Mine outta be easy. Let's see, I'm a July baby which makes me a cancerian. I was born in '86, the year of the tiger according to the Chinese zodiac :^.^:.

This is going to sound strange...but when I first saw your username I thought "Cancerian" had to do with the disease cancer XD

^ Actually that had been my first thought in the beginning too though I have the "excuse" of being no native speaker

If I would go by my zodiacs I would be a "librarian rat". Librarian (if the word even exists with reference to the zodia Libra; which I doubt) would also be an ambiguous word, but I would really like that double meaning.

Honestly, the first time I glanced at the username "Cancerian Tiger" I really did think it said "Cancerous Tiger" and I was like WTF? I had to be sure what I was reading and of course it didn't say that, much to my relief. I must say that username would be a little.......odd.

Two deleted replies in a row? What are you telling us Rat_Lady?

There was a comment you made that made me mad.

I was just never able to express it properly, it was that, "I have an excuse being a non-native speaker" comment.

Yes, I know it sounds dumb talking about this when it happened just right when I came here, but still, that comment just really made me go; <_< WTH?

Malte279 · **Reply #88 on:** September 17, 2008, 12:23:04 PM

It was meant to be a little joke (therefore the laughing dinosaur). "Cancerian" is of course not a word a non native speaker is likely to be confronted with and though I may have heard it before the zodiac meaning did not sink in until now. I apologize if that comment came across as patronizing. It wasn't meant to. I thought it to be a joke at my own expense.

Vaan360 · **Reply #89 on:** September 17, 2008, 01:48:37 PM

The name Vaan, its from FF XII, one of my favourite games and Caracthers.
And the 360, is just the combination of numbers I like to use

Apology excepted.

The name Aves (pronounced Aevs) was created by a friend who was contributing a character to one of my stories back in high school

I later adopted the name for my fox character, hense the name Aves the Fox (though the characters full name was/is Aves Willis Longfeather)

Didn't sound patronizing to me.

Sorry if there was any confusion caused by my screen name :unsure:. I know it's a bit...odd, but I felt my screen name should be something that describes me personally. Actually, I was going to go with Cera's name, but since a banned member had used that name, it could not be used again and I would not want to be mistaken for a previously banned member

. Yeah, I know mine's a bit complicated but I'm glad the confusion is gone B).

That would be odd. Such a screen name would make me appear to be one who like to plant viruses in computers or something

:. Heck, I do not know how to plant a virus to save my hide

That brings up a good point. Character names are popular username choices, and when a user is banned and obviously not coming back, could the username come back as an option. The same has happened with Ducky.

I'm one of those!

I thought of mine after I had left an online gaming community I had been apart of for some years. I suppose I didn't have anything special in mind about words "grunge" and "cat".

My parents thought of my username.

Alex, is that actually your real name?

Petrie. · **Reply #99 on:** July 06, 2009, 06:49:27 AM

More than likely it is.

I have one of those type accounts floating around here....the main board account. You can find it if you look for pre-2005 messages.
