you mean like xxxvvquickscopekingxxxvvxx? yeah. you should probably kick him.

[incinerator950]

It depends. Some philosophical referenced names or mythos names tend to either be legitimately good, or good in the sense they can troll people without half the skill to back up something. Some people with ridiculous names and actually sound like they're left to leach off their family and play games almost every day while consuming vast amounts of Cannabis and shrooms every so often usually can play better because that's all they do. People who try to sound like they're out of the ghetto or have trashy sniper or elite soldier names are generally people who have trashy playstyles.

No one here would suspect I was in the top 30 for both Dead Space 2, Section 8 Prejudice, and in the top 10 in ACFA for some time. For the most part, people see me as a pyro or a jackass.

I know how you feel. Although my username (which is my gamertag) sounds like a three year old's, I'm actually more mature than a lot of people I play with. They're even shocked that I turned 16 about a month ago

[ElementL09]

Not really.

[Drummernate]

Anybody with "quickscopez", "pro" or anything of that sort gets kicked.

100% of the time they suck so badly that they ragequit on wave 3.

God forbid they ever have any kind of "ProQuickscopez"...

I have been known to cringe once in a while when entering a public lobby seeing the names some users have.

I find anything with "someone the KILLER" is a bad sign.

Anyone else find any naming stereotypes?

Normally i dont judge people by their names, but the likes of "DuckMySick98", "PwnsUHard" or "asfgpoargm" i generally dont regard very highly untill they prove themselves.

Same goes with their voices on mic: Anything with a Y-chromosome and with a higher pitch than my little sister has to work hard to prove himself. Be it in verbal skills, strategic or combat i dont care about, but untill they do, i value them as high as dirt.

I'm kind of surprised that people don't use the same name for the forum as they do for Origin, XBox Live, ME3, Steam et al.

I do.

The terrifying implication is that there are 97 other people who have that name.

I do.

I like flipping the "Goose" in my GT to "Deuce," implying that it is second.  Especially since it rhymes.

[ParatrooperSean]

What about names like Paratrooper?

I played a game with someone named The CoD GoD yesterday.

He ragequit in wave 1 after being killed by a trooper.

Typical

I'm a terrible player, but you can't tell that from my tag. At least, I hope not.

[Kel Riever]

I don't know that a player is bad, per se, based on their name. But you can generally judge dispositions, and if you see something like az*h*le, and you get in a match with that, don't expect sugar to roll off his tongue. Dumb names meant to circumvent the obvious rules for gamertags are a reason I leave a lobby. Just don't want to deal, no matter how good they are.

Surely peaceloving Rastafarians don't play games like these?

Just not so sure if "potheads" make good squadmates

They make the best ones.

Ok, because of this thread, I'm now very curious about what the rest thinks of my ID:
I'm called HK-A6A7...
What does it tells you?

[Variasaber]

Keywords to watch out for: knife, scope, scrub, xX, Xx, }{, anything that normally ends in "ers" but has been misspelled to end in "az" (as in "killaz"), dong, 420, yolo, shepard, killstreak, killer, dragonmaster, doomlord, kickass.
This is more of a shooters-in-general list than one for just ME3 MP. I will retract any and all of these if presented with a sufficiently skilled player with one of those words in their name.

This thread reminds me how much I hate the sound of the word "quickscope," having played COD quite extensively... (I was playing MW3 regularly until I tried ME3 MP and got hooked from there on out)

On Origin I'm CaptainTroper. Not sure what that indicates (though many people misread it as CaptainTrooper, to the extent that I want to change it to something less ambiguous and more silly).

I haven't heard it since high-school, but as soon as I read "Vorpal Sword" it just popped back into my head for some reason. I always seem to retain the most random and least useful things I learn in school

It's a two-fer, actually. The poem has been a favorite since grade school, and there's a high-level magic item in D&D called a vorpal sword. When it came time to generate a gamer tag, my Dungeon Master's Guide happened to be nearby, and it seemed apropos.

[guitarsniper]

nah, although I'd be interested to know how people would judge my throwing in a bunch of the Fibonacci sequence (yoda112358) and my friend throwing in the first bit of e (2718, not gonna give the rest of his username for privacy reasons).

[Sinapus]

Hm. Usually the ones that sound a bit... boastful leave me feeling a bit dubious about their veracity.


Though it does remind me of one time I was playing a game called Nettrek and one of the players decided to use "a little girl" as a callsign while some others used some of those boastful ones. Led to the kill display showing things like:

DeathDealer was kill 1.35 for a little girl
Slayer (+4 armies) was kill 2.84 for a little girl
etc..., etc...

Haven't seen anything like that on ME3 MP yet, but will probably expire from laughter if I do.

I named my 360 profile "Robot Lucas" about five years ago, never thinking that years later I'd be stuck with it as a gt haha.

I aint going to pay to change it though....

(EVERYONE says "ROBERT Lucas" though, drives me crazy haha.)
