It has to be the actual text name that made the impression, not all the avatar/sig bells and whistles....

ok I will start:

Lampton Worm

I dunno why, I just find myself always having that name in my mind - I guess I am as fried as they all say. Anyway, what's yours, if any?

Ditto, I remember the names because I know who they are, not because of what the names are.

Raven

I dunno, it's just that I was playing a lot of Armored Core 3 when I began visiting the forums more often. Oh, and Raven's the name of my fav character in Zoids (t3h berzerk furii ownagez jooz!). And it's my fav poem (by Edgar Allan Poe). And I used to think he was the one who wrote the DB game "Raven," and the sequel (till I found out who the real author was).

I find it kind of cute that there is RobK and IanM and they have similar avatars and they are both mods and....

TCA should change his name to Forname/Surname Initial like IanM & RobK then they could all have a 3-musketeer aviator or a power-puff-girl aviator or a 3-stoog aviator or something.

Screen name + avatar combinations generally stick into my head for access to memory indeces whenever I encounter that combo again. Off the top of my head, though? TCA, DivW, Exeat, DrakeX, CattleRustler, IanM, RobK, Lee Bamber, David T, Shock, Adr, Mr X, Hexgear, FPSguy, CMC 101...

What, nobody remembers my freaky baby avatar?

I really hate when somebody new comes along and uses the same avatar as a regular here, and then I mistake the two because often I just refer to the avatar and not the name. *pounds fist against wall*

EDIT: I guess it is a little blurry, here's a better look: http://jeku.com/img/retro-small.jpg

dark coder - no offense but your name doesn't really stick out how many people are there with names that start with "dark" here? and "coder"? gotta spice it up a little

2_bits_short_of_a_byte. he was on the DB forums a looong time ago, and i've never forgotten it. it's such a great nerdy insult

magellan. to me, that name is synonymous with the DB forums, as he was very active when i first started using DB. nice to see he has returned

indi. just, indi.

mop, cause it's the best forum name ever tho now he's Binary Moon.

Exeat.

a) can't figure out what it means (and too lazy to try looking it up)
b) is it pronounced "ex eat" or "ex-e-at"?

Ha! Only 1 compared to my 4! I feel honoured to have a name that makes such an impression on people

In response to the prenounciation and the meaning:

Quote: "Exeat

\Ex"e*at\, n. [L., let him go forth.] 1. A license for absence from a college or a religious house."


It says there that it's prenounced ex-e-at but personally I actually prenounce it ex-eat. Then again, I guess it's not really that nescessary as we're typing it and not saying it.


Quote: "lol, i appear to be the least memorable person on this forum"
