Profile Reasons
 

*Note: I've searched the forum, and haven't found anything like this. If there is, then I apologize.

After the success of my opposite opinions thread (which I bumped way to much toward it's demise), I thought I'd make another thread to do with opinion/reasoning.

Basically what I'm asking for is:

Why you picked your username, and how is it TF related?

Why did you pick your current profile picture, and how is it TF related?

How did you pick your phrase which goes bellow the title, and how is it TF related.

I'll start. I picked my username for the obvious reason that I like Camaros. This is TF related, as Bumblebee's alt mode in the movies is what opened me up to this great line of cars. i am currently interested in the 57, 77, and 10 models.

My current profile picture (which I'll change soon), Admiral Ackbar, was chosen as I always found the "it's a trap" line and it's parodies funny. Although this isn't really TF related, it is still a nerdy/Sci-fi type thing.

Lastly, I picked my phrase as I found it a little funny, and it is TF related because of the word masterpiece.

So how about you guys?:primelaugh:

Alright, little getting to know session. Sounds like fun given our new members.

1. User name: Team Jetfire. I forgot the first forum I signed up for, but I used the name Darth Optimus. That made sense as I was both a fan of Star Wars and Transformers. I used that name for a while on TFW, but then, for some weird reason it was erased from existence. I was happy though as Darth Optimus was a bit of a jerk and this was an opportunity to start fresh (Note to this true story, it was not an alt ID, nor was I ever banned from TFW) and I then started posting under Team Jetfire. I'm not sure why I picked that name, but it had to do with the Japanese duds, adding Team in front of a group, for example, Team Rocket. Jetfire was also my first and favorite transformer as a kid, so it made sense. Looking back, I should have made it a little less transformers centric as I like to keep my ID's the same on all forums I post on, but Oh well.

2. My avatar is a T-shirt design that I saw on Donkeyts.com. As people sometimes call me TJ, I figured it kind of fit.

Not TF related, but who doesn't donkey TJ?

3. My title is an inside joke that no one else will get, but I laugh about it all the time.

Essentially I work with a guy who recently immigrated from India; super great guy, but still working on the language and grammar. One day he brought me a large cheque of a client and he jokingly said 'Here, I got this cheque for you to deposit into your account, but I bet would you like more zero's in the behind' meaning that I would like to steal the cheque, but only if it were a higher amount.

Re: Profile Reasons
 

my initial username seali_me. seali a nickname given by some girls back in college. it came from sealy posturepedic, the bed mattress. Not tf related.

Buhawi, means tornado in Tagalog. I'm a proud Filipino. Not tf related either.

Ama ng Alamat translates to father of the legend. It came to me after finding out I was about to become a father. that was more than a year ago. Again not Tf related.

Location: Bundok Maharlika literally translates to Royal Mountain or Mont Real.

Profile pic is of a proud brown man.

My signature picfor now is HA Jazz peeling off a dead fanboy from his feet.

Thank you both for replying! Nice to see 2 mods being the first ones interested in my thread!

I love GM as well!

Re: Profile Reasons
 

Didn't need to go quite that far into detail, but thanks for replying, nonetheless.

Re: Profile Reasons

**High-Five!***

Re: Profile Reasons
 

It's pretty simple.
1 -Sun Streaker, Side Swipe, and Optimus Prime.

2 - Well it's of the only Autobot brothers I acknowledge.

Re: Profile Reasons
 

yeah. its old and I have a family now so I changed it. lol

Re: Profile Reasons
 

Cool!

I picked Hobbyist Prime because I have been toiling away in the world of scratchbuilt transformers for a while now and I just love the way it connects everything for me!

My profile pick was one I stumbled upon searching for TF wallpaper for my laptop. I'm pretty sure it's a fan made character but I just freakin love that pic!!!!!
