Ya Griselda - makes sense - their posts have had different "flavours" to me (hurt/ticked off vs. foul). I thought Occhi's initial response to SL was perhaps a touch harsh for someone not yet used to the Lounge. It's not like b.net chat or most other D2 forums would have prepared him for the concept of communicating in real adult human language. (But then as the resident softy, bleeding-heart, self-esteem-promoting, do-gooder idealist, I might not be objective about such things. Good Lord! I may have turned into the Anti-Pete! *cues music from "The Omen"* )
Still, that begs the question - why does this outwar seem to be stalking Occhi? I can only recall something like this happening a couple times way back when on the Lounge.
Pretending to be on-topic: KoP (KingOfPain) has a gift for choosing names that make me cock my head sideways and go "huh?" for a moment. But then what else could you expect of someone who has inspired a follower called the PrinceOfOuch (PoO)?
Back when we were playing the Friends of Sysiphus games, there were a variety of bad puns for names. My paladin was EddyFoS. If we could have finished before the expansion came out he would have been King EddyFoS - or as I preferred to think, EddyFoS Rex. Argh! It just reminded me how much I detest the titles for expansion characters. The titles in classic just seemed, well, classier to me.
On my own, the closest I get to clever is my necromancer "SummonAllFears".
