Hi guys :wave:
Mine has a bit of a story to it...way, way back in the year 2000, my mom finally, allowed me to have an AOL screenname under her account. I spent a couple of days thinking of nicknames, before I saw her Yahoo! address: atsf_rr. She had chosen it because her grandfather, my great-grandfather, worked for the AT&SF railroad. So I took the name, cut out the underscore, and added 2000 to the end because it was the year 2000. Thus, I became known as atsfrr2000.
Well, before long, we moved from AOL to other internet services, and eventually back to AOL. Anyone who knows AOL knows that they don't let you resume your old account name (or at least, they didn't then) so you have to choose a new one. My solution was simple: replace the 2000 with a 3000. Problem solved, and I became known as atsfrr3000. I've used this nickname for about 6 years now.
I do run by some other names, including BigBoy_4000UP (or something to that effect, I haven't used it in forever), atsfrr4000 for any "clone" e-mail accounts I make on the odd occasion that I need one, and a few others. Lately, I've signed up in an MMORPG that did not allow numerical characters in usernames, so rather than make it atsfrr, I came up with a new one, based on my High School's mascot and primary color: Maroonhawk. This nickname has stuck with me for a while now and I'm finding myself signing up for more and more forums using this nick, and will probably switch to it as my main nick before long.
So there you have it
First post here in a long time, hope I made it worthwhile
