Heh… I always wondered what it was for! No really, with all their technology, what possible need for an antenna is there? Heck, just look around now, most new things out don’t even have the classic looking stick thing… cars, cell phones, etc… Ah well, least he wasn’t getting a large package or something.
Alright, this week’s discussion point… Character naming! How do you feel about using or seeing folks using names from tv characters, movies, other games, books, etc for their own toons. I think I’ve seen just about every combination of Boba Fett imaginable. Well, I guess mostly in the beginning stages of SWTOR… I suppose as the game matures in age those types of things kind of fade out. But it’s just like in my WoW days, I think everybody at one time or another had some derivative of Legolas. I’m probably not one to talk, but I guess it seems less annoying if you’re the first one to get the name and use it, rather than having to warp the naming scheme to sort of include it; like Legolas would be ok, but XxLegolossxX is not. Eh, maybe I’m just nit picky like that. >)
My smuggler is rainbowdassh and my bounty hunter is applejack (something repeats)
Yeah, remind me Coff, didn’t we agree to call our SW characters AJ, RD etc? Think about it. Emperor Fluttertine or Pinkie Wan Kenobi
ha! sadly they don’t have any southern sounding voices for the bh… >(
lol, I like those Draco!
Death to ponies!!!!!1111!!!elevenplusshift!!!11
(I had to say/writeit or else I’d burst).
OOOOOO thats a good idea han rainbow! Or apple fett!
rainbow desh?
I avoid the issue altogether by going with my own naming convention for my WoW toons: I end up using the names of musicians… Most of the bands I listen to are from Europe, and Scandinavian at that, so the names fit very well in an RPG setting…
heh, one of the ones I use a lot is Hedwig (from the musical)… think it’s fitting when I have a female toon…
Plus, with most of the stuff I listen to being off most people’s radars, the names are almost always free and clear to put in :)
I do only if i can snag a good one, and not add x’s fing everywhere. I even go to every server, and name my dudes one famous name the first time i play for reserves
lol, I usually queue up a server with all my names asap! like coffinshaker, hedwig, saltybill, etc…
I think it is a fair game until the ” XXXXXDARTHVADERZORZZZXXX1232” type of names….
hmm… darth vaderzorz… i like that one too! XD
It’s OK if you are fairly original about it. The best one I ever saw was someone who had rolled a Bounty Hunter, used the editor to make a passable Han Solo face, used the “Fat” body, and called it ChunkSolo.
I still find the guy on my server with the name “bootyfett” hilarious every time I see em. XD
