| Swamper |
| ...was a fan of the comic Swamp Thing in the mid 80s - stuck with that screen name until the mid 90s when I got on chat (IRC) and was limited to the # of characters I could use - Swamper was born (lol) |

| Fir3start3r |
Fir3start3r was born as an online persona shortly after Quake I while playing online.
Tried to register, "Firestarter", without the 3 = e but some shmuck already registered it here :mad:
(I think they landed up getting baninated from TA but I just never bothered to follow up in changing the name) :p
I picked the name up shortly after Prodigy's, "The Fat of the Land" CD came out (as you've probably already guessed).
I like it for a couple reasons;
a) I'm normally pretty laid back (lethargic?) so the name reminds me to move ma ass!
b) There's a preception while playing online games not to mess with me ;)
c) It's easy to remember (which sometimes I need nevermind my net buddies...)
my real nickname is, "Inky" though; last name is Inkster so not a far stretch...1/2 my friends in college were "Jeff". :crazy: |

Let's hear YOUR nick explanation... and it'd better be more than "I was too lazy to come up with one, so I just used my name" |
