Just curious. I was asked about mine, and I've wondered about others'.
Tip DS: It's really stupid, but... I used to play alot of D&D; (No, I'm not insane & I'm not a satan worshiper) My name was given to me, because I had a character that was especially good with thwarting dragons. More often than others, my character would (S)lay the (D)ragon. Since my character was especially good at (D)ragon (S)laying, he was normally put in front when the need to fight a dragon came up. One could say my character was the "Tip" of the spear. Thus, Tip the Dragon Slayer. That was kinda long, so it got shortened to Tip DS, where DS was more like a last name. I got called "Tip" alot, and the DS was just for signatures.
Now, if I could just get out of this white jacket,
Tip DS

Telyx was my D&D; character from 1986-88 (cleric-assassin-- nothing like job security). Now I hear there's a character in Everquest named Baron Telyx V'Zher. Argh!

Mine comes from an age-old search for an AOL screen name. I tried my initials and when that didn't work, I started adding numbers to it. When I finally found a combination that worked, I had saw9000. The user name has been mine almost everywhere I frequent ever since.

OK. Since everyone has their own nickname, I'm thinking of having one also. Hey, I'm entitled to having one, am I not?
Initially, I'm thinking of having PieVee. Not much explaning but notice it's somehow similar to Sijpie's. LOL! .
Any suggestions on my nick? The one that I choose to be my nick will get a lobster. Promise...

Lobster's better than crabs. Anyhow, I think you should use something to suit your avatar. DarkMan, ShadowMan, DarkShadow, or something sinister like that. BTW, avatar's cool.

How about
Everybody Loves Admin
This might be understood only by the Americans in the crowd, but it's a play on the American TV show Everybody Loves Raymond, and somewhat of a play on your name.
Also, how about
Admin - Mod tested, user approved

Actually, with "Mod tested, user approved," I was going for a reference back to the Kix cereal ads of long ago.
BatAdmin
The Dark Admin (Be sure to keep the avatar for both of these, so people don't get the wrong idea )
