It's too complicated for me to explain but I'll try....When I was born my parents decided to call me Mark and my dads family's surname was James thus me inheriting it. Chop it down a bit and bingo :daumenhoch:

Post by: highrisedrifter on June 15, 2007, 03:20 PM

I was looking for the name for a Cyberpunk LRP character (live roleplaying).

I'd watched High Plains Drifter the night before so i thought i'd give it an urban twist. Hence High Rise (as in block) Drifter.

I've had it since about 1990. I pretty much guarantee that if you tytpe highrisedrifter into google you will get me.

In fact i've just done it and EVERY hit is to do with me in some way. Spooky.

Post by: Haro82 on June 15, 2007, 04:21 PM

I just chose mine cos I was selling my mates HARO Gen1 on the bay and someone sent me a message pointing me to RAD. I just popped on to have a look at the forum cos I had a Gen1 as well and was thinking of getting rid of it so I signed up with HARO and the year I thought I bought it (then after reading Toads registry on Haros I realised I had the wrong year, but hey ho)

So I've ended up with a bit of a boring username but got a mint restored Gen1 now  :daumenhoch:
