Why is the hun called TheHun ?

From the school history lessons i remember that the huns came from a different place (central asia).

Am i missing something ?

cause he's a big yellow guy that runs around with an axe, sounds like a reasonable name...

He's from the netherlands, and as far as i can think, thehun is just some name made up out of nothing..

but TheHun himself might be able to shine a light on this one

Hmm..... i though it had to do with where he comes from.

The Viking or The Barbarian or The Vandal would be more appropriate.

He called a psychic line and said "I want to have the largest TGP, what name should I call it"

She said "Hun" in Iran means luck, Iran = TGP is you use the right algo to calculate the main charc. "The" is the most used word in the world so she came up with "TheHun"

He means it not as a Hun from Asia, but Hun, short for Honey, a term of endearment.

Their Empire stretched from the Baltic to the Caspian when, in 445, one of their two joint-rulers murdered his colleague and seized control of the Confederacy. The murdered man was named Bleda and his murderer was his own younger brother, Attila.

Attila reinforced his position by, it is said, digging up a rusty old sword and proclaiming it to be the Sword of Mars. The Empire he inherited was built on and sustained by booty; without a continual flow of plunder and tribute it could not survive.


Long live booty!

Could be misinformed, but I thought that was the handle he used back in the day when he started collecting links to adult websites on chat boards... ???

maybe he forgot a 'g' when he registered the domain and it was suppose to be "TheHung".

But when he started he was too broke to re-register it.

Close... I started using the handle a couple of years before I even got connected to the Internet. I was in demo compo's, programming graphics, music, that stuff, all in Assembly to make the best graphics using the least amount of code, which what the compo's were all about. 64K demo's were the best ;-)

Anyway, EVERYBODY there used a handle, so I made one up. I thought 'The Hun' was very approriate.

I have a Master degree in Computer Science, but on the course they didn't have Internet. I wanted to know how the web worked so I decided to find out how HTML worked. So I bought a 5 dollar program somewhere that was used to make homepages. The program would take a title, a background color, an image under the title and links to other sites. Playing around with that program and checking the results in the generated HTML tought me about backgrounds, anchors, fonts and stuff. After that I wanted to check how to get it on the web. After a long search WSFTP was found on my provider and I uploaded the page. The links on there could have been anything, but they were links to adult sites, mostly previews for paysites. I passed that link (www.tip.nl/users/~t256553/thehun.html, don't bother testing it, it's not there anymore) to a couple of people on the chat-boards and that's how it all started...
