Too many people are changing their freaking names.

Gosh, I was a big Babylon 5 fan when it was on TV, and I didn't pick up on the Kosh name. He was the Narn, right?

Nerd alert! woop woop!

My old nick was painful for me to read after awhile, this is more sexy and mysterious like I am in real life. Plus everyone can still tell who I am.

Yea, I think I know who you are...when not naming yourself after fish from the Darius series, you're also the president of the Sega Fan-Boyz club.

When I see Neon...I think of the car.
The Dodge Neon...ehh, nothing too sexy or mysterious about that!

OMG! I can't find my old Captain Murphy avatar. I-I'm having an identity crisis.

!!WARNING!! RANDOM AVATAR CHANGES APPROACHING

Ah, yes nothing like a good fight to get things going again. The old boards were so tame compared to the new ones. These have so much more bite. It must be the star field back ground.

Dylan's so totally lame compared to Kosh

Just wait till you discover his real last name!

Maybe he'll tell you...only if you promise not to laugh.

I hope he knows that we're just messing around...he's a "Mod-God" y'know. He could wipe us off the face of the eart...uhh, I mean Shmups forum with as little effort from his pinky finger...MAN, thats power baby!
In other words, don't heckle the hankel!!!

I always liked the site but the boards is where all the action was at - when they were up. So I decided to sign up finally.

Whoah, a Stone Roses fan! On behalf of Jon and I, welcome to the forum! I had a bit of Elephant Stone lyrics in my sig on the old forum for awhile...

Gah, you are so not nerds.

Kosh was a Vorlon, the Narn was G'Kar.

Cool

Raidenfighter Kirkov · Thu Jan 27, 2005 4:40 pm

HI !

RFK lives again (with a new avatar too

)

Greetings
RFK

I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk?

Post by **nZero** » Thu Jan 27, 2005 4:57 pm

Same ol' nZero-y me. I'll be going with a new avatar, though-- as soon as I can decide what!

CMoon · Post by **CMoon** » Sat Jan 29, 2005 12:50 pm

Yay to RFK's new avatar.

In the words of my old Donpachi mentor, 'KEEP IT UP!'

Minzoku · Post by **Minzoku** » Sat Jan 29, 2005 1:08 pm

I kept mine [avatar and name] the same because 1. I've gotten used to them, and 2. I'm lazy. I changed my sig, though, because I didn't feel like regurgitating the old one... instead I regurgitated an old one I used elsewhere

Neon, I recognize that avatar, and it's hilarious XD

Who are you?

What do you want?

Haha. B5 fans unite. Just so long as they don't get into a big epic war and start destroying entire threads with their "thread killer" fleet. :p

Grrr! *Gets into mutual old shmups codger mode and shakes his fist and cane* Anyways, it's a German name, it's bound to sound sort of goofy. haha

I dunno if it's so bad, I mean what's the worse it rhymes with...ankle?

And sorry, the Kosh name isn't coming back (Grant is one person who would be glad I got rid of it) I agree it was cool but I'm just done with it. I still love B5 but I want a more shooter themed name this time. When I chose the name I had just gotten dial up internet for the first time(although I'd already used dial up plenty in school on a myriad Macs, heh), had never participated on a gaming forum before and was obsessed with B5 at the time. So it was a different time, a diff Dylan.

And Kosh was a Vorlon. Ancient race of very powerful and very mysterious aliens. And I still haven't gotten any of the DVD sets. Bah. I should be ashamed. Just can't afford 'em though with the games I buy.

I will always be sethsez. I can't think of a (still existing) forum where I don't use this name.

Still Spec (Felt like trying my YM name, but sometimes it sounds goofy even to me). New Av, new sig to go along with the av. And still sucking at most shmups.
