I was just wondering.

If your 'friends' get angry over a name change, would you really consider them your friends?

Just seems like such a trivial thing to get angry about.

It's this sort of psychological tendency that's unavoidable, people will tend to gain a bond to a short 10-letter string, and when you overwrite that string completely with a totally different set of letters, they don't react very nicely.

Simply type a randomly picked name and consider it your last name.

1. Do not change your name to a japanes-y sonding series of random syllables with no relation to your previous name. That is fucking annoying.

Romaji*

And it's not annoying as fuck, it's the same as having a name in any other language. You wouldn't bitch at someone who has a language preference for their name would you?

Even if you're addressing the weeaboos who originally didn't have Japanese names, people can have their own choices. Having a name with romaji isn't annoying/offensive to the general public, only a range of people, therefore I think this is a bad suggestion.

Changing it to that would actually improve your nickname, so I say go for it!

Esupanitix wrote:

For once I agree with Gladi

Putting "osu" in your name just ruins it entirely. If I HAVE to explain, it's because that's the game you're playing, which means you didn't even have the "originality" to remember a favorite series. It's unoriginal but it's better than using the name of the franchise of the website you're using in your username, that's for sure. Imagine if I were on YouTube and I put my username down as "YouTuber". How bad do you think that would be?

I'm sad

I recall when I changed to Pyro Jack and got changed back again.
I mean, some people changed to names that have nothing to do with their previous names, like

peppy said I can't change my name because I'm well known or something. Whatisthisidon'teven
I can't change to Pyro Jack again becase there's a user with that name, and I don't really want that name anymore.
I wanna be called Nayuki-chan

Rena-chan is my previous name, hence why it was changed back.
You can't use me as an example, it's silly !

Why mine doesn't show "Previously known as Teta" anymore then? Would be better than changing name again~

And Ekaru, it's silly to change back some and not all. It's not fair.

All of the examples you posted are of either not well-known users, or took place after the first week name changes were allowed, after the rollback occurred and there were less chaos. That's all there is to it.

Plus, it doesn't matter if it was after the first week or not, people should only change their nicknames if they have a good reason to.

TRY to make sure that your name is one of the only of its variety. If everyone goes around pulling ten letters out of a Scrabble Tile bag, we're going to have a full army of Esupanitixes. And considering how I act, you DON'T WANT THAT.

Use terms in your name that can be used as derogatory against you
