Guest TaDaraCampbell Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 We all notice the epidemic of numbers and letters in Runescape names, having to be added as people already have such a name. Originality of names are becoming scarce. What has happened to original names? If you have numbers (and/or) letters that you had to add because someone had already thought of the name before you, have you ever checked the hiscores of the original name, the one without letters or numbers added, just to find that none of the skills of this account are ranked? What has happened, did these people just make accounts and forget about the game? Were they banned? Have they not raised skills? These are such questions that I have wondered. What do you believe has happened? And do you think you have an original name? ~Tad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drawde_3 Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Exactly the story for me. "Drawde does not feature in the highscores..." A mad scientist in the attic, the owner is a vampire that dwells in the basement, a witch, skeletons, ghosts....And you thought YOUR neighbors were weird!

mario_sunny Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I never put numbers in my usernames unless they 'fit in' with the words. Here are some of my accounts: -mario sunny(main member) -the lonely 9(wcing pure free) -c00ked loby(def pure free) -a puppie(mage pure free) -egg trader(trader free) By popular demand, this signature is back- however I currently do not have a blog up at the moment and if I did I wouldn't update it. Sorry, the sig links to nowhere :( . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexek Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I tried so many words.. but to no avail they were taken. Yes, I did check in the highscores as you said, and saw no such name.. so Purepure4774 was born. :) Purepure4774 (Main, soon member) Xamorak Hell (Merchanter/Pure) Xuthix Hell (Merchanter/Pure) Xara Hell (Merchanter/Pure) Pure4774 (Merchanter/Pure) All my pures are merchanters as well as pures because I don't believe in drop-trading.

I can just see you being threatened by a wharf or jetty because you're a teleporter. Yes, I can see a large wooden wharf uprooting itself from the shore, walking over to you and slapping you in the back of the head for teleporting.:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penguin_7945 Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Eh, my first acct was Gamerpenguin. I left here for a bit to try WoW. It was BORING AS HELL -.-, too much grinding and same old boring quests and such hours and hours of playing to be able to get to lvl 40; and to even think of getting to lvl 60 to do high-content raids. So when I came back, my 'friend' had stolen it :boohoo: . Or someone who wasn't my friend, how the hell should I know. So anyway my old pass was changed. I tried a bunch of cool names, none of which worked (quite obviously so). So now I've gone with Penguin 7945. AND I WILL KILL YOU ALL once i'm not a "t00tahl n3wbsz" anymore. \ But I've quite literally made this acct about ten minutes ago. w00t? not as long as you guys are lvl 10000000000000000 :ohnoes: Those who live by the sword will be shot by those who don't.

TateModern Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Luckily nobody actually likes art museums so practically all of the names I want are not in used. However, all of my other RPG names are "Neharma" which is elven for star. Miracle of Miracles, Neharma is taken yet the user has noooo skills... I hoped you enjoyed my post. If not, you may wish to jot down the name below and make obscene phone calls. Coming to a big screen near you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tolkien, the author of the "Lord or the Rings" books (and others in same "universe") has invented this language. Actually two forms of Elvish. There are now several dictionaries available, together with gramar rules, etc. My forum name means "the man from the West" - surname of Aragorn in LOTR and my ingame name means "the elf"... both in Elvish, of course :) 103 combat | 1M+ xp in each skill (lvl73) | 1800+ skill total | quest capeLevel 86 herblore, 85 farming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TateModern Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 ^ What he said lol. Elven sound so much nicer than Elvish. I wonder if Elven is a username...
