Poll: How many of you have changed your profile name?

[mb16]

i have been mb13 which when i first started playing games (age of mythology) then i went through to mb16 which i stayed with as i couldn't remember which name to use

although i have used MB Sixteen for names that said that mb16 was to short

 

[latenightapplepie]

I'm considering it. I don't really like my current username. Anyone got any suggestions?

 

[sky14kemea]

Nah, I've been using this username before I joined The Escapist, and I've grown really fond of it. It has loads of personal things in it (although only I know about it).

Someone suggested changing it to make the names start with Capitals, but I don't wanna. I like it all lowercase and I did it on purpose. I'm a rebel like that.
I don't get too annoyed when people write my username with caps though, I get more annoyed when they spell 'kemea' wrong. *insert angry face*

 

[Fraught]

Absolutely not. It only confuses people, and may make them not recognize me (well, if I didn't use this unique avatar I have), and why would I? When I make an account, I take some damn time to think of a username I'm going to keep (also known as the "don't-fucking-put-a-bunch-of-numbers-there" process), so I haven't seen much reason to. It's short, concise, recognizable, memorable (at least I THINK so), and everyone knows using a verb as your username is clever.

 

[child of lileth]

Nope. I don't really think I'd be able to come up with anything to even change it to. If I did change it though, it would have to be the worst name I could possibly think of, just to make it fun.

 

[Azaradel]

I've considered it, but I wouldn't really know what to change it to.

I quite like being called Azaradel, though, so a name change probably won't happen anyway...

Hey, you also prefer to avoid using emoticons. Because, you know, we're rebels like that.
*insert mischievous smiley face*

Hehe.. Yeah, I used to use them all the time but I'm trying not to now. Rebels!

 

[Count Igor]

You... you can change it?

No, I'm still trying to find the perfect username. Gotten through alot.
Can anyone recommend one?

 

[Zorg Machine]

I'm considering doing it to Zorg (it makes sense to me).

 

[LeonLethality]

Yea i have, Wasnt my choice though.

It used to be Coxafloppin, but someone complained to the mods about it.

Now its Wahful, as in..Waffle. Get it?

So did the mods tell you to change it or did they just give you a heads up of people complaining?

OT: I changed mine. It used to be something less awesome with less alliteration but the same amount of Leon.

 

[Hazy]

I did, and I'm happy with the result.

 

[Hurr Durr Derp]

I used to be "hURR dURR dERP" because I accidentally had Caps Lock on while registering. I had it that way for a while before I figured out you could change your name. Then I fixed the capitalization to what it is now.

 

[TheNumber1Zero]

Nope, I like my Username.
Pity it turned out to be a song reference, otherwise my name would've been more Unique.

If I ever did change it, it would probably contain the name "Bob".
Bob is not my name, and don't bother asking why Bob.
I won't be changing it though.

 

[SNIPERFOX ft. Harry P.Ness]

actually i found out i could change it but it says banned users cant change their name, and im not even banned. or am i? please notify me if staff read this

 

[Snarky Username]

Well, it was originally "Stranger 517" but I hated how I wasn't original enough to come up with a username without numbers.

Then it dawned on me, "I'm a rather snarky person, why not have a "Snarky Username?""

Don't worry, you can unless you've changed it before.

By banned they mean permanently banned from posting on the forums.
