MODERATORS
Because it's mine and it was available.
Autocorrect kinda fudged mine up and I said go it.
It's a variation on what my wife calls me. It's been my username on forums and such for a long time.
It's a reference to age of empires 2. My favorite game during my childhood.
Why?
Because one was required.
When?
2001, heading to Assembly '01, a large LAN event in Helsinki.
Or was it '02?
Someone once told me "pick two words and a number"
I did
Been using this user name since I made a PSN account when I was 12 lol
I was trying to figure out a username for another social media, and landed on this one after trying weird combinations of my name and birth year, none of which I like. Afterwards, it just stuck around because I became my life motto for many things as well.
I used this name for a specific purpose, then that purpose became irrelevant. With the API fubar, I ditched both of my profile names though this does bone one purpose of one of the old aliases (for my NSFW work) so I may end up bringing it back in some form. I like this name better though.
Wanted something not related to my other usernames and I fucking love gyozas
I just used the name I use on Discord and a few others places.
It was originally Toothless_NEO and still is on Reddit, Steam, and for some reason matrix but I changed it everywhere else I could because an asshole was harassing me and encouraging other people to harass me (had to actually pay money to change it in some places, Xbox live makes you pay to change your username).
Used to play a lot of games, some sci-fi, some fantasy... was lazy and didn't like having to come up with multiple names. It just kinda stuck.
I love tea
It's a reference to Buell Motorcycles and their tractor like engines.
I actually forgot why
A Tek chip was the delivery mechanism for the VR drugs from the William Shatner authored TekWar books.
Controversial
It's like shootin' the breeze, but old time sailor-y.
No one ever has had the user in anything I participate in
Wind... fire... All that kind of thing.
I'm anxious. And a furry. OwO (but shyly)
I was an emotional teenager who thought "life was too chaotic". I've grown fond of the name over the years, so I still use it to this day.
i saw it somewhere, and i liked the name. it's simple and good and i use it everywhere even though i'm a male
