Zed Posted April 20, 2016 Pavera said:Pavera That's strange. I've heard the word pavera, meaning the big plate/dish where the turkey is served in Christmas/Thanksgiving. But I just found out it doesn't even appear in the rae.es]RAE's official dictionary. Weird. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jello Posted April 20, 2016 Because when I registered I was a Freshman in High School. I had found out about, and loved the Dead Kennedys for two years, and after five years of Quake I felt like going back to Doom and I found Doomworld. My username still strikes me as jackass, but I've grown attached to it. I still see my DK avatar I uploaded over 10 years ago being used. Even though for some reason it uploaded with the lower spike being crooked, it's still in the database. 0 Share this post Link to post
Varis Alpha Posted April 20, 2016 in the seas of "Doomhunters" that exist on pretty much any site now, i decided to change it up a bit with Doomhuntress, which surprisingly is a lot less used. i did use a doomhunter alias before that, but that's old. this alias is actually outdated too, kind of. i usually go by Viscra Maelstrom everywhere else, but if i changed it here, people would probably be angry at me for making myself unrecognizable. :P 0 Share this post Link to post

Good to have it confirmed! As for mine: history shit 0 Share this post Link to post

As for mine: history shit yeah, i'm one and the same. i try to keep myself familiar by only using avatars of my characters nowadays. i wonder if i should bridge the gap and ask to change my user here to Viscra Maelstrom too, though. i'd still use the same avatar, so maybe it'd work fine? 0 Share this post Link to post
plums Posted April 21, 2016 A lot of people that get name changes also get their old name in custom text. Or you could add it in a sig. So if you really want a username change you should go for it. Same goes to you, Chu! 0 Share this post Link to post

YukiHerz Posted April 22, 2016 Yuki means Snow (Japoonian). Herz means Heart (Yellman). Connect the dots. Do note that i don't speak either of the languages. 0 Share this post Link to post

DoomzRules Posted April 22, 2016 Mine is what it sounds like. Doom rules. I just added the z to make it all cute and cat-sounding. I wanted my username to sound like a cute cuddly adorable little kitty cat saying it. :3 What? I <3 cats and dogs equally. =3 Surprised? Doomguy's a softy too... just because I'm muscular and handsome like Doomguy doesn't mean I'm hard and cold inside. =P I'm pretty soft inside... even if I do listen to death metal and thrash metal on a somewhat regular basis. =P 0 Share this post Link to post

punnyone Posted April 23, 2016 An embarrassingly banal name that my younger self made up some 15 years ago. (Favorite food at the time, nickname at the time), lucky number). When I joined Doomworld in 2008, I made it my username because I figured it would be easy to remember. Now that I'm almost 30, it makes me both cringe and chuckle at just how silly it is, yet it's too late to really change it so I'm stuck with it. 0 Share this post Link to post

I have tried to request said username change to just Coraline (I use it everywhere else), but I never got a response. Maybe I contacted the wrong admin or something. Can someone help me do that or point me in the right direction? It'll smooth stuff over and connect the dots across various accounts/etc. 0 Share this post Link to post

BigDickBzzrak Posted March 16, 2017 Lots of folks changing their names recently, as the new software allows you to do that without bugging the mods. However, without the "Formerly X" titles, it's kinda hard to follow, who is who. So, if you change your username, you can post about it here and not have people scratch their heads. :] 1 Share this post Link to post
Devalaous Posted March 16, 2017 Changed mine from "Ragnor" to the username I use everywhere. In my infinite stupidity, when I registered on DW in 2008, I must have been very sleepy, because I signed up with my actual first name by mistake (for proof of my doofus mistake, look in the credits for Terraria on console or mobile >.>) Been annoyed with this mistake for ever since. Thats... a long time. Feels good to have it fixed. 0 Share this post Link to post
Avoozl Posted March 16, 2017 I see no reason to change mine anymore, I have been happy with it ever since it was changed from Doomsfall many (maybe 7) years ago. 0 Share this post Link to post
nxGangrel Posted March 16, 2017 I was thinking of changing mine into Gang Girl, but I don't see the point considering I go by Gangrel everywhere by default. 0 Share this post Link to post
NuMetalManiak Posted March 16, 2017 There's no real backstory behind this one. I just like this metal genre and I know about 125 bands in this genre. I've used it everywhere except Doom-related sites, including Twitter and some other site I'm basically a mod in. Also the k at the end is a homage to how some nu metal bands have intentional misspellings. 0 Share this post Link to post
Tracer Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) I'm debating on changing mine. I don't know if I actually want to, or if I just think I want to because I suddenly can. I used to be TraceOfSpades. I changed it because my username was getting wrapped. Fun fact, my late grandfather called me Tracer until the day he died. Fond memories. Plus, I am a gun and ammo enthusiast, and I always thought Tracer rounds were cool. Edited March 16, 2017 by Tracer 0 Share this post Link to post
