Screennames???

I was talking about AF the other day with my parents and I mentions the kiwis! My mom ask what they were and told here the NZ peepes of AF! :D

Well.......she didn't know whereit came from and I explainded

Now to get to my point. :p

Where did the AFer's get thier screennames? Why did you chose it and does it stand for anything? I know most are cars, but some aren't and just wondering? :)

well mine is obviously (or maybe not so) from the JGTC Skyline that won the Championship in 1999 season

.....HERE WE GO AGAIN.......:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

TARANAKI....A region of new Zealand noted for its brilliant sunshine[yeah,right],huge surplus of world class glamour models[yeah, right]
and a bloody great volcano which is visible from every part of the province.The mountain and lower slopes are a National Park,and are home to the common Brown Kiwi.

What's so funny???

lol, nothing, i just neva thought of a 106 as a good handling car, maybe its just me:p

ACTUALLY you know what the commentators on The commonwealth games in england called the NewZealanders KIWI's i nearly laughed my ass off ....nearly

It's very common for us New Zealanders to be called Kiwis just as the Australians get called Kangaroos.


My screen name comes from my favorite cartoon character.

y do we call you kiwis? do you grow kiwi fruit or somet? i neva understood that, same as i never understood why we call americans yanks.

the Kiwi is a native bird only found in New Zealand due to its expert flying ability (or lack thereof).

It has become the New Zealand icon alongside the silver fern.




as for the Americans being called yanks I think it may be because the rest of the world sees them as a pack of wankers if you are American . . . I'm just KIDDING



oh and yes we do grow kiwi fruit (which I believe originated in China (but I could be wrong))

ahhh, and its the silver fern thats on the all blacks badge then?

that is correct

well i was originally going to use cars rule (cus that is my name almost everywhere) but i used it in dec and got banned for being to young so i had to create a new name and so its ando rules my name is andrew and some people kno me as ando and i rule so ando rules

Nickname from college was Yogi - I own VR4(s) Its pretty straight forward.

VideoNasty, not just a clever porn name. Or a 1337 hacker name.

Its taken from a song by the British Goth/Punk band known as The Damned, title of said song: Nasty.

Lyrics: Catch, Catch the Horror taxi, I fell in love with a Video Nasty!


Fom the rest of the song you can gather that a 'Video Nasty' is a horror movie, hence why I call myself VideoNasty

"Pandamonium" came from the name "Panda" which was given to me by Spec2girl who maintains I'm realated to the Sexual Harasment Panda from South Park. (She could be so lucky) :p :p :p

Spec2Girl made the Panda!!!
:devil: :devil: :devil: :devil: :devil: :evillaugh :evillaugh

Yes, the Panda was christened by me because of certain acts he likes to perform! :p :hehehe:


I’ve got a Series 2 Skyline (also known as a Spec2), hence how I got my screenname. :D

hmmm what should I say about Darkness.

It's got numerous reasons. It's one of my fave comic books. It fits in with my like of dark almost gothic things(I'm not gothic though).

There are some other reasons but are more personal, so I won't elaborate.

When I was signing up, I was listening to the "Broken Arrow" movie score, and in that movie, John Travolta plays a character named Vic Deakins.

my name NSX R SSJ20K

come from a Honda NSX type R

Dragon ball Z and a ficticous 20K super sayjin level


Aim screen names:

swedishmafiaboss comes from me being the swedishmafiaboss

unbeatablelegend comes from initial D and the Skyline R32 GTR / R33 GTR / R34 GTR being the unbeatable race track legend or something like that cuz takeshi boasts about it then gets beaten by an AE86 cuz he's full of s*** on the downhill
