I've been following and posting on the What does your avatar tell us about you??? thread, and it got me thinking about User Names. While avatars can be changed, and often are from time to time (I change mine daily! I have 13 of them and rotate through them.), User Names are not. It is the one thing that you can never change once you become a member of ATS. Some are simply the name of the member, or their nicknames, and some are down right cryptic! Some describe a member's political views, veterans status or conspiracy interest. So, what does your User Name tell us about you?

Mine is not so cryptic. I used to be a radio DJ, and my given name just didn't sound very radio like. After some thought, I used my first and last initials, and added an 's' to my middle name; J. T. Roberts. Many years later (I won't say how many, but when I was a DJ, Joan Jett's I Love Rock 'n Roll was in the top 40), when I got my first computer and went online, I expanded the 'J' to Jaxon (always loved the spelling, and it's not my first name, so still gave me complete anonimity) and dropped the 'T', thus giving me Jaxon Roberts as my 'online' identity. It's been that way ever since, so it was a 'no brainer' when I was prompted for a User Name when I joined ATS last year.

The following is my opinion as a member participating in this discussion.


well I think mine is simple enough, I'm the ruler of middle earth

But in reality I'm just a really mean person



As an ATS Staff Member, I will not moderate in threads such as this where I have participated as a member.

Mine comes from way back during the Bay Area Apple BBS days. Basically, 'cyberpunk' wasn't coined yet, and didn't occur to me. So I started using 'spacepunk', and have used it ever since. Sometimes imitated, never duplicated. Basically, it's my old 'hacker' name. (yes, if you have an apple // type computer, boot off an old 5.25 inch floppy, and see a flashing 'cracked by SpacePunk' with a skull and bones.... that's me years ago (it was done as a fluke, but things get around)).

Breathmint?



As for me, I'm obviously a system of two or more objects in which the quantum states of the constituting objects are linked together so that one object can no longer be adequately described without full mention of its counterpart.

Yeah but going by your avatar, what you lack in social graces you make up by being sooo pretty!

One of the many faces of Suaron?
