In a post a little bit ago I found myself referring to members of Obsidian Portal as "OP'ers," and it occurred to me that we could use a more convenient shorthand for this, some kind of self-referential nickname.
Frex, the posters at ENWorld often refer to members of the community as 'ENWorlders' - easy to remember but decidedly lacking in style. Posters at Daily Kos* call themselves 'kossacks' - also easy to remember, but with a bit of clever wordplay.
So I put it to the OP community - can we come up with a fun nickname for ourselves?
* I'm citing Daily Kos strictly for its wordplay - let's keep personal politics out of this thread, please.

I have been using OPites (which Successwarrior thought sounded too much like 'opiate'), but I think I have a few suggestions, none of which are ideal in the slightest:
Portalers - suffers from the same lack of style you mentioned ENWorlders having
Obsidiots - way to pejorative to be accepted universally (though I think its funny)
OPerators...
Honestly, I still like OPites...
/shrug
Some HarnMaster fans call themselves Harniacks (Harn + Maniacs); so along that logic we could be OPiacks.
OPinions?
I like Dusk reign's OPites.

Now, y'all know I'm gonna have to name an npc 'Portallier' in "my game":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/le-ballet-de-l-acier, right?
