Lets talk about names?
« on: December 03, 2015, 01:04:13 am »
What is the reason behind your handle? I ask this because I am the type of person who struggles to come up or stick with names I choose, not just for handle names, but program, company or any other task that requires a name to be picked. I am interested in to why some of you chose the names you picked, also are there any of you with the same problem where you find it hard to pick names for things and continuously question yourself "Could I have picked a better name?".

My handle Katheudo is linked with sleep, the Greek word for sleeping. Random I know, but who does not like sleeping huh?   ;D
Its nice to be important but always important to be nice!

Fair enough, thanks for the reply. Also probably not the best idea to use an iPhone and a third party app to post on a hacking forum ;) Some people will not like the "Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk" at the end of your posts.

Funny i was going to start this thread afew days ago, thought about it when in bed looking for sleep.
Also, it is ok to use Tapatalk as it is the community that integrated it for use here, probably not a good idea to Leave that "Posted with Tapatalk on my phone <version-here>, but we are moving to platforms with APIs so rolling our own mobile APP won't be that difficult.
If you can't explain it to a 6 year old, you don't understand it yourself.

Kurajber (pronounced kʊrəyber) is an old word in my language that means great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather. Yes, that's 12 "greats" before grandfather.

I don't know why I began using this name, but I've been using it for a while. I only use it on forums, and I have a completely different handle for online gaming.

For gaming I use the handle Kitarei, which I got from a combination of Atari and Kitana.

Here is a visual representation of how I created my gamer tag:

I used to make bombs for a local gang when I was younger and they used to call me tech. I went by techbomb or techbombanonymous on other sites,  but shortened it to techb. Proper spelling is Tech B. , but meh.

iTpHo3NiX pronounced i-t phoenix. Although not my first or only handle, it's the one that means the most to me. The legend of the Phoenix is a mystical bird of fire that when it dies, it bursts into flames into a pile of ashes. From these ashes, the bird gets reborn. I stands for Isabelle and T stands for Tristen. Isabelle and Tristen would have been either the female or male name of my child that would have been born had my wife not miscarried. So for me it's a bit symbolic. As for the lower case/upper case letters it holds no significance.

BTW I know this thread had existed on EvilZone, just don't know if it was this rendition or one from the past

I'm not sure how short i can keep this, partially because ive used this name in one way or another for a LONG time. I originally started using this handle to write very dark poetry, so it started as a pen name. my "vision" of the world was "dark", hence DarkVision. But this really doesnt justify the name itself, so i feel at least SOME backstory is needed. Aside from the normal picking on any intelligent teenager has going on(and some girl trouble..sigh),  i had a second issue that probably weighed in a lot more on my depression at the time: I was on Ritalin. Fun little known fact? It can cause a chemical depression(and hallucinations/tracing etc...) since no one had informed me of this fun fact..and i was suffering from all of the above....it was not a good time.

Despite this what i was most down about wasnt my peers, the girl fucking with my heart, etc. I was just so down about the state of the world, the just seemingly endless list of problems in the world at large. Just thinking about it is not a happy time. So "Vision" also really pulls from my vision of the world at large, the problems of humanity. So yeah, i guess thats where my name comes from.

Apart from that i first started going by this name amongst my few hacker friends as well around the same time since it held a lot of significance to me, and ive never really felt the need for a different nick...in 15 years. Which i know is rather rare. I do occasionally go by some other things, especially when gaming, but even their im often just DarkVision, at this point i damn near feel more at home with my "online" name than i do with my own. It has been through so much with me, grown with me, for over a decade. And in the end: the world still sucks.

I am DarkVision and i approve this message.

What is the reason behind your handle? I ask this because I am the type of person who struggles to come up or stick with names I choose, not just for handle names, but program, company or any other task that requires a name to be picked. I am interested in to why some of you chose the names you picked, also are there any of you with the same problem where you find it hard to pick names for things and continuously question yourself "Could I have picked a better name?".

My handle Katheudo is linked with sleep, the Greek word for sleeping. Random I know, but who does not like sleeping huh?   ;D

/* Okee, I will answer this post with the reason I chose "Insanity" as my name in the forum. Problem is that I kinda got ahead of myself, started talking nonsense, and started rambling though, but bear (LOL, bears!) with me */

    If you want to know why I chose, "Insanity", look at how Albert Einstein put it, "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result." -Albert Einstein. Repetition is, and always will be a part of life whether you like it or not. You don't necessarily have to assume that nothing will change, but there is a fair amount of stability in what goes around us as human beings. Well, at least it depends on your perspective and how you approach it. Regardless, when people are approached with such a situation that questions their actions, some people tend to ramble on and not actually know what they're trying to say, which is what I'm doing, lol. So, I apologize for that. Moving on...
    I am called many things and have gone through many nicknames because of how much I move and travel, meet new people, ect, so when I originally was going to pick the nickname, I had many to choose from. I usually use a single username for most of the accounts I have, (don't ask for it, I'm not going to tell you) and considering that this is a "Hacking and Security" forum, there was no way that I was going to be dumb enough to use the same username I always do. Also, I might have been using that username for a while and may be embarrassed by some of the older, dumb shit I've said before, lol. So, I went through just about every nickname I had, and tried to find one that actually decently represented me or at least how I thought of myself. Believe me, it was a grueling task and one I can't believe I took more than half an hour on. I kinda feel as if I'm telling a story now, yay! Welp, I eventually came across this name, "Insanity", which was gifted to me by a guy I knew for a short amount of time and I felt that it'd fit both my personality and what I aspire to be. (Yes, I aspire to be an insane person, don't hurt me.) I like names, making them, picking them, ect. I find it amusing to label something with words. It's almost like you gain control over them, or stealing their soul or lack thereof when you do, I don't know why, ask my guitar, "Goliath". xD
    To answer you question of, "Could I have picked a better name?", I would say, hmm. Probably not. I feel as if that as long as you are satisfied with what you are called, (keeping in mind that your names directly influence how people perceive you, before they get to know who you actually are) you are fine. I like being called Insanity. I like people assuming I'm insane. I like it when people are shocked by things I say or do. Maybe I'm an attention whore, I don't know, all I know is that I'm completely happy with my name and it's preconceived notions that come with it. The only time you could go wrong is if you're a little 12 year-old girl and you name yourself "Beelzebub" or "Nosferatu" and then expect that people will assume you're cute and innocent and completely not a satanic ritual-seeking freak from some weird town in the middle of nowhere. That would be weird for both parties, and in that case, just don't do it I guess.
    I like your name, "Katheudo", it's pretty and I guess it reminds me of my name, lol. I'm kinda interested in the actual reason you asked this question. Generally, people aren't just curious without some sort of benefit, in my humble opinion : P Don't you dare steal my name, else I will end you and your silly little picture of a motorcycle! Muahaha! >: D Joking, joking, sorry...it's a little bit of my insanity showing again. <--- I am leaving that in my post, lol, so amusing xD

  Well, thank you for reading my worthless blather, and have a good day/afternoon/night/midday/midmorning/midafternoon/lateday/lateafternoon/latemorning/ect. Where ever the fuck you are and what time it is.
