If your Snipey then is there a Pistoley or a Shotgunney? I need to know the lore.
we have no plans to add a pistoley or a shotgunney
the lore is a bit less complicated than I’d like because maybe it would be a cooler story… But around when I was 8 I got Xbox Live for the first time. My first chance at an online footprint was born- and from that, my dad and I schemed on what to make my name. And he pretty much came up with the whole thing: lilsniper16
this was because at the time I liked bolt action rifles a lot and my dad was nothing if not supportive of my childhood gun obsession. The shortening of little to lil was also a touch of his. The 16 comes from me being born on the 16th of the month. I think it’s supposed to be my lucky number or something like that?
Anyway, lilsniper16 became the username I had for everything, and it stayed that way up until I was 17. That was when I had first started using Discord and didnt want anyone to think that I was like 9 years old with a username like that, and so I changed my username to what a few of my friends had been calling me: Snipey Boi
You can figure out the rest pretty quick, but the Boi eventually got cut because it was dumb. Ergo, Snipey was now my username, but every step of the way it was basically just someone giving me the nickname. Even Snopsy (what racoon calls me) was what someone called me one time while super drunk, and I had used that in an Arma 3 Halo Mod server because I figured having a name somewhat close to “sniper” could be confusing. Snipey’s a nice username I think, but I have always wondered if I could have picked a better one. Oh well lmao, it’s probably here to stay
