Who am I?
Following @traciyork’s invitation to do an introductory post I decided to write some words about me.
After consulting some other introductory posts I just wanna say that I deeply appreciate the courage some people have when they decide to dox themselves. Given that we are in a crypto related environment I’ll just say that my name is Adrian, I live in a funny Eastern European place. My passion for crypto was nurtured by my passion for stocks and investments which came along when I was getting my MSc in Economics.
Since my nickname always raises eyebrows (looking at you @marcuswahl) let me tell you it’s story.
Some couple of years ago when PUBG was gaining track, I decided to jump in with the absolute intention to win and destroy my competition. Now destroying your competition sticks into their memory if you have a resonating nickname. I needed a single word, something that raises an emotion when you read about who won. My immovable condition was for it not to contain numbers or symbols, I never understood this, how can you name your account @Bulldog1205 or infidel1258 (@decunningham), what do these numbers even mean? So, after many tries, and many dictionary searches I found Dishonesty, a bit of an EVRIKA! moment. Now my PUBG career was short and full of defeats, but for some reason I seem to find that this nickname is always available in all the games I play.
My Splinterlands experience is a blast, and I hope this will last for a lot of years. But this journey was deeply enhanced by peakmonsters - thank you @jarvie and @asgarth. Since August 21st I have made around 1400 transactions, thus I learned about Resource Credits and mana the hard way XD. It’s safe to say that no amount of RC from the Gift Giver site would have satisfied my needs.
Hope I didn’t bore you guys with my little story. @traciyork & @lovesniper
Peace out!
Electronic-terrorism, voice to skull and neuro monitoring on Hive and Steem. You can ignore this, but your going to wish you didnt soon. This is happening whether you believe it or not. https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism
Definitely didn't bore me, @dishonesty (says the person who totally doxed herself the minute she set up her account...lol). I love the story behind your screen name, and my guess is those numbers are probably related to birthdays (like December 5th for Bulldog, and January 2nd 1958 for infidel). More ways we dox ourselves. 😜 😂
I do have a suggestion though - when sharing images/text that are not your own (as with the photo you have here) it's best to include the source link. Hive is different from other social media in that your content is monetized, so we're extra careful that people don't try to capitalize on other people's work. And as I said in the Love Sniper message, feel free to shout out if you have any questions! 😊
Hi @dishonesty,
That’s a good explanation about the name you’ve chosen... and so long as it doesn’t define you... it creates such wonderful imagery! It’s interesting that this is a name that’s never picked like it’s some sort of black hole vortex taking you some place else! In this case @Splinterlands and @PeakMonsters! 😆 Hey! Another gaming destination you should try, that’s a bit of a home base for me here on Hive, is @exodegame! It’s a wild space adventure/escape game!
Now here’s the part where I gotta say! I do agree with you! I’m the same... I want a username that says something and doesn’t have strange symbols and numbers attached to it! Something unique but that also says, “Hey! I thought if that and I was the first to do so!”. A name is important!
You’ll notice that my username is my actual name... this initially was a hard thing to do (especially with crypto being what it is...) but I noticed that all the great influencers lead with their name and face... and I’m the sort that likes to be in the center of whatever is happening... be it chaos or wins... I want to be there in the thick of it. So perhaps this is a personality type? I donno... but yeah! I’m one of the real and friendly faces of Hive and so WELCOME!
I gotta say! I loved your mysterious intro, name, and destination photo (which was BEAUTIFUL by the way!). I’m glad that you have come for the gaming and discovered the whole expanding universe of Hive and I hope that this place becomes home base for you as it has for me!

[edit] Included the right account name for the Exode Game! @exodegame

I like the screen name a lot. One word names always worked for me when I was a big gamer.
You’re right about the dox part bro. Stay low profile with the personal stuff. Blockchain is forever.
