The nickname was meant to be a name to a female char that I was meant to play in the Storytelling Game: Exalted... but the campaign never became a realisation. But put in a perspective one could say that the name really originates from my WoW Tauren female Druid on Argent Dawn, since it was there and then that the name became a "personal affection" (due to 5 years of gaming the char) and have since been my "Forum nickname".

Yarr! It was a fun character to game with since I loved the role as a healer and when the expansion came it got all got a new boost of fun due to its sudden versatility (dps & tank - or well, read offtank). So yea - Cherryleaf is and always will be a nickname which I dearly treasure (Cherrybloom next to that - but that is another story) ^_^

Once upon a time, a LONG LONG GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY... ahem...

Take Two...

ArkNorth and I (the name that is) have been together since 1985, when my sister and I wrote a series of scripts for the G1 Transformers series (the real things - not fan fiction - and before you ask, no, they never made it into production). I was the Ark North, since I lived north of Philadelphia, PA, while she was the Southern Command of the Ark, as she lived in Newark, DE at the time. And as any Transformers fans should know, the Ark was the name of the Autobot's starship that crashed on Earth. 'Nuff said! When I finally got online in 1997, ArkNorth was my first and ONLY name I've used since.

As for that guy puffing smoke at everyone from my Avatar, That's just good old TC (short for Transcharizard). Like my name, he's been with me now since 2000.

It is never bout how big the story is - no need for the fancy epic woobapaloobabediba show. Now we atleast know how and why, and that's what this is all about... and atleast it came with some sort of story, right?

Barrucadu · « **Reply #355 on:** June 28, 2010, 02:45:27 PM »

Back in the day (2000ish), my brother and I were avid BYOND users. I went my the imaginative name Mikor, being named Michael, and he tried to use "Barracuda", but spelled it wrong.

Being the imaginative, creative person that I am who never copies anything, I stole the name from him.

pipitugaboy · « **Reply #356 on:** July 06, 2010, 03:49:51 PM »

pipi used to be my nickname (LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOONG STORY)
But used it back in the old days so I made this...
Now finaly gotten rid of it (I really hate it now xD).
Wish I could change it, since I'm going through as Curapica now =P
But to bad u can't and I don't feel like whiping out my stats on BBT.

Rhodanum · « **Reply #357 on:** July 12, 2010, 08:07:12 PM »

I went through a few uninteresting variations of my real-life name before settling on this user-name almost three years ago. 'Rhodanum' is a Latin word and it is the Accusative form of the 'Rhodanus' noun -- which is the Latin name for the river Rhone.

I found while translating a fragment from Caesar's Comentarii de Bello Gallico (Commentaries on the Gallic War) for that week's Latin class, during which he spoke about the geography of what is modern-day France. The mention of the Rhone stuck with me simply because I liked its Latin name -- and on a whim I started using the Accusative form as my online handle shortly after the fact (I didn't go with the Nominative -- Rhodanus -- simply because the '-us' ending seemed rather over-used in names derived from Latin).

so you decided to use the latin name that some river has in somewhere in this world, well done!

VisionError · « **Reply #359 on:** July 15, 2010, 01:14:42 AM »

The First Anime I finished and the one that strangely enough started my addiction was Chaos;Head, and I remembered in the OP 2 words, (The only ones I could understand) were Vision Error. Considering I couldn't get the damn song out of my head for weeks "VisionError" kinda stuck, and I just sorta started using it as a screen name for stuff.
