The Story Behind the Name

Hello everyone! My name is rioforce. Some call me "rio". And some don't call me at all. But those who call me rioforce ask, "Where did your name come from?" Well, today, I will tell you. On October 15, 2007, I wanted a new LEGO.com account. (I said new because I already had one but the name was not cool.) So, I went to LEGO.com with it's old interface and all, and clicked "Sign Up". I went through the Terms Of Service,


and I got to the Sign Up page.




I wanted to have a cool username without numbers at the end, and I really liked LEGO's line "Exo-Force"and Ryo, so I mixed the 2 words. And I came up with Ryo-Force.


Please Note: All images is a translated image from the "Way Back Machine".

LEGO.com wouldn't let me use that name, so I changed the "Y" to an "I", and added "ed". :P Not really. I just changed "Ryo" into "rio". And tada! It worked! And it's been that way ever since.
                    THE END!
