Why did you chose your username?

Me, I love the Borg and the episode, TNG: "I, Borg" was awesome. "i" also stands for internet and I am on the internet right now.

Archer is my favorite captain and when I heard him mentioned as an admiral I chose it as my username.

Roboto... I was inspired by an awesome music video tribute to Data (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaEcP5NC-xo); the song used is "Mr. Roboto" by Styx.

On my avatar, I have the lines "Thank you very much (Domo arigato) Mister Roboto, until the day we meet again (Mata ah-oo hima de)."

(Edit: my new avatar says "I want to know the secret..." (Himitsu wo shiri tai))

Director, Actor, Auteur Jonathan Frakes was affectionately given
the nickname "two takes Frakes" by his TNG cast-members,
for his directorial efficiency. His singular vision brought
two successful STAR TREK features to the screen. One, VERY
successfull: FIRST CONTACT. The other, of course, being the
action-packed adventure: INSURRECTION.

And as my many posts reveal, I, too, am insightful, creative
and intuitive. So, when it came time to select a username to
be identified with, only one of STAR TREK's greatest visionaries
was going to do. And I couldn't have chosen better . . .

I study Classical Civilizations and ancient art, so Caesar was a natural choice for me. 753 BCE was the legendary founding of Rome.

Back in the day I created an account over st STF.net under the username "Wishfire." A few months later, when I created an account here, I used the same username so I wouldn't confuse those members that frequented both sites. After a while, I started changing my username on a regular basis, but they always had "Wishfire" in them. (Some examples are "Wishfire_Alpha," "Wishfire_Omega," "I_am_the_Wishfire," and, my favorite, "Wishfire_Wielder_of_the_Sword_of_Kahless.") But then the ability to change our usernames was taken away, and i got stuck with Invader_Wishfire.
