Somthing I don't like is usernames of people like crabpwnege121 or noobbeast542 or XxsillymanxX. Do you really wan't to go around on th einternet like that?. Granted my xbox acount thing is somewhat like that, but it was not my choice. I remember making a acount and giving it the xbox live demo. It was called cheese butt. People on halo 3 where singing songs oing like "cheesy butt, cheesey butt." So if people like names like this, why do they keep using names with all those numbers and crud. I have a seperate acount name that I use fro alot of things, and I didn't need any numbers and X's to make the name work. So before I leave, don't hate on me for this rant like thingy, and I know someone may add numbers to make the name work. So what's your thoughts on this?

I say you've failed because after reading your OP I don't know what the fuck is going on. I case my hunch is right, I personally notice a player more when he/she has only his name and not a clan tag or xXx all over the place

I usually use Charybdis as a name, but it was taken. That said, Omikron009 is the only name with numbers on the end I ever had that sounded right to me. People add numbers on to the end of a name because their original choice was used already. I think.

Yeah it's so annoying...
Anyway, my number is the answer to the ultimate question; to life, the universe, and everything, so who are you to argue?
EDIT: I forgot which username I use on this site, I usually use reg42

My name only has numbers on it because Blackmagic was taken... Otherwise I don't see the big deal. So someone has numbers in the name, so what? People have numbers in their names in real life anyway.

I can't stand smartass people who insist on using illegible characters in the name, if that's what you mean?

Conversation usually goes: "Hey, Smrgyyt or whatever your name is... I'm going to call you Terry because your tag is illegible... Hey Terry - gimme your medkit"

I'll confess to being guilty of making usernames that end in numbers.

Other than that, I do share the OP's dislike of names bracketed with X's, with one possible light exception on the Escapist (and no, I'm not referring to xmetatr0nx).

I'm insulted because:
1. My xbox live gamertag has numbers in it but it ACTUALLY has a meaning to it, numbers are not meaningless you know
2. My PSN tag is PROFITofPWNAGE because I thought it would be funny if someone was getting owned by someone with that name.

But I have to agree that the x's and what-not around the name shows no creativity or originality.

Back when I was a little kiddie, I used Scorpion7666. Changed it to this when I was sick of saying the numbers out-loud.

Mine comes from a stupid change to the word "gamer" and my birthday. I don't get why people use all the Xs and stuff on their names either. As a side note, I wish I could change mine.

My gamertag has a story. I forgot how I got my escapist name. But I like both because they are are creative, they do not posess and x's, and most importantly, it doesn't have the word assassin in it. If i have a dollar for every gamertag i've seen with the word assassin or sniper, I could get at least four fairly expensive games with the money I'd make.

*EDIT* Although I saw someone with the gamertag X. just X. I have to agree, that was B.A.
