That's actually where my username came from; playing so well that people were convinced I was hacking. The omega came from an era where that shit was everywhere and I thought it was lame, so naturally it became the first half of my username. It was originally Omega Haxorz but it turns out that the second half is a naughty word in bri'in so I had to change it, because one letter was what made the difference.
You might think it's a stupid username which is why I love it so much. Nothing's more rewarding than having someone try to start trouble with you only to read out your username and you can hear the soul exiting their body as the stupidest thing that will ever pass their lips comes out and they have a rare moment of lucidity where they realize their life is not on the path to anything other than dying alone and depressed.
What was the original? You wrote that it was Omega Haxors but your nickname is still omega_haxors.
Omega Haxorz was the original, the one I've been using for a good portion of my life ends with the s.
