What is with all of the Star Wars user names? I must be missing something.

Paco500 · Mar 30, 2006, 05:37 PM

Yep. You are.

::maroma:: · Mar 30, 2006, 05:40 PM

He likes Star Wars.

Er wait.. maybe he doesn't like Star Wars.

Or maybe he's just indifferent to Star Wars.

No one can really tell with that guy.

Obi Wan's Ghost · Mar 30, 2006, 05:43 PM

It is not me because he is gay. :kiss:

Rumor · Mar 30, 2006, 05:56 PM

Because it's cool.

Ghoser777 · Mar 30, 2006, 06:09 PM

I'm tempted to make nick's of Transformers...

eldt · Mar 30, 2006, 06:45 PM

No clue of what you are talking about.

Actually I have explained my stance on Star Wars more than once so it isn't a mystery.

Can we get a sticky for this, for Pete's sakes

When one gets banned he makes another.

It seems more like when he gets bored he makes another. I've seen something like three or four in the same thread, from Leia's bun to Luke's hand, to that rude Yoda nick. SWF has quite the repertoir.

Kevin · Mar 30, 2006, 08:46 PM

You could indeed be right. I've seen a few with lock icons. I just assume that is why he does it. But I could indeed be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.

IIRC, he uses different nicks on different computers. Because of the cookies, he just gets logged in with different nicks depending what computer he uses.

I haven't seen any SWF nick locked yet

Because they aren't used anymore.

I surely hope you aren't trying to say you have never had an account banned.

That would be lying.

If not, disregard.

starman · Mar 30, 2006, 10:43 PM

One or two have been banned.

Sure was, I think in 2002.

I like SWG's website, bitflydesign.

Jan Van Boghout · Mar 31, 2006, 05:49 AM

So is Dark Helmet SWG too?

That is when your accounts were perm banned. You've been banned since then. But only temp.

Sure is. You can usually tell because the sig will link to my website.

davesimondotcom · Mar 31, 2006, 08:59 AM

I really enjoy the SWG nicknames. I think they are very creative and fun.

Well thanks, the only reason I do them is to be entertaining as this place can be so competitive. Star Wars for the most part sucks, that is why the sigs make fun of it.

And entertaining it is... satire is always well appreciated.

Is Transformers really something that should be made fun of though!?

Dakar · Mar 31, 2006, 09:34 AM

I'd think it'd be more of homage, and it'd be funnier if like 5 of use made alt accounts with character names (& sigs).

You posted so much dumb sh!t under this nick that I thought this has got to be somebody else. Maybe the influence of the helmet

My old turtle nick was only temp banned. Why do you think I'm still here ?

rambo47 · Mar 31, 2006, 11:01 AM

Is this what you meant?

Episode I: The Phantom Menace
Episode II: Attack of the Clones
Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
Episode IV: A New Hope
Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Episode VI: Return of the Jedi

Or are you looking for JediMaker?

Because you got a new user name

Dakar · Mar 31, 2006, 11:23 AM

He retired his old nick willingly. He made a thread about it.

davesimondotcom · Mar 31, 2006, 11:27 AM

So how many fake SWG names have been made, SWG? By fake, I mean other members creating names in homage to your style?

turtle777 · Mar 31, 2006, 11:52 AM

Nope, you didn't follow the events.

I retired the turtle nick because I hit 7,777 posts.
It's still active, I'm just not using it.

Edit: Dakar got it right.

prob 5 or so. They were really disappointing because they were just obvious sexual references with little creativity or connection to the movies.

Corpse of Chewbacca is one of them. Not sexual, just not me.

Do you have a list of all of your Star Wars names somewhere?

Corpse of Chewbacca · Mar 31, 2006, 02:05 PM

Please, sir, explain what you mean!!!!!1111!!!!

I didn't know he was pregnant to begin with.

I've made a list a few times, Perhaps I'll make a new one and it will become a sticky

Yeah, you are a legend, you deserve a sticky.

Then everyone else should make their own SWG parody name in homage.

Dakar · Mar 31, 2006, 02:26 PM

I might have to reserve mine now

My problem with that is I don't want to confuse the matter anymore. I really don't want some star wars copy saying something and someone thinking it was me.

Hence this is why corpse of chewbacca put a disclaimer in his sig.

rambo47 · Apr 1, 2006, 11:14 AM

Wow, I didnt' read the original post carefully and the whole point went whooshing over my head at somethng like mach 3. Two days later the sound caught up with the original idea and I get it.
