Hey! But what does xhero MEAN???
Many many English speaking people posed this question… justified. Is it a hackerish post-modern underground punk nickname? An internet-generation-youngster identifier? It indicates your big ego (a hero with big values of x?)
Well, the answer is… it means nothing.
This is the story. A long long long time ago (but not in a galaxy far far away), I was signing up for a service somewhere, and I needed an user id (i think). Since I am not so good at inventing names, I just typed… **clicketeclick!**
XHRO was the result. A simple modification ad xhero was born! This was 1998 or so… Bear in mind that I am Italian and xhero is pronounced the Italian way: eeksero (more or less). So no x-hero or similar. Ah, and xhero is spelled all lowercase please.
That’s all folks :)
