But I'm interested to know what the term "Akaran" means. See, when I made the name almost 4 long years ago, it was just somthing that popped into my head, and not somthing I had ever heard before or read (or if it was, it wasn't somthing I noticed consciously). Ok, cue in to the present. A friend of mine - I don't know why - did a google on the word Akaran.

The results are surprising, to say the least. Apparently I've posted to IGN's news page for Anarcy Online, there's a virus named after me, a species of turtles and seemingly a common last name for germans and or asians. Thinking a bit of both, and I'm not entirely sure but I may have a porno page linked to me.

So the question is:
What does the word Mean? What are the orgins of it?

I'm very curious now.

I have no fucking clue what your name means..nor do I care! :razz:

My name was randomly generated after 30 names I tried got rejected..

BTW...there is wimpy druid on another server with the same name. He (Yes, he is an evil Mangina) registered on ign boards and tho he never posted, I had to register using my full name....I hate him a lot for that...umm, what were we talking bout?

Oh yeah, what your name means...I don't care, but I like mine! :twisted:

Well.. judging by the usual reaction I get from my friends, I do know, at least, I am doing my part to bring a smile into the world, even at my usual incredible discomfort..
