I was recently given a few high level characters by my quitting friend.

My only problem is they have some pretty strange names,

does having a odd name annoy you when you play?

No, but I go for the originals if I can..

OT: Sharing is caring? XD

Idd, what are the names? xD

And no, I like weird names ^_^ So it wouldn't really bother me, unless it's like racist or some lame joke.

Only thing that bothers me is if the name is too hard to tipe
Like something without a meaning with letters and numbers...
Not that it bothers me that much, i just don;t pm them if they aren't on my friends list

Yes.
I hate names with 0's or x_something_x, sOMeThiNg_TR, lIlIIIIlllIIl.

i hate XxXNAMEXxX or ChArAcTeR_NaMe or III or those other radoom things that just look stupid, that would bother me to be using

What he said

Doppleganger wrote:Character has to have a capital letter to start and no numbers in it and no underscores, no 1337 speak, Nona "xX,oO vV,II" at the start or end of the name it just slowly drives me crazy and when i see characters running around with all of those I GO CRAZY! HOW CAN YOU PEOPLE STAND THAT!! IT LOOKS LIKE CRAP AND I LOOK AROUND AND ITS JUST AARRGGGGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!
Code: Select all

Underscores are fine but only between words. Still prefer to not use them unless the name is already taken, usually by me though, not many people make names like me.

name example
ill choose a ANNOYINGLY popular name (i dnt think this will fit but its an example)

Naruto_Sasuke ok
Naruto_sasuke ok (not as ok as above)
NaRuTo_SaSuKe fail
NaRUto_SAsuKE fail
XxXxNaruto_SasukeXxXx fail
IllINaruto_SasukeIllI fail
_Naruto_Sasuke_ ok

Capital at the start of new word and NOWHERE ELSE! (unless its iWhip or something)
NO NUMBERS OR LETTERS AS 1337 SPEAK!

It doesn't look nearly has bad as some of the names I see running around. I give it a 5/10 because of the x's though ; )

I made it 2 years ago on sro that is i mean... it wasnt as bad then

Names don't really bother me at all....I even find some of them funny..and some lame..But this one name I saw once got me twisted...I wanted to laugh and vomit at the same time....the name was "Anal_Leakage"

the basic asfdsg names.

Ice blader named Frostitute = win

I can't think of an IGN that I hate more than my own. It's... PH0110010011. I know. WTB name-change scrolls.

Dang that sucks, no offense lol

|||||||||||| or O0O00OO0OO

I agree with a lot of the things already said.

Something I really hate (that's pretty dumb for me, looks so childish) is names like these:
Supernuker, 1337nuker, purestr, pureint, elitebower,glaviegod... and all those stupid and obvious names.

all my 2189782172121 nooblets and my main chars have names that start with a capital letter and are single words. Most of em names of gods and godesses. Damn im so proud of em.

1337 5l>34l< Rocks ! I hate names like TR_XXX_TR or god turk or whatever also with LT sucks , well let's say xxx_(nation leters) suck.

Only thing I hate are typo's in names .....

I also dont like names that try to be funny. I'll admit some actualy make me laugh but ones like BigBoobies and GiantDick can be a bit annoying.
