It's rare to find people who choose web aliases that actually have a story behind em.
Mine's pretty simple, back in 2006, when I was a little more geekier in the lame kinda way I made up a Star Wars character who happened to be an X-Wing pilot named "Lynk Former"... and just so you know, his rank was Commander and he was the leader of a Squadron, yada yada.
Then in 1999 I joined the RogueSquadron.net forums as "Corran Horn" (a name of a character from a Star Wars book), around the same time I also opened up my first web site which was about the Star Wars Rogue Squadron game for the Nintendo 64 and I used the name "Commander Lynk Former" as my alias. Soon after I had opened that site I had my account name of RogueSquadron.net changed to Lynk Former and I've been using that as my web alias ever since... but yeah, I dropped that "Commander" part completely since it's not relevant anymore lol
