screenname- came about at another forum, My first name is Kim and I got a little crazy/chaotic so we mixed the two to get 'Kaos',I like anonymity these days online. I'm a behind the scenes type of webmaster :-)
Avatar, kind of looks like me, I don't put pictures of me or my family online because of privacy reasons too.
Maybe I'm a paranoid person LOL

Bobinski is a nickname I got from a funny co-worker in the car business. He found out I was about 10% Polish so the name stuck. "AK" is just something I added becasue it used to be my favorite hand in Hold'em. Now its pocket 4's.
My avatar is my websites logo. Its the ace of spades from a Modiano playing card with our sites name.

My nick is poppabill because several years ago a girl at i think Turning Stone Casino near Syracuse (she worked there) said i looked like her poppa and i told her my name was Bill. Every time i went there she was there and would say hey poppabill, others started calling me that and i guess it just stuck. I don't get out and about much no more so i have not been there in a long time but thats how i got the nick name "poppabill...be happy.:)

my screen name is an old geek thing. A friend saw a ridiculous hat I used to wear and said I looked like Yukon Jack at the time I was playing a few games online (anyone remember counter strike?). I used it as my sn and its stuck. In recent years it has become my forum name on damn near every paintball related site. My avatar is . . . crap I don't have one, but I've got a killer sig my co-captain designed for me.

A coworker used to call me Rebecca. When I advised her she didn't need to be so formal, and Becky was fine...she started calling me Rebecky. I liked it, and have used it as my screen name in several other websites.
My avatar....I love the moon. I am facinated by the moon cycles/phases and it's effects on everything. I liked the way this looked. It will change often, I'm sure.

Uh oh, forgot about my av. It's a picture of the Verrazano Bridge which is not too far from my house (1.8 miles). It connects Brooklyn with Staten Island, which is the least populated borough in NYC. Easily, the best looking bridge in the City of New York. :bowdown:

Not sure if it is available to everyone but go into the CP>edit details and look for customized titles. I know originally it was just for site sponsors, not sure if it is now though?

I used to be to able to get into customized titles but not anymore. :(

Supporting members have the option for customized titles. It is not default.
Some early members had them as a perk for awhile but that has expired.
(supporting members have either donated cash to the site or services)

Saturday, October 4th, 2008, 11:30 PM
A long time ago, a friend called me wawa....and webis is a nickname I gave someone...one day I needed to create a name for some website quickly and those were the only two names that came to mind. Then I got so used to them that I just use them even though I think they are silly, but hey, no one else seems to ever have it when I sign up for something!
When I picked the avatar, I had never made one before, I liked Theresa's and looked up fairies online and saw it. It fits the mood I am in when I "hang out" online.
