Ok uhh the topic is a question that I would like to have clarified. I don't understand why people have a different runeweb name than their charatcer's name in runescape. Now obviously a person may have multiple accounts and the runeweb name is his or her pure or something, but I'm talking about people who just choose a random name for their runeweb account.

for example, and this is just a random name: a person with only 1 runescape account named gladiator has their runeweb name as Gufflejarb. Why do people do it? is it because the name they wanted their runescape account to be got taken?

I don't mean offense in this topic and if you are one of the people who does it that's fine. It's just a question that I would like to have answered.

Makoto D isn't much different from Makoto, nor was it that much in contrast from Makoto_the_Knight.

My (ex)RuneScape character's name is Silva Knight.

When I first registered on RN, my name was Silva Knight.

But after maybe a year, I switched it to Nawzlew.

I got Nawzlew from my real name. My real name is Wilson, backwards is Nosliw, sounded out is Nawzlew. Voila.

I've been using Nawzlew for maybe the past three years now.

Mysticallity has been given away, orginally as a intent of giving something useless to me, but possibly useful to a "girl". Then "she" reveals herself to everyone and tells me how it's been sold to fund her education.

Yep, all is well. But the fact that the purpose of the account was destroyed, the fact that "I should not have given the account away." and the fact that I did not receive anything in return, makes it a pity that an account has gone to waste.

I chose the name Cky back on Runenews because I was only 19 and didn't know any better seeing as I was like level 60.

I just stuck with it I guess, it's an easy name to use.
