Holly crap its nice to see where folks come up with their names!


Mine is from my college days in a fraternity called "AHP" (Alpha Eta Rho) which means "Air" and as most of you know I am a pilot…

Much has turned into nicknames:
 “AHOP” (American House of Pancakes) – Thank you DJ & Cracka!
“AP” (Application) – I don’t know where that came from.
“Coiner” – From my last name Coin (John, Coin)


Every game I play if you run into “AHP” that is me!
Cheers!!!

Wings= Short for WingsofVengance

I know it's spelled wrong first off, it came back from the 90's when I opened the door up with the rest of the coders to the world of yahoo booting, cracking and all of that mess...we had fight clubs, where you went in chatrooms and used your programs to "flood" with special characters and packets, lagging everyone else out of the room (because dial up cant handle much ya know..neither could windows 95 or me.)

Started as cx0089001 as my name (you dont want to know why) but I would always get revenge on people so fast when they tried to knock me offline people said it was though I "flew" across the internet. (weird huh..)

Also around that time cowboy beebop was super popular, and my favorite character was Vengeance. Sooooo I had an elaborately long name. Upon playing multiplayer games that have crazy character limits..I thought it best to shorten my name to..

Wings
WingsLtd
Wings_co
WingsInc
Dr. Thunder (lol@walmart)

Think that about sums it up

NERD! haha. <3
