What do you guys think sounds cooler?
jShazBot? Or N3W8?

I use the name jShazBot in everything. Since "ShazBot" is usually taken I just add the lowercase j for Jordan, my name.

Now I've been using the name N3W8 on Xbox Live since Halo 2 has been out. (before xbox 360). I was like 12 or 13 when I came up with it and I thought it was a cool way to spell Noob/Newb at the time. I like how it's original and I beat other players to the name. But I'm getting a little tired of it because it's been like 3 or 4 years now I have had the same name and I use jShazBot in pretty much everything else. I'm also getting kinda sick of people saying "Ha! N3W8 your a NEWB!" and calling me "NEW 8" (wtf?)
Some of my friends say I should keep it because it's more Original than jShazBot and others say I should switch to jShazBot because it sounds cooler and I use it in everything else.

What do you guys think?! ^^;
I think I'm going to base my decision off what you guys think.



Wow, I just realized that I posted this in the Fresh Kills Landfill section. T_T
How can I get this moved to the Off-Topic section?

My favorite handle ever belonged to a guy I encountered on PSO:
tom8om8*

He insisted this was merely an alternate transcription of Tom Bomb, but I instantly knew that it really said Tomato Mate (probably a friend of Hamburger Helper).


*Could have also been t0m80m8 or some other combination of 0 and o.

As long as you have "1337, doom, death, killer, Naruto, Bleach, fan, Sephiroth, Sasuke, Inuyasha, Deathnote, shinigami, pwn, pwner, night, dragon, knight, dark, or shadow" in the name, it'll be auto-cool, so don't worry.










But in reality, I'd just go for something original or funny.

For some reason that sounds familiar. Probably ran into someone who had a similar idea regarding 8.

Then you're a nerd, since you said it.

So, who has that rappy pic? It's a tad overdue, as fox-boy has pointed out.

I was known as Shazbot in PSOBB on the third party server before I got banned. Some dude looked up to me on the game because I made a couple of videos showing how I was dodging mods on youtube. Got all the ubers in less than a month before I got careless (told Sleeps I was going back to PSOBB and he hunted me down). Not saying you copied me or nothin' 'cause I copied the Tribes 2 word "Shazbot" when I came up with the name but I did see some guy copying my character and name ingame. Was funny, lol.

They both suck.

Anyway, I was talking about good gamer tags while playing Halo the other day and somebody mentioned his favorite:

Gene Wilder's Hair.


Absolutely amazing.

Pretty much.

N3W8 is about as bad as you can get.

jShazBot is... eh... Sounds like the name of some typical 16 year old "thinks-he's-better-than-everyone-else" kinda guy.

I guess outrider is a lie... or a 16 year old who thinks he is better than everyone.

What? That can't be. I assure you that I have played 12-year-olds in Halo.

Move over, cake. We've got a new meme.
