Title: My struggle with ADD
Post by: Aquabat on June 29, 2006, 07:33:26 AM
I have been playing this game off and on since 2001, and everytime I come back, I struggle with my in game ID. I think I may have some sort of attention deficit disorder. So, I would just like to re-introduce myself to those who may have flown with me before.

You may have seen me as any of the following:

gollum (flew with the Nightmares, even in Air Warrior as gol)
krieger (short lived name as a knight)
zomb (another short lived name)
gollum (again, this time flying with the Nazgul )
oobi (another short one as a knight)

and now I am:
Aquabat (flying for the Knights)

I am hoping by doing this out on the forums, it will help me keep this name in place. I am notorious for wanting to change my ingame id. (Just ask CptHowdy, he works with me and we talk about possible names all of the time).

I would like to all of those I have flown with in the past, and apologize for my sudden appearances and disappearances.

Aquabat, you (were) the same Oobi I'm supposed to be flying in the 2v2 with?  If so, keep me updated as your changes occur lol...  PM box I guess.

S!

I've had about 9 or 10 IDs so far. From my perspective, you're actually keeping things in check.

Im going to reply, and I think...oh, wait, something is on TV.

Stick to your handle if you like folks to recognise you, otherwise get used to being a stranger all the time. My handle was not my 1st pick, but its what I have been since coming to AH, and so I keep it.

Its just a game handle, I think maybe your putting too much emphasis on it, imho. Just play and have fun.

...Btw I like "Aquabat" because it is what many of them are definately not, and thats unique.

...keep it.

Ok thats long enough change it to something better.

Went from Karaya2 to Karaya (after my wife said "I'm paying the bills and HTC has some messed up accounting".  I lost 5000FP, 10000BP, and 15000GV perks.  She wasn't paying the bill, I pay it now automatically)

I don't understand the need to change CPIDs, not that it matters either way of course.

I chose "ed64" in 1996 since we only had 4 characters and "edbt" didn't seem appropriate. When WB2.0 (1998?) came out I became Edbert and have been so ever since.
