What's the story behind your RS name?

Featured Replies

Well for some reason a lot of people seem to think I got my user from Randy Orton, a WWE superstar. But I never did, because I really don't like him at all.

 

 

 

Basically, my user was picked because of my friends. They all wanted similar user names so we could easily distinguish each other, and probably to confuse people as well so we all chose the same name with the numbers different. We chose Randy because I'd the oldest so they named them after me, and I ended up being the 1009th person to choose the name so it's the number I'm stuck with.

 

 

 

To be honest I'd probably change it now if given the chance, but we can't so I just deal with it.

my user is called greg1g now i called myself this because my names greg with only 1 g so thats as simple as it is 8-)

Alot of people ask me why I have a name like longbow when range isnt my highest combat stat. alot of people presume it's to do with my fletching lvl but this is silly as my account was f2p for ages.

 

 

 

The truth is I'm a big fan of the delta force names and when I started rs I also had just brouh DF land warrior and anyone who's ever played this knows that snipers call sign is "longbow"

 

 

 

The KJ part is just my innitials

I will tell all you youngsters a story that happened somewhere in 2002. Everybody was complaining about working in those days, but when I decided to speak to them, I realized that... OH right, the name and how I got it.

 

 

 

Can you believe that I would be playing a youngster game? Anyway, this part is also interesting-:realizes that he has forgotten and so the real WM12 speaks:

 

 

 

I got the name from Avacor which is a re-hair grower. I DO NOT HAVE ANY HAIR TROUBLE EXCEPT IT LOOKS LIKE AN AFRO. Because I thought that Avacor was spelled Abacore; thats how you got my name. When I found it it was false, I also discovered that people never asked if I was bald :?

We should euthanize anyone who lacks the capability to contribute to society in any way.

Please don't elect this man for president in 2012

well, i guess i got the name "reboblican" from having the IRL nickname bob,

 

and having that develop over the course of 6-7 years. original, huh?

 

 

 

one of my pures, "beezlebob666" is a take on "beezlebub", with the ever-present numbers... it does nothing to describe the pure itself, and i like it.

 

 

 

my third acc, (and my newest, possibly best) is named "armouredcell" again, it is a pure (of sorts =/) and the name describes all.

Well, the story of my username is short.

 

 

 

My friends used to make up names for me to annoy me when we were about 11 - 12 years old. One of these was Mr Vegetable. I don't know why they made it up, it just came out of nowhere. They stopped calling me it ages ago but the name stuck in my head and I use it in most places on the web since I was 13, so nearly three and a half years now.

 

 

 

The number 2 comes from the order that the account came in. The original Mr Vegetable I messed up, Mr Vegetabl0 I messed up, Mr Vegetabl1 I got bored of and wanted something new, so I made Mr Vegetabl2 a long time ago and has been my most successful and longest running account to date (and has been P2P since 15th June 2006). I don't use the others anymore.

the story of my user name u ask?

 

 

 

well, my friend wanted me to start playing Rs i thought i would never play it again so i made ximigda just got up with the name

Well, the story of this account is as follows.

 

 

 

I knew lightsaber would be taken, so I tried L1ghtsaber, no dough. Tried this, it worked.

 

 

 

And, here's the story of my noob acc, Sirjayofbyrd.

 

 

 

As you would guess, my name is Jay. My friends called me Jaybird (lol)

 

and I was into knights and things, so that acc was born.

On December 10, 2007, after a long struggle, I finally gave up membership, as the only thing I did in RS, pking, was gone.

Jages, you just bit the hands that paid you.

mine is vaartjes0, i was like 11 years old, had no inspiration so i used my last name for my first account. That one died a couple of times, so i thought it was cursed and made a new one. That one was named vaartjes0, the first suggestion :P

well my original account i made was davy2004 and after a few days i got brought into the wildy and lost everything. I was angry so i made a new account so MADdavy2004 :lol:. So uh ya thats how i got my name not to exciting.

My story is fairly boring. "Lord Smiloid" is a name I have used in several places across the Internet; it originated with an unpopular Flash series called Faceball, in which floating smiley faces would fight with paintballs. The bots in this game were called "smiloids". I was extremely proficient at this game, so I called myself Lord Smiloid - and the name stuck.

 

 

 

I wish I had known Runescape's rules of name capitalization - I wanted my name to be LordSmiloid, but it was restricted to Lordsmiloid. Most people can't even tell what it says.

 

 

 

I also have accounts as Lord Smiloid (a level-20 noob) and Matomatic (an old pet nickname of mine) as my weak defense pure.

When i was playing basketball during my freshman year of high school my teammates nicknamed me Big Nasty (its a long story) i switched the second at last letters of each word then just made it into one word Viola Bginysta

Interesting story behind mine, some parts of its history are illegal. about 4 years back my friends ,who's names will not be mentioned, tried to sign me up for a weight loss drug as a joke. They used one of their addresses and my nick name at the time, scootlaboot. The illegal part was the credit card number they randomly typed in, it worked and it came to his house a couple weeks later. Last year ,about this time, when i created my first account i tried out scootlaboot and it worked end of story.

 

 

 

P.S. i did not have anything to do with the events that involved the credit card or weight loss drug. to the best of my knowledge he threw it away.

If you choose your beliefs/lifestyle simply based on what your parents want, then you are a weak minded individual and are not even worthy of calling yourself a person.

I got my name because at my school everyone called me cheeseman because of my love for cheese.The numbers 896 came because that was the only name avaible at the time.

cheeseman896.png

well mine is

 

 

 

Slc Davis

 

 

 

How it became that is

 

 

 

Scottish Lauren Caroline Davis

 

Lauren Caroline Davis is my name and im scottish lol pretty wierd lol

Slc_Davis4In_Liner93

 

Lauren 4 dan

old pass word for my school net work i just thought "oh that would make a good nickname online and its stuck 8-)

 

 

 

same but i got boring old jon(athan)dea(kin)0 because someone had already taken it =(

 

 

 

i then realise the nice fealing of having a nice name when im level 80 so theres no point starting again. all my new accounts have imaginative names

 

they are normally mythical like: marquith, or based on rs mobs: desuos, kreus dayth and one i like xelete (my brother, but i made up the name)

 

 

 

I had 13 years when I met RS, and I thought it was a login name and that you chose your name later, so...
hehe i can tell you are French dont ask how

When I first started playing I had one account what got scammed by someone... I was lvl 15 or something like that. So, I maked a new account named Srsrs. Why that name? I wanted to be original and without number or any extra characters. Rsrsr was taken so I chosed Srsrs. Im happy with that.

Honestly, I don't know why... I think I was making it for the first time, some 6 years ago, and my mother told me to "get off that damn computer and pause the video." (VHS...xD)

 

 

 

For some reason 'pause' stuck in my mind when I sat back down, so I tried it. Taken of course... So I tried my own little variation of it, hence 'Pozzz'

 

 

 

----------

 

 

 

I thought I would add because it pains me now:

 

 

 

Shortly after joining RS, it was Christmas... I was too young at the time to think ahead and keep my phats. I had 2 reds, a yellow, and a white. (Blue was ugly) ^_^ If only... :(

My RSN is Kway Teoh 94. It's a really simple story.

 

 

 

In Singapore where I live there is a kind of flour noodle called Kway Teow. Since my surname is Teoh, I switched the name to Kway Teoh and added a 94 behind because i was born in 1994! Yay.

 

 

 

In RL I like to eat noodles =D

Appreciate Life for all its Lameness.

when i put down my username (paulin50) i didn't think that this would me my avatars name, :wall: so i chose something which i would never forget. its just my name (paul) in-50 because 50 is my faveroute number.

 

quite sad really. ohh well.. :cry:

oversized.jpg[/bads]

What you describe isn't Pking, it's just people fighting who don't know where Al Kharid is...

well...my last name is Ostrowidzki. My first account was hacked and banned (it was called Ostrowidzki), therefore the name was not available :(. I just put 1 at the end, and now it's Ostrowidzki1...lol
