Tinkertrain-syndrome 

MrTinkertrain is a user on IRC who cannot be identified by any other users on the network but knows who everyone else is.(exception to Admin and higher staff)
This causes 'Tinkertrain-syndrome'

Tinkertrain-syndrome: An IRC virus/infection which effects the curiosity of the victem(s).
Early warning signs of Tinkertrain-syndrome include denial, slight hate and mild begrudging curiosity.
The full blown Tinkertrain-syndrome infection/virus leads to insanity, voilent rage, rage /quit's and excessive pm's begging/pleading to find out the persons identity.


This can be adapted to other nicknames and other users on any network. The first case of this infection/virus was named after the first user not able to be identified.

MrTinkertrain is the original to the Nevitus IRC server. His true identity is still unknown.
Many have fallen in the quest to find it out... God rest their souls.
Warning logs are from the original MrTinkertrain users are advised to read with caution.
(Victems names have been changed)

ticket to heaven 

In the movies when a bad person sacrifices himself to save others it is said that he has purchased his ticket to heaven.

The last minute self sacrifice to protect an innocent from an untimely death with no hesitation or concern for your own well being is to earn a ticket to heaven.
The bad guy took a bullet to save the girl thus buying his ticket to heaven.
