You sure? Isn't the word you're looking for ''kami''?
At least I have never come across the word Shani before.

Amelyth is my alter ego.. She is a character I have been working on over the years  and hope to illustrate at some point.. She likes to hit things with frying pans.. Rides a turtle everywhere throws little bunnies at her enemies and is a cat at heart.. Wherever she is is where she is meant to be... She is terribly curious and is glad when there is adventure to be found.. She will befriend the evil boss monsters because deep down its just that they get beaten up so much for being different and what society calls scary and monsterous so she decides to get to know them.. Especially if they drool or have tentacles or are firey..  There is no gravity or laws about time and space and logic is chaotic.. :D  Theres more  to it than that but ill let you get back to your pixels..
Yes, I play wow.

Quote DeProgrammer Replybullet Posted: 27 November 2009 at 4:54pm
This topic deserved to be revived, and don't you doubt it!

I chose DeProgrammer as a semi-gangster way of saying "The Programmer" (ie. Da Programmer) while mocking my own coding skills. It was first used in a game of Soldat against my mentor, who owns me, so I was trying to be modest. But I love to think about the other meanings it could have.

One who undoes programming
Deprogrammer, the actual word

Originally, I used my real name on the 'net, but at some point I decided to change, but my email/IM accounts and website all have links between my new name and my real name. DPMM99 is a mix of DeProgrammer, my name, and my oldest email address (9 is my lucky number), and I use that for my instant messengers and whatnot. My website is the same thing but without the 99.

I kinda wish I had chosen something more rare, as DeProgrammer was taken on MySpace and a few other sites I've gone to...but that's why dpmm99 came about.

I've been thinking of changing it, but it's fairly late, since I've used it in a lot of places.

Quote x-death Replybullet Posted: 09 December 2009 at 6:02am
i picked mine for a few reasons:
- people used to say i had such bad luk it was like i cheated death. so when some cheats on someone they are considered there "x" so i named myself what i did. in all cases the dash just looked cooler to me.
- a side to me strives for death, chaos and destruction so death was a theme that seemed somewhat relevant at the time, also x is the shape of a ninja star. and is usually a letter which not only sounds cool but is usually added to a number of cool things i like.

there were a few other reasons but they aren't releveant and are kind of person jokes within friends, so...yeah thats mine done.

Douhneill started off with my cousin annoying me by deforming the way he pronounced my name (Daniel into something along the lines of D'oh-nEE-all). Eventually it morphed into "Do-Kneel", which I changed the spelling into Douhneill so that I could have a unique username.

I also go by the name Yorfeneger sometimes, which is essentially what I got when I typed the first few letters to come to mind one time. I used to use it more for when I was acting more like a jerk, but now it's essentially a secondary account name for MMOs or something.

"Elastico-Gadget" is a fantastic word pronounced enigmatically during the Inspector Gadget opening theme in it's french version. Since it could designate whatever is not rigid I found this word fabulous. And it sounds good.

Heh, we're rather similar there.

Mine is the word for "bunny rabbit" in my conlang. (Well, it has been truncated to ékobo now, but back then it was ékobore, which through need to type quickly became ekobor...)

I had a girlfriend who called me her little rabbit at the time when I first started using it.

Them I came back to the forum trying to create a new account with another username, but it just said that I already had an account named -noOb-. I think that's all.
