Title: What is your Aces High call sign?
Post by: FLOOB on April 16, 2014, 02:36:59 AM
What is your Aces High call sign? And why don't you use it as your forum name? Is it because you're ashamed? Is it because you're too lazy to change your name on the forum? Or is just because you're a dumas?

My name in game is Grizz, I don't use it on the forums so FlyinFin stays up at night wondering, rewatching every fight we ever had, trying to connect the dots, unable to sleep.

My in-game name is RedBull. I took the forum name Latrobe because I'm a drunk idiot. Don't be fooled by that RedBull1 guy in-game, he's an impostor who's trying to ruin my name.  :(

To my knowledge, the only way to change a BBS name is to start a new account, so several just stick with what they have. 

Oh, and I'm Banshee7 in game, too.

Who was my in game name once, but then again I've had many.  :)

On occasion, one must have the ability to change one's in-game name, for example when one is shamed due to being caught HOing their FPH's best friend.  :uhoh

Shame does wear off, in time, allowing one to revert to their original good name, which in my case is Midway.  :aok

I was lazy and chose to use the same nick for both ingame and here. Although there's been variations in pronouncing and transliterating it. I've sometimes heard it pronounced it as 'Pissman', many times while falling down in smithereens I feel like a 'Bits-man' and the latest variation is 'Beachman (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,361126.msg4797375.html#msg4797375)'...

I use my call sign both in-game and on BBs. Have had a few in-game name changes since I started playing for various reasons. Not "ashamed or a dumas" as you put it or even lazy.  One call sign I had was kicked out by Skuzzy for being "distasteful" as it were.

My original nickname was Dictonius back in the European Air War, I still use it when I occasionally fly IL-2. I also used it at the very first time I played Aces High. This was my first two weeks somewhere in the year 2002-3. After that I had to come up with different nicknames like Dictor, Dictof, Dict0 etc. when playing Aces High on and off. The evolution of the name ended in Tikto that I have used for years now. It doesn't mean anything. As didn't the original Dictonius. It was one of those moments when logging in for the very first time you just had to come up with something - fast, cause the will to play was strong.

Elmer Diktonius was a finnish poet, I changed one letter thus without knowledge practising the logic of différance (appereance is different where as the spoken word is the same).

started Aces High in tour 52 first callsign was USURPER

in Fighter Ace (I played for about a month before AH mostly offline) I was MORTIS but it was taken when I joined AH...so went with the awesome name of USURPER from the Conan books....

I took a break and came back...MORTIS was free so I took that name for awhile...

when I joined the boards in 07 I used the name INK because thats what I do.

I have taken a few names a few times...

USURPER
MORTIS
INK
INK69
1BADSHOT
BUDO
JETSOM
