Meaning of user name? - Page 4

Hey all

Well my name's Natalie and Tats is a short version of it, which was already taken. Tatsu is japanese for dragon and kinda sounds like my name but that also was already taken! the suffix jin means master in japanese so tatsujin means dragon master - which is quite nice as i do kung fu ^_~

This should make your day. I am 4ft 9. I used to be here under the name SillyShorty but lost my password so, the new name which tells how I feel about chooclate.

My forum name comes from Tolkien. Stormcrow is another name for Gandalf the grey/white. (You hear it in the second Lord of the Rings movie, when Gandalf meets Samuron)
Guess I just used the name cause I had been to Lord of the Rings 2 a few days before. Wouldn't mind changing my forum name to Dan though.

Dan.

Mine originally comes from the programming languages arena. "==" stands for "equal in all respects", followed by the first three letters of my name.

When used on this forum, however, I like to interpret it as an indicator of speed, like a dust-trail maybe? Stretching the idea a bit more, "==" can be read as "Fast". With that in mind, the log-in becomes Fast Mal.

If you notice this forum doesn't contains any old posts that is 1 month ago.... so anything a month ago will be gone.

No, not gone, just hidden... Edwin doesn't do much pruning.

Which threads you see depends on the pulldown menu at the bottom of the page; leave it on the default of "last 30 days" and you will only see the last month's posts, but you can also set it to longer periods including "last year" and "the beginning".

"What do you want?"
"We want information.... information...."

Sorta the ultimate in anonymity

Number 6 is the hero of a 1960s British mini-series called "The Prisoner", created by and starring Patrick McGoohan. I was a big fan of this show when I was in college. Very cool show. Will give you a lot to think about.

I recognized it the first minute I saw you username!

It was a really one of the best TV series!

"I am number 2!"
"Who is number 1?"
You are number 6!"

Gatton · 26 Jun 2003, 04:39 PM

I use Gatton because it's the surname of my favorite guitar player Danny Gatton.

When I was first on the net I used Dinsdale on IRC and in other places. I'll let folks guess where I got the name from but I don't think it will take long for someone to get it.

Did you by chance get it from Tim Dinsdale? (Nessie Hunter)

Hey, I'm in between you two at 4'10", unless gravity gets its way when I get older. I love chocolate, too!

I've got so many aliases I have to keep track of them on a spreadsheet.
