Story behind your username?

I have no idea what was the inspiration for the username I have so while it might not have a story as to how it came to be but it does tell a story woven across many boards over many years through the many encounters I had with the many people I met from all over the world.
 
It is a tale from the ancient times, told by many bards, passed over from generation to generation, eh? ;)

Have you ever gone by other usernames?

Only once and that was to hide my identity as the board in question was what they used to call a leaks board. A board where the people that board owners in hindsight shouldn't have hired post screenshots of staff rooms for whatever reason. I made an account there to keep an eye on the place and somehow found my way onto that board's staff team. lol I only took the position to gain access to IP addresses to make it harder to do it without me being able to see who is who.

That leaks board sounds familiar! So much drama in IF/ZB land back in the day. :lol:
 
I was Mama to my cat and 'Frankie' is partly tribute to my paternal grandfather Frank and partly tribute to the 'Prisoner Cell Block H' character 'Franky Doyle' portrayed by the late Carol Burns.

I was wondering why you're username had MaMa in it when you mentioned that you didn't have any children. Now it makes sense. :)
 
I played for an esports team 2018-2020 and I was known for getting the merciless kill streak in scrims and tournaments so my captain used to call me Merciless and it stuck.

Its a good name! I like it. :D
Real name no story o_O
Nice name!
@Nebulous had asked me what I'd name a pet unicorn, he loved my answer. He then said to change my username to that and I did 🦄.
I was joking, can't believe you did it! :lol:
 
I was joking
i dont like you lucille ball GIF
 
No story really with my current one. I just decided to go with my real name (was inspired by a blog I follow).

My old one was more interesting. I used to go by Maroon Caludin for a loooong time. Okay maybe not that interesting since it just was the name of one of my characters.

I remember Maroon Caludin. :)
 
I still don't remember why I picked Crys or what's behind it. It's not even remotely close to my real name....
