Some change their screen names often; I did it just once back in 2010. Well not even changed, actually, just created another. I had 2 internet egos since then, and nobody has a clue who was my other. I dropped the other via e-suicide. When? I'm not telling.

Also because I realized I'm an actual cat. Yes.
I might be insane.

I have been using ItsDevin for as long as I can remember .. atleast 15 years . and im yet to find a game where the name has already been taken .. so since its been a faithful name to me I continue to respect it by always choosing it .. I guess it my sort of Good Luck token .

as an active service member in the Armoured Corps of canada . I also have .. ItsDevin . stenciled onto the hatch of my tank.

This is a fun thread to read every couple days. I really enjoy the effort and creativity that some people shared when creating the persona they will use in games. Makes me feel about as creative as Taco Bell. :lol:

One time my name was Rambo, because taking a Hunchback in with lasers and machineguns was so fun.

My second one was Motherf**king Beserker.(And yes, I'm dead, dead serious. You can ask my friends.)

The name was Pasteuriser but everyone called me Past over vent so now im so used to it i use that for every other game if any other cow related game comes out ill probably revert it to its full glory but until then its just Past.

I was inspired by reading War and Peace when just a little kid. I wanted a name that was unique and reusable in any setting. Nowadays when I search myself I find nobody else.

The first time I used it as a tag may have been in Princess Maker 2.

The main problem I have is that lots of things have a maximum of 12 characters for a name.

The rest of the details are History.

Used this nick for pc-games since I read the WH40K novel Kill Team and was inspired by the term "Fraghead";
one who lives/loves to frag and strives to do it over and over again...

seems fitting...
