I started playing with pong and Atari and never stopped, however I barely play nowdays since my wife hates it when I'm playing games. Also these last few months since my accident I can't sit at the computer very long.


To be honest i think it should just be for big contributers (like you) and not a thing for every guy with 100 posts, but i understand where you are coming from there. The mods could make it a "you take it or leave it". If you dont want it you can have it removed
I was at a forum where the Mods would change a person's username once a year. If this nickname thing was to come into fruition they do something similar.

I think that system will work :)

I am hooked on Dota 2 and various other games much to the dismay of my parents that want me outside or whatever the most of the day.

Should i make a thread in the awards and nomination forum for awarding nicknames with a few notes:

-the nickname should be related to their activities on the forum or collection

-for active or notable members

-nicknames could be awarded at the discretion of staff

-people could be nominated by other members

Those are my ideas? Anything to add or comment?

Hey guys and gals.

I thought it would be a cool idea to give more of the regulars (people who are active on the forum ) a nickname relating to their online contribution and habits, for example:


SumoNinja SumoNinja : Lounge potato.


Those are just some ideas. You guys have any suggestions. Also please vote
