UESP Forums

For some people, this is going to be really boring, but I'm sure some of us have interesting stories. Mine is somewhat interesting.

Moeboid is a game that some friends and I used to play in high school. For some reason we were fascinated by amoebas, so we searched around for games involving them. So Moeboid is one of the games that we found. In Moeboid, you play as an amoeba and your goal is simply to get points by eating other smaller amoebas while avoiding the bigger ones. Anyway, one day a friend made a fairly impressive high score and challenged me to beat it. After a couple of days of trying, I managed to fluke some insane score - triple the one that he challenged me to beat. Wanting to constantly remind him of the fact that I smashed his score, I adopted it as my internet name. At the time I thought that it wouldn't be taken anywhere, but turns out it is on some websites. The deviantart "Moeboid" is not me, for example.

From Oblivion. I intended to use "Nenalata" originally but made a major balls of the registering process by accidentaly implying I was 12. So I settled for this rip-off and feminine-sounding username.

well, i got this Hat right...

If there is a Hat of Madness in Skyrim, I want royalties.

This actually came from the Runescape name generator. I tried entering "videogamer" something, but it didn't like that, so I tried removing one letter. Then it gave five choices of numbers to add on to the end, and this was one. I did not pick this one because of pi, however.

My one comes from the album Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear. Caz shortened it. *cue hipster dance*

My other internet obsession is classic neohoming on neopets.com. I have two accounts there apocrypha_rose and apocryphamoon and I would switch back and forth between the two constantly while chatting on the neohome forums. Since everyone there was too lazy (and I dont blame them) to type out my whole user name some would call me moon when I was on my apocryphamoon account and some would call me rose when I was on my rose account. Well that quickly got too confusing so someone came up with the nickname moonrose and it has stuck ever since. I actually met one of the ladies from that forum IRL and she was like "I know your real name is Roxi but I cant help but call you moonrose, thats just your name to me"

Blackfire came up when I was still playing runescape. They finally allowed username changes, and after about 5 unfitting ones, I finally came up with BlackFire

No one likes calling themselves a goofball, so I don't have to have any numbers in my name!

If you ever see someone named iamgoofball on an online game(Playstation Network, for example.), it is probably me.

Thinking of getting a PS3

Xbox membership price is ridiculous

EDIT:

Let me rephrase thar

Paying to use xbox online is ridiculous. Im paying for wifi, I should get free live!

Wait for a while. Some hackers broke the PSN worldwide.

anonymous = trolololol

Topic, you fools.

No, it was not Anonymous.

So, Arvon, where did your nickname come from?

Avron.

Well, my username everywhere else is actually "NoSoundComes," after a poem by my favorite poet, but I figured that the UESP deserved a TES-themed one. "Avron" was the name of a character I devised up in my overactive imagination when trying to come up with a backstory for my Champion of Cyrodiil in Oblivion, although Avron actually ended up getting a story of his own because I like Morrowind more. In the story he's actually teased and called "Avron the S'wit" - and his friend is called "Valis the N'wah" - and I said to myself, "Self, that is catchy."

Besides, I love how you waltz around Vvardenfell and people call you "s'wit" and "n'wah" all the time. It's lovely, that warm Dunmer hospitality, isn't it?

It took days of meditation and focus to come up with this one.

Either that, or you could of heard some kids playing Marco Polo.......

That's good Avron, that you did that. A name is better than a title on forums.

Playing Marco Polo? I don't understand

You've never heard of that game before?

Nope.
