My name is supposed to be like hillbilly, but my parents think hillbilly is too derogatory so my friend suggested billyfromhill to circumvent them.

Its one of my IRL nicknames. I sign my posts with the original version of said nickname since very few can pronounce my username right and because forum software hates less than 4 character usernames. /shakes fist/ My username was going to be Fus, but nooo, it had to be more than 4 characters.... ~Fus

Delirious - first used when MIRC came out. It's how I felt after years and years of late night studying while seeking higher education.

Raver- Pretty self explanatory. I was into raving pretty hardcore back in the day (98-2003ish). It's been my gamertag since UT and my forum name on almost every forum I've been a part of.

all my friends online know me as "Nite" which is just short for Nitemares (which is the name of a Monster Truck as well) which is how I decided on it originally. It also fits in with my habits of staying up late at Night too

My name is an intentional misspelling of "Righteous". Not sure why I picked it. People always pronounce it "Re Chess" or "Rich ess" though, when it's supposed to be pronounced exactly like "Righteous".

Mine is not as creative or imaginative as the rest of you, It's just middle initial, last name and street #, I didn't think I could remember a dozen different screen names and passwords,+ banking and credit card passwords, + 3 more for work, that have to be changed monthly, and not have a break down. So I picked something safe and simple, if I forget my name and address, then I have bigger things to worry about, then signing onto EVGA

I got this nickname while writing software for the military as a contractor. I kept "banker hours" in that I came into the facility at 10AM and left at 3PM or 4PM, whereas most of the other team members were there early and stayed late. So my friends started calling me bankerboy. I like the connotation, so I still use it.

Should be self explanatory. I've used this name online since...I dunno...a long time ago. Just a play on FreeBSD really. Nothing special.

Garnet and Black are my two favorite colors - they also happen to be the colors of my favorite team and alma mater.
