If y'all remember the earlier forum I was just "kempis". Any theology fans here would know that Thomas á Kempis wrote a small book call "On the Imitation of Christ", in which the first half is a guide on how to live your life. Even though I'm no longer a Christian, I was astounded to find I agreed with everything the guy recommeded, and it took me weeks to read a little 30-page copy of it (it is highly-concentrated philosophy, absolutely no fluff). And then I was FLOORED by the fact it was written 600 YEARS ago! So, in honor of him (who I consider my spiritual master) I named myself him. Plus it's weird enough to not be already taken.
An older handle from long ago was "curious" and/or "curious_eyes", since I always want to know "why?". Curious Kempis reminds me of "Curious George", but Kempis Curious has a nice sounds to it, like it's Latin or something. -k curious |

[QUOTE=Dark Zero]I guess he must think that "twelveinchsoft" is the ONLY UNIQUE name on the net. Very poetic post BTW........*rolls eyes*, I think you need a life.
QUOTE] poetic? whatever you say man. these a.k.a.s Jmatthew101 Captain Awesome justinfingerlake are handles on another board... that i used to participate on. twelveinchsoft was my nick on that board. twelveinchsoft is my nick in real life. do you understand why i would be somewhat annoyed that somebody would claim to be me. much less why? twelveinchsoft is not one of his a.k.a's. darkzero ravenschild. im thinkin a bunch of crows are called a murder. is it because you born from violence crows are quite intelligent animals so it might be something to do with your smarts. |

Dude thats the thing, if he's trying to be you thats something. But I don't see how having the same nick is anything. I know HUNDREDS of dark zero's on the net, but that don't mean they trying to be me in anyway. Unless he did something that he down right copying you, then I understand you. But its the internet, its bound to happen.
BTW, whats wrong with your 'enter' key? |

mmmm i think the thread is becoming spammed! Don't go off topic if u dont want this thread to be closed. Poor RavenChild , he/she wants his/her nickname to be guessed so lets guess!! Well you guess cuz i don't want to
and here's the story of my nickname : One day... actually one night...I was playing Unreal Tournament 2K3 with my friends. I had the idea of naming myself Shadow_Human as I chose a human as a charcter. Days after, I chose a robot as a character instead of a human so I called myself Shadow_Robot but it dosen't sound cool . Then Shadow X came to life because X is my favorite letter (don't ask me why maybe cuz it sounds nice) . Shadow X was already taking so I added 114 -> 11 April(4) -< date of b-day off-topic : As Dark Zero said to twelveinchsoft (the rapper wanna-be?) , every1 could have the same nickname as you. An exemple...me! I created my nickname but it seems that also a lot of people has the same nickname because I usually register myself as ShadowX114 instead of ShadowX because it has already been taking. So I wonder how old are you twelveinchsoft , being talking about something stupid like that (im not saying your stupid but shessh...what "poems" or wtv u wanna call it, you got there??!!!! ) **EDIT** ok you posted a topic after Dark Zero's while i was writing this one and you yet, u did another bla bla. Stop man cuz its really spamming, useless and BS. |
