Bump.

My name comes from the initials of my favourite football (soccer) player, Gary Kelly. He played for Leeds United, the club I support, from 1992 to 2007.

The name I often use on the interweb, Helloher, came from trying to register on a friend's site and failing. That reminds me, I need to tell him again to register here.
My above post explains everything about everything.

Host of: Wheely Tag, Back To The Beginnings, BTTB 2, BTTB 3, BTTB 4, & BTTB V.

Heavy Metal: Champion (Mockery of the Whole Concept)
Robotic International Wars Series 1: Champion (Minifridge 6)
RA2 Team Championships 1 & 2: Champion (High Speed Train & Upthrust - as part of Naryar's Not Quite Evil Council of Doom)

Runner Up in: The Amazing Rage (Team Fedex), R0B0NOVA (Zaphod Stock), Steel Warzone (Inception of Instability), Box of Nightmares (Gicquel), Wheely Tag (Minifridge the Second)

Clash Cubes IV: 5th place (Fretless)
BBEANS 6: Rumble Winner & 6th Place (Minifridge 4)

My name,well I was a member at a forum about chao (the little blue creatures on few sonic game,they're most noticeable in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle). At first I was "shadow_1" and eventually I learned how to make a chao to look like Shadow and I thought it was cool looking so I thought of making my username about shadow chao (which are dark run/run chao if anyone cares) so I changed my username to...

Shadow
The
Chao

My worthless retarded username (Radio F Software / RFS) is quite literally simply the name of the development group I belonged to at the time. I adopted "Radio F Software" in 2003 after a personal emergency required me to abandon my old name from 2001-2002. I had no username, but I needed one, so I adopted RFS with the intent to choose a new username "later". Radio F Software just so happened to be the media production group I ran at the time, formerly "**** Radio" (1995 - 1997), then "F Radio" (1997 - 1999), then "Radio F" (1999 - 2003), then "Radio F Software" (2003 - 2006), and finally "RFS Media Productions" (2007 - 2008), the name the group had when it eventually tanked and closed.

"Later" became "five years later" when in September 2008 I officially adopted "Dracophile" as my new username, a name that's creative and has some relevant meaning to me. "Dracophile" directly translates to "dragon lover". You can apply a sexual connotation to it if you wish and still be mostly correct in your assumptions, although the sexual side of it was not intended when I chose the nickname. My friends called me "dracophile" off and on for a while as a playful insult until I finally adopted it.

Words cannot really describe how much I hate the username RFS and everything that is tied to it. The entire duration of my life that I used that stupid name is an entire chunk of time that I am deeply ashamed of because I was being someone I wasn't. Adopting "Dracophile" was my way to break those chains once and for all and go back to the things I once enjoyed before I became RFS. I retained my username here mostly so that people would know who I am because I don't post very often.

So yeah. Nothing special about the story behind my name, just the fact that I loathe it.
The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

abandon my old name from 2001-2002.

Care to share in detail what happened, or is it THAT personal?

I prefer not to disclose. It's personal for a reason.
