Character Names

Post by Tig3ress »

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?

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 :D
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 :D

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!!!!!!

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.

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.

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.
