My nick started when my friends started calling me Kobe , I was pretty tall and good in basketball that's back in 2004 when Kobe Bryant was banging MVP .

but I kinda hated that nick , infact I didn't even knew who Kobe Bryant was cause I was not a basketball fan , we friends used to go to gaming zone and one of them had my account built there by name of coby , so i had to use it in counter strike and other games as well .

I was was planning to change the nick when I googled it and found out there is character named coby of some cartoon never watched it dou , who was chubby small height and become tall and thinner wears glasses has scar above his eye , that profile fitted me in real life as I was short height and chubby as a little kid but in my teenage i grew up in height a lot plus become skinny also I had a accident leaving a scar on my eye brow so I decided to keep it , and it's my nick since then .

No Jshak it should've been JSKHA if it was derived from your name!

My nick was created (as you can guess) when I was a kid. There was this guy who used to tease me in real life so I made this nick to add him (we had msn messenger in those days) and avenge.

But started to use this id more often, became popular in online forums with it so here it is today.

And if I knew I had to stay in PG this long, I would've made a proper mature nick. (And thanks to jshak he doesn't change my nick too upon several requests -.-)

Some interesting stories out there.......

My nick is the closest anglicized version of my real name. Also had the chance to visit Turkey when I was very young and found the Ottoman Turks' history very fascinating. I guess that helped in me choosing this PG nick.

I joined PG back in '07 with the name of The Dragon King, at the time I was 11 perhaps and dragons intrigued me. They were like the most powerful beasts and I wanted to rule them taking their power and stuff :p but then I grew up and realised it was too childish, changed it to Khawaja which is my Surname plus it was what I had everywhere else on internet. ^.^

I once snitched on 5 people in college who'd somehow managed to leak a midterm exam statistics paper. Kevin Spacey is a big inspiration.

Optimus was not really a good guy considering his history and betrayal.

    The only valid thing from his pov he said in the video is AC dead since Black Flag. According to woke police that game was woke too. Welsh man in West Indies. So atleast he's consistent I guess lol

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.
