I have a lot of the regular ones in a FAQ (Newbie Info Kiosk) but it's
hard to keep up and really decide which ones have been adopted into
popular use. I think I stopped with Uniblonder/Unablonder.

Oiliens should go in, I should do some updating I suppose. Part of
the problem is that if there isn't one generally accepted nick I end
up doing stuff like:

Schwartzenalien/Terminalien/Bounty Hunter/....

gotta stop you there, osu. I can't let you do this. There's a very big
difference between stupid and ignorant. One is more easily curable than
the other.
