil Gaiman.

[tioN]

tioN comes from the suffix tion for example extortion,evacuation,etc. but people ended up pronouncing it (tee-on) so it just stuck.
