But what did such a Teuton afterwards look like when he had been "improved" and led into a monastery? Like a caricature of a human being, like an abortion: he had become a "sinner," he was in a cage, one had imprisoned him behind nothing but sheer terrifying concepts... There he lay now, sick, miserable, filled with ill-will towards himself; full of hatred for the impulses toward life, full of suspicion of all that was still strong and happy. In short, a "Christian"... - Twighlight of the Idols

when i was looking for a boyscout troop to join when i was like 10, one troop i was demoing played a game halfway through each meeting (half pre-teens, can't focus for a full hour :P) anyway so the game we played was to get to know eachother. you said your name, then an item you were bringing to an imaginary picnic; the item's first letter had to match the first letter of your name, then repeat what everyone before you said. it came around to this one kid, ryan, who was hyperactive type ADHD, and always had a bag of skittles with him... on his turn he said "my name is ryan and i'm bringing ...r...r ra radioactive potatoes."

from that day on i saw potatoes as the ultimate inspiration for all things. thus my rsn just HAD to have the word potato in it. (my first email was psychopotato63 :P )

next i needed something good to flow with it. i wanted something dark, powerful, evil, chaotic, etc. originally i wanted chaoticpsycho (my online name at the time) but it was 1 letter too long and i refuse to misspell in a username. after settling on potato as part 1, part 2 just hit like a brick. reaper. a harvester of souls, what better option?

potatoreaper i would be.

later i would develop the following names:

spud chaotic, obvious inspirations, defense pure, done the hard way. fail soul wars pures fail

i am ienzo, based on xezion, a dark illusionist of organization XIII, mage pure

potato12088, obvious inspirations, skiller pure, abandoned

mithril door, made him just to troll the forums back when everyone wanted to know what was there, succeed in getting people to make almost every other door name in the game, two got members to post on the forums with me XD (example, adamant door, bronze door, runite door) probably my most successful troll ever, but cost me 5 bucks. eventually became my official alternate character.

ibans flesh, based off iban the dark mage of underground pass quest, a mage pure to replace the failure that was ienzo. one of several pieces used to bind iban to this plane: blood, bone, flesh, and shadow

sirstrudel99, character i inherited from a friend. she inherrited it from another friend, probably its 5th owner or something. i had no say in its name :D


only 6 accounts... i'm sure i had like 9 before, i'll have to check on that X)

oh yeah, p reaper 2, old bank storage char. obvious origins

i recall some other char being my original alt char, another potato based one, whatever.

Well...really simple version. My brother had been talking about football a lot one time ago. He started talking about "juking" a lot (it's like pulling a move that tricks the person into thinking your going to move one way, when really you are going to move the other way). So I thought I was all that (long time ago, though) and thought that "juking" was cool. As for the duke part, duke is like a position of nobility and as being special. I wanted to be Duke Juker, not just Juker or The Juker. So that's how my name came about. I am Duke Juker.

Well, I had one account named "Steven Wein", which I'm sure only few people would know what Wein means in that name. I was an idiot then, and a random guy said "Hey, I'm giving away free members, just give me your pass". I did, and about five minutes later, I tried to log in and it was not working.

I then made a new account, put "Steven Kill" in the name box, and it was taken, so I just hit the nearest one. I want to get it changed so badly. I hate it.

My account had just been permanently banned (for reasons I don't know), and one of my friends happened to have a spare account in the exact combat level mine had been. So I just took over. I wasn't too exited about the 13 making B, but I've come to live with it.

I have used Zackmaster13 for many other websites. As for BunnyMacaroni, that is still top secret as to how I came up with it.

I got my usernames from a collection of videos involving clay people. One character from the series' name was Doctor Bob. He was my favorite.

I created an account on the forums for Knox's Korner (The website for the videos) and named my account "dohkter bohb" to sound original. This was back in 2004, by the way.

So I joined RuneScape. It was a few years after Knox's Korner, and I forgot how to spell my old username, so I spelled it differently. The outcome was "Dokter Bob."

The end.

It's interesting to know what the numbers in peoples names mean, I thought it was just completely random.

I have no idea why this is my RuneScape name.. I've been called Andrew my whole life so yeah..

and my old account, Robvandam23, made around the same time as Callmeandy, was named after the wrestler, I choose to work on Callmeandy more because I don't like wrestling anymore.

I believe my reasoning was because it looked "cool" or "edgy". Lol, its funny to think about it now, but yeah no real meaning or context behind mine. Created this character in 99 or 2000 probably so I was mesmerized by names that looked original and cool. Now I realize the spaces and the word itself wasn't original or very cool :D Oh well!

Pretty impressive to create a character before the game was made (2001).
