I mean, I've seen heaps of forums and used at least two prior to coming on here. And I played a lot of games before. But by then I just hated all of those names so I thought "hm, what could I use on this forum". Especially given that HPL was on here.
Was scrolling through a few pages whilst thinking about this and saw that the OG 3 had just used their own names. However like 70%+ of the user database I read jakesilove as "Jake is love" the first time so I didn't think about my surname and just grabbed my first name. I felt relatively comfortable doing so more or less because the community was pretty friendly even at the start.
And well, Ace mostly comes out of the fact that somehow, the ace of spades just happens to be my favourite solitaire card (how cliche). But it sounded cool as well, because in one of the games I played, the Lvl 65 PvP set was called the "Sky Ace" set or something.
I always planned to incorporate "ace" into any future gamer names I had. But the forum beat the games to it.
P.S. This doesn't work one way Bea. You need to mention your's
