They are on their way to legend rank  :)

Why'd you cross out your name on everything?  :ph34r: 

 

Forum shows it.

Same rank

Same tank

Same GS

I don't think it's about being creative or sounding badass... its simply just a name that's not supposed to have any meaning. just look at how "creative" your country is huh... brutal kangeroo? tigerswan? blackwater? golden unicorns? electric strawberry? red diamond?  screaming eagles? cactus??  :blink:  ffs they named an attack helicopter "gender" , that's definately stupider than calling a tank "pencil"

You're right about that. But I'm offended because I sexually identify as a moose.  :angry:

If you pick a good ''random word nickname'' It can look scary

Yes because we all know a legend that has spent money to change him name to something dumb probably has spent his money on everything in the shop at least 5 times... including the paints.

Some 1 word nicknames are a little strange. It's almost like they've gone through the entire English dictionary until they come across any one word that is available as a nickname.

 

Still, they're better names than "OverpoweredKiller_the_dark6969" or something along those lines.

Yeah but I think people could still do better than Pencil, especially if you are willing to spend 18 USD (or some equivalent) for that.

It's not about having a deep meaning or a cool word - it's about having a short, neat and easily memorable name. To me, and to a lot of other people such names are the perfect choice to be respected and recognised.

 

Due to the fact that nicknames get taken, shorter names that have no numbers, replaced letters, sound good and mean something are hard to come by. And formatting it like a real name (capital letter followed by lowercase) is neat.

 

To be fair, a lot of gang nicknames and army nicknames also seem random at first.

 

Mine is pretty simple - I used to be Mafioso, but I didn't want to be associated with a criminal organization when I became admin, and everyone called me Maf anyway, so...

Maf is part of the Mafia confirmed

A game I used to play had AI's with some pretty weird names. I copied down a few:

 

OozyMouse...MinimalGenie...OliveRanger...OnwardLizard...SpeedyPopcorn...CabbageHash...WaitedDiamond...HappyVirus to name a few. 

 

Someone could have a few accounts referring back to each other: Pen....Pencil....Notebook....Paper

SpeedyPopcorn will be a more memorable name and a cooler name than Pencil or Paper.

Most of these guys are Egogun users and they don't have the creativity to come up with something better than a standard word.

I've seen them changing names from male to female type and then back to what they started with; not my money lol.. the mrs.- typed nicknames are all dudes anyway.

 

Get real man and come up with something better than Proud, Suggest, Real or Meaning.

Best nickname change that I know of, is Dieselplatinum; that's a solid and creative nickname.

Alright that's the rant so far, now get back at your daily routine of showing off your fancy animated paints in Moon Silence with your short professional nickname.

This. 

 

Everything above here is true. I was actually about to add on to my original post of how Legends are also adding Mrs. or Princess to their name so that they are dudes pretending to be girls. I guess it's so that they don't feel single anymore.

Ikr, these nicknames like: "Maf" and "Hexed" are just pale >_>

Oh come on, isn't it better than...

 

 

 

And then you have the console universe, with my dude running around with the CrazyChicken3000 name tag. I think the one-word movement just... happened in Tanki Online. One guy names himself to a cool name, and everybody else follows.

My nickname is completely original! And i will never change it. :ph34r:

Flexy sounds better, but there's no slingshot turret yet.

 

Just kidding

Corrected.  ;)

Although yes, Egoguns do have those kinds of names.
