CVC
May I ask you why you made the page CVC, and redirected it to you? It is flagged with a deletion tag right now - Cracko 17:17, 18 March 2007 (CDT)

Character Names
Why do so many people use such transparent character names? The number of characters I have seen whose names are a reference to books by R.A. Salvatore is ridiculous. A little originality necessary here:

Seriously though, Wheel of Time is a good series. Defiant Elements (talk ~ contribs) 03:34, 27 March 2007 (CDT)

Hmmm... well, I will see if I can't prove the others are unoriginal. I just find it ridiculous how many people use Sci-fi/Fantasy references for character names.

Mine are all just random word combinations that sound cool, like on my PvE account some of them are: Vengeance Incarnate (Necromancer), Shield of the Dawn (Monk), Defiant Elements (Dervish), Tribal Seer (Ritualist), Royal Assassin (Assassin), etc. They sound cool and are original as well.

Carbonated Fizzbomb
Hmmmm... well, aside from sounding like the result of shaking up a soda, this one is definitely not a specific reference to anything..... Defiant Elements (talk ~ contribs) 04:12, 27 March 2007 (CDT)

Faylawen Australius
Well, not sure about Faylawen, but Australius, aside from sounding a lot like Australia, is also part of the scientific name of a plant. It is a type of hawkweed whose scientific name is 	"Hieracium australius" Defiant Elements (talk ~ contribs) 04:38, 27 March 2007 (CDT)

Your comment on my talk
Greetings, I am indeed a ranger fan, my ranger was my first and is my single most played character. My only character to beat all 3 campaigns(a little side note on that, I created my paragon as soon as NF came out, got him all the way to Gate of Pain before I even brought my ranger to Elona, and I STILL beat NF with my ranger first, heh) my only character I actively go for titles on, my primary farming character, and the character I'm most likely to bring when someone else asks for my assistance with something. I've already got the Beacon bookmarked in fact, very handy site, I've made use of several of the farm builds posted there from time to time, can be quite handy when I need a little cash(which is all the time really, I just rarely get motivated to farm, heh). And I've read a lot of Arashi and Reikai's ranger related posts on GWOnline even before the Beacon, the postings there definitely helped my ranger along in his early days(when I started him, I was trying to play him as both a bow user and a sword user, with a pet, and didn't really get the point of expertise at all...not exactly an ideal usage of attributes and skills there, lol)

About character names from fantasy material, well, I too am guilty of that with most of my character names, although my choices of reference are meant to be a little more obscure and/or veiled(without being specifically told, most people have no clue my ranger's name of Erik is actually meant as an alteration of Elric)

And BTW, nice Flogging Molly reference, top notch song to reference there. DKS01 07:03, 27 March 2007 (CDT)
