Well I explained this in the oler old thread but BoyEngland was as insult used on me by some kid in my US school. I didn't, and still can't, see any offense in it so here I am. I think the first time I used it was on BHD for PS2.

BravoEcho (PS3) was created by using the initials of BoyEngland (Unavailable) and the local Police helicopter (SierraYankee - 99) was over my house at the time so I got the phonetic idea from that. (Never told that story before)

Anyway, um... I was originally LiKuidFox, which I came up with a long time ago. I ran into some problems with AOL (which I originally created the name for), and wanted to find a new name with an animal. I found a picture of a linsang, and it looked pretty cool, so now I'm LiKuidLinsang.

Daa-yum, I can't believe I never hit this up.

Omega Supreme was my original Socom 2 name, after one of my favorite Transformers. Later I changed it to M!KE, which some will recall was my original name here, and Lib was kind enough to later change it for me.

Socom 3 came, and you couldn't use characters like ! in names, so I went with Omega Mike. Then I found my clanmates from Socom 2 in the most random manner, and they suggested I just go with Omega. Of course that was taken, so I substituted a 6 for the g.

It's actually come to be quite appropriate. The word omega means the end, or the last. I tend to be good at shooters, so I'm the end of many, and I usually end up being the last one standing, or my team's last line of defense because I play tactically.

My wife later brought it to my attention that the omega symbol (Ω) is sometimes used to represent my astrological sign, which is a libra. She thought that's why I chose that moniker, but I honestly never knew it.

i like the occult and "warlock" was generally considered to be a derogatory name for male practitioners of the various genres of magik so i decided to use it since i'm typically rather offensive. oh and it just sounds wicked cool! lol

Someone searched before they posted!!!!


Anyways good job on the search and I believe I already posted why but I made the name of Ptrpan for an AIM screen name in middle school.....wow long time ago....as a joke because it was the first time I had AIM and everyone thought it was funny and me being the class clown kept it. I actually hate the name thats why I modified it to Mr~Pan but people still relate it to Peter Pan. If I ever find an uber good name I'll change it.

Easton is the city I live in.

My Socom name Easton-assassin is because I'm the hitman in the city.

Phi11ies is my GT because I am the biggest phils fan.

My very first online name was from Socom 1. 002man, my older brother had Monne001.
So I just went with 002man...
Also was playing THUG online. (Best ever). I used the name Sk8er. After many great clans in that game my friends were telling me to get a more original name. So I remembered practicing on THUG and had a undercover name so no one would recognize me. It was System, my buddy said he liked that name.

Man, THUG were the days. I was actually top 10 in the points. I think you can max out at 2.3bill? Yea, no cheats or anything it took 5-6 hours to achieve that. But I came only too 2.1 bill. But aweseom none the less. Too bad they closed the servers to it. :( Anywho, continuing on.

So Socom 2 I had Sk8er (But different symbols or whatever) and was okay I guess.
Used it for the Socom 2 era before cheaters pooled in.

Runescape was the next thing. I used my THUG name System and put a hyphen and added killa to it. System-killa. After getting mrudered by Goblins and losing my 20gp and iron ful helm, I wanted to make a different name. System-sk8a.
System-sk8a was my main, one kick a$$ guy for me. But Runescape got bored and quit it. But I came back in the later months and found a very popular pker (I_mahatma_I) he was pure play killer. He was my Runescape idol (Nerdy, yes.) I tried I_system_I. But taken. So I went with I_enfeeble_I. One of my best low level pkers.

So now the story is coming to an end. Socom 3 I tried I_system_I and it worked. Stuck with that name for many forums and online games.

There are the stages I went through...

Peace. Out.

My original name on here was Uh8ME, just because that was my Socom 1 name.

Then it turned into UrNotHelping. That name came about when me and my dad were trying to figure out a new email address for me. I gave a bunch of random suggestion, he said "You're not helping" and it stuck.

Next came Irish Kin, which is self-explanatory for the most part.

Finally we have my PSN of BaiS_. Bais are 4 letters from my last name and the underscore is in there because it wouldn't let me just register Bais.
