Story behind your forum username?

[FoxEye]

I have absolutely no idea why I chose this name. I don't use it anywhere else.

In fact there are tons of FoxEye(s) on other forums, and I am no doubt giving them all a bad name

 

[Rannoch]

Handle? This isn't CB

I've changed your name, if that's what you mean.

Cheers

I wanted something that was anonymous and really liked the band Van Halen and the guitarist Eddie Van Halen.

I’ve often wondered if someone tries to pronounce my username phonetically, instead of per character e.g I’d say Ee Vee Aech, but I suppose if you’ve never heard someone say it allowed it could be “Ev Huh”.

I obviously knew what it was immediately.
I went on their first tour a couple of times when they supported Black Sabbath and Eddie had his amps/effects in a rocket.
He also turned his back to the audience when he played a solo so we couldn't see what he was doing.

Many years ago when I first started online gaming, I wanted Beelzebub but messed up the spelling I've used variants of Zeb ever since then. It was taken on here so I added my birth year...

 

[Smok3y]

I used to love the Smok3y and the Bandit movies and I also used to use CB radio a lot too where it was my handle. Smok3y in one form or another has been my internet nick since early days of CS/Doom/Quake/MegaTF. Been online gaming since I was 17 so I've had that nick for 25 years.

I always think of you as Ee Vee Aech.

 

[Raikko7]

Used to be mad into F1 and Kimi Raikkonen was my favourite. Had this username on other things before and it's just stuck i suppose

 

[bledd]

Chopped two letters off my name and removed the capital letter. Go inventive me

 

[Stickwickstapers]

I like Monty Python

 

[Sankari]

@Feek, can you please change my name to Sankari? It's the name I use on other forums. Thanks.

 

[something daft already!!]

I like Monty Python

If you are referring to the Book Shop Sketch, that was John Cleese and Marty Feldman in at last the 1948 show from 1967. This predates Monty Python.

 

[Feek]

@Feek, can you please change my name to Sankari?

Yes of course but it saddens me to do so, your name is (was) a memorable one and I like (liked) it.
