Zachles Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Okay, so we all know that folks from Digital Extremes have a DE tag followed by their name. What happens if, for example, there's two Rebeccas? Is it DERebecca, and then DERebecca_1? This has bothered me for so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haldos Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Surely you have given thought to the possibility of an alias. Not everyone chooses to use their first name, unless you're proposing DESkree's first name is Skree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaKicks Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 What bothers me is the lack of consistency. DE_Skree vs [DE]Megan. Kind of wish they were all [DE]. But a serious answer to your original question - As far as I can tell, they name themselves whatever they want, just like we do. I don't remember who it was, but they were changing their name half a dozen times in a couple weeks. Example: Is Skree his real name? or his handle?

Zachles Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) And there there's Scott, whose in-game handle is Grineeeeer... Scott's just a cover-up, and his real name is Grineeer. What bothers me is the lack of consistency. DE_Skree vs [DE]Megan. Kind of wish they were all [DE]. But a serious answer to your original question - As far as I can tell, they name themselves whatever they want, just like we do. I don't remember who it was, but they were changing their name half a dozen times in a couple weeks. Example: Is Skree his real name? or his handle? I'd assume his handle. If that's his real name, then that's a cool name. And yeah, consistency would be nice. Seeing underscores and numbers in usernames has always maked me cringe.
