4th edition ~ funny monikers!

Post by Tadhg »

Preface:

Fun post. Not to make anyone upset, but just to have a little fun.

I'm the first one to say, that I don't bash any 3rd edition fans. Not at all, but I've been struck by some of the funny names rendered in the past.

OK, so we had 3tards and various other funny names for 3rd edition fans.

So how about 4th edition? What to call the "fans" of this game???
Mine:

4nicators!
Next?

there were some good ones over on ENworld (including 4nicators). I'm too lazy to track down the thread.

One I remember was 4eners (as in "damned 4eners, why don't they speak our language!" - or whatever crusty old-cootisms you care to dream up about foreigners).

Oh sure. You'll laugh at his 4orons but won't touch my 4skin?

That sounded dirty.

Don't you work at a prison? Says it all, I think, regarding the 4skins.

Julian just hit it perfectly, if indirectly: 4players.

Sounds too much like Furons. And Furons are awesome.

Couple people on ENWorld mentioned 4$$hats. But I just call them sheep.

I like both 4ons and 4eners.
