Help me pick a gamer tag

DeebaserDeebaser on my way to work in a suit and a tieAhhhh...come on fucking guyRegistered User regular
edited July 2010 in Help / Advice Forum
Okay, so I got a brand new xbox today and need to set up a new gamer ID. 'Deebaser' is taken by some dingleberry that capitalizes the 'B' for some fucking reason.

I hear that having numbers in your name makes you a 'twat' so Im looking to avoid that. What do yall reccommend?

    I switched from Darkewolfe to Digitalwolfe when I stole the name from myself and couldn't remember the login info. Do you not have any other handles at all? It's kind of a personal preference thing.

    Alternatively, switch to Inurdeebaser.

    You could always prefix it without "PA_" That's what I did with mine.

    Maybe Dabaser/DaBaser if your trying to go for something along the same lines as your PA tag?

    Thanks for the suggestions all.

    Update:

    Every possible variation of deebaser has been taken. :(, so I'm going to go with

    (Verb)Deebaser or (Adjective)Deebaser. I would greatly appreciate any verb or adjective suggestions, preferably an awesome one from a Pixies song.


    Oh yeah, and fuck their autogenerated ones. Microsoft offered "FurryDeebaser" as an alternate.

    Suffixes work well. Deebaser Prime could mark you out as the original, although that's annoying to type in for friend requests.

    Deebaserbot? The Deebaser, etc.

    Is your name based on the Pixies track? Because you could so a tangential thing and call yourself ChienAndalou, for example.

    Having numbers in your name is only twat-like when it's a variation of 69 or 420.

    Nah, it's a symbol that you were lazy when coming up with your name. It's more lazy to have 69 or 420, but yeah.

    No, it's a name you make up in order to play video games online. It has nothing to do with being lazy and more to do with everything (by now) being taken. You should change the name by which you're known on every other social facet of the Internet because a handful of Live mouth breathers are going to look down on your if there is a number in your name?

    Get out more. We're talking about an online gaming service, here. No one who you're going to give a flying goose about is going to care if there is a number beside your name.

    The only time normal, likable people are going to look down on your gamertag is when it is a variation of drug references, racism, or the like.
