Animation Source Forums

I have been seing lots of similar *nicknames*(name you use in BaltoSource) it's a bit confusing so far there are about 22Baltos, 6 foxes
65 wolfs, 5 stars, 9 Aleus, 6 whites, 14 Jennas, 9 Kodis, 12 Silvers, 24 dogs and 4 Nights some of these words are being used repetivly (Sp?) some names are so similar like Night Fox Night Fang and Night Wolf, there are even 2 Lone wolfs also 2 White Wolfs so my suggestion is making not so similar nicknames and since this site is growing I think it will become even more confusing (and a bit of a problem) if people keep using the same words on their nicknames but let's keep in mind this is only a suggestion I don't want to get people to stop using those words but if they use them put them in diffent ways or something also wanted to say about approppiate nicknames I've seen nicknames like Deathsdoor or Hate.

When I chose my username, the first thing that came to my mind is that I wanted it to be unique...And I believe this is one of the most important thing.
People using names such as "balto", "wolf" etc...are good to be confused with someone else. They should at least add a number.
But I think it's good as it is, I don't want to have to change 150 usernames of people here...And besides, most people would not want to change it.

Silver snow, as I said somewhere else, use "," and "." when you write messages...This will be much more easy to read. Make sentences!

I totally agree with that. Make your name unique, Peoples! When I first came here, My name on the Balto Source Shoutbox was simply 'Mountain', Now it has developed into 'DarkMountain' as my personality has changed and I have gotten older. Why I picked 'Mountain' for my name? Well, Because I want to become a scenery photgrapher when I grow up, And in the mountains is where I get some of my most brilliant shots. So next time you sign up on a board or something similiar to this, Really think about your username before you enter it. Think about things that you like doing or something that you are into and then put a word similiar to it! Its really not that hard.

Hope I helped!

I agree that people should have more imagination when thinking and choosing a nickname it makes life easier so you don't get some one confused with another person.

I've had my username for over a year now and I don't get much confusion.

ya agree with having pepole to add a number but I also agree with steet beacuse it is a pain to change 150 usernames (and you forgot to add 1 goose)

Ah........maybe that is a little confused,but for me,I don't feel that.I think we use those names just because we like them,so we needn't change them.

I'll never change my nickname. I have two other nicknames, Xylene and EJ, and that's it. People get confused too easily, so it's better to choose a name you're positive you will stick with that is at least a little unique. I think I'm the first out of two Ravens I've ever heard of, so I don't have too many confusion problems.

Well I have 2 Nicknames, and my real name that I only use sometimes. My nicknames are Mikazuki (used on most sites and forums.) and BayJumper (Used on just two other places.) And then Harley, my real name, used here.

I don't get confused with my nickname because I had it for a year & a half now.

I'm thinking of changing my username to something else because I'm starting to think my username sounds a bit too vague and I notice some other people at other sites and forums have the same thing or close to it.

Well I'm really the only active White Wolf

Well what can i say people wanted to have balto related names.
And usualy some people like the dark and make names with night (not all i dont say x or y did this because of this) .
I think my nickname is unique, even if it derived from 3 others lol.
But with time all will find a unique nickname that fits them, it isnt about imagination but personality.

I like my name now,both Blackwolfspirit and vikinwolf,see,there are more balckwolf and wofl spirit here,so I changed my name.And there is a word that no one'd use it in their nickname.........viking, Ask me to change my "wolf" away.........haha.NO WAY!

yea i see what you mea, my name balto. is extremly close to balto, but the other person(balto) hasn't been on since march so i think im fine, but i don't think we should take the names off people that already have them, just make sure noone else does it , but if they realy what that name what would we do?
