In L2 people used the name llllilliliiililllilillll For it's functionality when PKing people people wouldn't be able to target you using commands. But it was also a bitch for your friends to PM you haha.

D on iccup stands for diamond in SC2

Yeah maybe, but at least he made the name well known, and it isn't just random gibberish.

Not really it's just one decent word and his clan tag.

  • "Dividers" ie x in "DarkXRose"
  • "Decorators" ie xXx in "xXxSPAWNxXx" (especially amusing in SC2 since no name is "taken" and you can't use the excuse that "Spawn" was unavailable)
  • Alternate caps used as decorators ie "AzNgOdKiNg"
  • Uncommon alt code characters ie "Fa†ali†y" (uncommon now at least, since nobody reads books)
  • Numbers used to represent sounds or letters ie 8 in "sk8erboi789"
  • References to darkness or satanism ie "DarkShadowLord"
  • References to Dragonball Z main characters, ie "SSJ5G0G3T4"
  • References to pop culture-ized Viking literature ie "s2Loki" (not as applicable in SC2 due to campaign hero)
  • References to FF7 main characters ie "XXS3PH1R0THXX"
  • References to race ie "PiNoYbAlLa"
  • Hints at in-jokes that are not in-jokes, ie "bobcat420"
  • References to drug use, ie "xXKushKrushXx"
  • Hints at gaming prowess, ie "elitesniper"

Use of numbers to substitute as letters within names pisses me off too, but that's not really "tryhard," I guess.

Personally I think random names involving Obama are straight up baller status.
now run into the setting sun, and suffer, but don't mess up your hair.

Yea i still hate names like "DarkSoldier" or something like that, as well as the XxXxX names and l33t speak.

But what i hate most is the names that begin with "i" like iXxxx. Sooo annoying, and a lot of people use it nowadays

Steam lets you use characters that aren't part of the normal latin alphabet, and you ended up with people using the Greek rho as a p or chi as an x. Then they'd pick accented letters over regular ones and it was the funniest thing when you'd go against a team that used character maps.

my name was so classic on XBL, I used the auto name generator and it gave me "sadmushroom." Not knowing that this was a "loser's" ID, i had to play through hundreds of games with xXdArKsLaYeRXx and SSJVeGeTa look alikes teasing me for a silly id, ohhh adolescence.

also, i love how some people in CoD1 and 2 put more effort into making their IDs and clan tags then actually playing and practicing. i recall one conversation with some RL friends where i told them that people would remember them if they were really good, not if they had cool looking names and colors. they then told me that nobody wants to to remember an ugly name, and booted me out of vent..
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable
