Everyone has a username and a lot of the time, there is usually a story behind the username. I thought it would be nice for people to share the story behind their usernames.

Mine is Shortie and I got that back when I was in school due to me being short, many of my friends used to say I was cute as well, and due to that, they would call me Shortie for short and cute.

Mine is just my name. I used to go by Maroon Caludin till just a few years ago. That’s just the name of one of my characters.
 
I love Star Wars.
 
Dragon Ball Super, and even just the name of a plant. :P
 
Ah I see! That's also where the name of your website came from?
Yep! I think I originally came up with that sites name not long after I came up with the name. Which was a loooong time ago.

Just a friendly suggestion, as lovely as I think that name is, I suspect the site would get way more views if you were to use a more descriptive site name :)

That could be, but I don’t see me changing it. I’ve had that domain since I was a teenager, and am kinda attached to it.

Aw, so that site's been going for a long time?
I guess one benefit is only your friends would really join, to help out and stuff like that. And that leads to the formation of a nice community of real, genuine friends rather than a bunch of strangers/acquaintances you barely know <3

Honestly I’ve had non-friends join which I did end up getting friendly with.

Regardless this isn’t really about my site. Just our names. ;)

That's great to hear. Nice way to make some new buddies :)

You can brag a bit, c'mon :D
On a serious note Kale is there a rule about off-topic posts and derailing threads?
I can have a tendency to thread-bomb when i'm hyper :p
 
Ha yeah I didn’t want to completely move it off topic.
