Why did you pick your Escapist user name?

[Blinksey]

Cause it's what I use on everything.

I really, really hate it when people outright say they don't care that a topic has been done before. If you don't care, why should we care about your topic, or you for that matter? Why invest your time if you don't care?

I think a more important question is why do you care that he doesn't care? Whether he didn't know he was repeating a topic or just didn't care and wanted to start the discussion up again, no harm has come from it, so there's no point in questioning his motives. Either post in the thread and enjoy yourself, or ignore it. There's no point in trying to start an arguement.

Look, and this will be the last post I make about it, as I do not want to derail the thread: I've been here a while, alright? I have some general, maybe limited knowledge of how things work here. We have forum rules, just like any other. Nothing wrong with that, right?

As I understand it, the way to do things around here with threads that you are SURE have been done before is to necro an older thread. Now, they have already been posted. Not hard to find, at all. We all want this community to be the best it can be, and a part of that is a clear understanding of the rules and workings of this site. Posting here is not a right, it is a privledge. Right?

I read the rules, I lurked before joining, I did my part to be a part of this community, not by my OWN rules that I put in place, but by the rules the community sets. The same rules we are all expected to follow. If I broke them, I would be privy to the same criticism. Why not have an expectation (a very, very simple one at that), of fellow users?

It was my old gamertag.
I don't know why I chose it in the first place, I guess I just liked the way it sounded.
But now I'm KittywifaMohawk.

Okay, your point is valid, and, in fact, I totally agree with you. If a thread has been done, don't do it again, follow the rules, and all that. I just thought that we as members of this forum shouldn't berate the hell out of each other. Following the rules is good, and not hating on other members is even better.

i dou not consider imitation what happened as i explaned in my story it was purly at random that my names picked that and yes i do find ZP funny and i catch his show but not as a independence so i have watched all of them i just find him funny i dont wate every week slobering at my com for the new ZP episoad like some fanboy lunitique i also use his advis in a gamer way i actually lisen to what he is saying and the nreason my pic is the imp is cus no that it is a ZP creation more the fact that i like super natural creatures and the imp is cool in a basic way.

 

[Jedoro]

Made it up for my first WoW character, my warrior, and now I use it for all that I can

 

[Eclectic Dreck]

Because it's the same name I use in video games. The name was chosen when I came back to playing counterstrike after many a long year and found out that I was absolute garbage at it and everything else I ever thought I possessed any skill at.

 

[ThePirateMan]

I use this one evrywhere.
And pirates are cool, arr!

 

[this_was_a_mistake]

I couldn't think of anything so I just used my real name out of stupidity.

Sucks, because I just came up with a few.

 

[historybuff]

I'm a History Major in college. And I love it.

 

[Zersy]

I have a oath to not join any other online subscribtion of anything
(meaning Facebook and kiss my candy ass)

I only chose the escapist because I knew it was going to be worth me giving the the goverment the access to my computer and every info about me as well as my porn timings so in memory of this I used this name UNKOWNINCOGNITO because

1. Unknown is something that we don't know therefore you don't know me
2. Incognito is in hiding therefore you will never find me
3. The caps lock makes it harder to read therefore you have no idea what the f"ck it says and will give up trying within 13 seconds considering the attention span of the average person.

I Rest My Case !

I managed to hack my way through that... you really need to sort out your gramar.

Oh, and the imp thing? I highly doubt that that imp is intented to be supernatural - surely there are 'fantasy' imp pictures better suited to your tastes?

 

[Aschenkatza]

War Penguin is the name of a website that I'm trying to make and it was the name of the main cartoon. It didn't come out great in the end but the name stuck.

Which one? Flying monkeys tole it. Damn them. But thank you. I would say the say same but I have no clue what a librarygasm is. I have a sneaking suspicion that it involves libraries.
