Why do Some people put numbers in their names?

[woopidoo2]

I was 12 when I started my first account, woopidoo. I got hacked because the 'hacker' (A Jagex staff impersonator) threatened to ban me if I didnt give him my pass. So I did, lost full mith and 30k. Months of work for nothing :lol:

 

 

 

I was (and I still am) very bad at creating new nicknames, so I just entered woopidoo2 and ofcourse, that one wasnt taken \

[Mak_1027]

My name is a combo of my initials and my birthday ...I have used this same name for many years, on many forums and in several games. So I chose it again because it is easy to remember, and I figured if anyone I knew from the good ole days also played RS, they would recognize my name. If it offends you or you think I am stupid or not creative, then that is your problem. If you judge people you don't know by their username in a game ...hmmm...sounds like a personal problem. :roll:

[Singh]

My name is all numbers

 

522901

[Drakolord7]

I did because 7 is my favorite number.

[guitar_god_2007]

i put 0 at the end coz koolcookie was "taken" and it was one of them options, so i went for the top one

[Lem2222]

Lem is my name 2 is my favorite number. lem was taken, lem2 was taken, lem22-I frogot the password, lem222-messed up on that one, lem2222-stuck with it because I didn't want to restart another account.

[Trollface]

I originally wanted the name Goldblade, but f course, it was already taken so I chose the top option, Goldblade29. There was also someone named Goldblade59 on Tutorial island. I would not see him for another few months, until we were both level 60, where we fought, until he teleported.

[Zoov]

I made sure to not have numbers in my name. My characters were Colonel (awesome, huh? I lost the pass), then Tunki, then Zoov, whom I now play on.

[drgnslyer_15]

i only put 15 in my name because i was born on the 15th

[Ollyc3]

The 3 in my name is simply there because its my fave number, lol

[11the_mask_1]

I have no idea... >.<

 

 

 

I made my first (and only) RS account with the help of a good friend. Al my suggested names didn't work and I went to the loo, when I came back my account was created... Lool...

 

 

 

I think it had something to do with that name suggestion Jagex if a name is already taken. Idk... It was almost 4 years ago >.>

[Aresgodowar]

gotta love giving old posts new life :)

 

 

 

my original accounts were all original but i kept forgetting their names and passwords. so in the end i ended up using my login number and pass from my freshman year in high school(1242631666). since then ive recovered my earlier account aresgodowar, but he is a noob compared to my "numbers guy" as little noobs call me. :)

[sohkmj1]

I forgot the pass 2 days after creating the original sohkmj (which i recovered 2 years later as part of my 2 year playing anniversary gift, call it that if you want.) So i thought: What's 0 + 1? 1 of course!

 

So it went into my name.

 

Not that anyone calls me by my name with the 1 in it XD

[Jimmyh7]

I couldn't think of an original name. :P

[War_Eagle777]

I originally wanted the name Goldblade, but f course, it was already taken so I chose the top option, Goldblade29. There was also someone named Goldblade59 on Tutorial island. I would not see him for another few months, until we were both level 60, where we fought, until he teleported.

 

 

 

Gold Blade59 is one of my closest RS friends now :lol:

 

 

 

But idk why i picked 777

[Tom_Servo]

Well, the name I really wanted was just plain ol' Mini Me. I came up with it because I was watching Austin Powers on TV when I made my account. Anyway, Mini Me was taken and one of the auto-alternatives was Mini Me234. I thought it had a nice ring to it, so I chose it. And that's all, my first and only account was made!

[Star_Fox]

i tried to see if Clifford was available. but the results were in numbers so i chose a random name and it had the number 252.

[GibberEsh]

I don't have any numbers cause I didn't want to sound like a clone of someone or get confused. I like my name even though I picked it when I was like 11 lol.

 

 

 

Nice 4 month bump btw

[Fromfirst2Last1987]

i feel that people with numbers in their names on games are stupid. all you are doing is copying the original. be creative and think of your own name if one you want is taken.

[InkofDeath]

Skatedog111 - Skatedog was from a book, and it was taken, so 111 was available, took it.

 

 

 

Inkofdeath, I didn't need to. ^_^

 

 

 

Mageof Pain2 > Mageof Pain got screwed up.

 

Mageof Pain3 > I disliked p2p pking entirely, started a new mageof pain series for f2p.

 

Mageof Pain4 > Got hacked some strange way thus the 4.

 

Mageof Pain5 > Back up.

 

 

 

I really can't create nicknames that well, thus the series. Easy to think of.

[Shadow_Clawe]

Its fun making original names, my first account ever was named Cks21594 :o

 

 

 

My rl friend was 007 :uhh: I wanted to kill him when he lost the pass -.-

[magician_xy]

Magician Xy.

 

 

 

I love how it rolls off my tongue. I named it liked that to be like a title. You know, the regular name is Xy, but he is a magician. Therefore, he is Magician Xy.

 

 

 

I find it amusing that even though my (in-game) name is Xy, everyone calls me Magician. :lol:

[Flodder450]

I first created flodder,it was taken,i selected flodder460,forgot the pass even before tutorial island :oops: ,then i created flodder450,which i still play on 8-) :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: =P~ =D> :pray:

[Made0f12une]

Why, to replace letters of course!

[hoffman44]

I tried to use the name "hoffman" for my first runescape account, but it was taken so i put in hoffman44 and it worked. Now i use hoffman44 for everything.
