Plain and simple. How much of an influence do you think your username has on how popular you become in the Graal community?  

Idk if NA. is a cool nick name, but it doesn't make me popular  

Having the name Mangsi never got me anything more than questions about what it means

I think the only thing it has an impact on is first impressions.  

If it's unique and memorable, then its special.

If its some overused rapper name or something than whatever.  

The reason I'm asking is because I distinctly remember in 2010 I was walking around in Onnet town, and directly to the right of the statue there was some random girl who said, "pm me if you want to be popular!" So I messaged, "how?" And she said, "first you need to have a cool nickname, it needs to be short and it needs to sound cool." I tapped on my character, and I stared at my name "TWIZ" for about 2-3 minutes, just thinking about it. I'm pretty sure my profile had a black background, and I remember just saying my name out loud. I then thought, wow, I love my name for the simple fact that it was derived from my friends, my first graal friends. Their names were Sic and ShadowAssassin, and I chose Twizzler-1 as mine when I made my account. They called me Twizzler for a while, but soon just started calling me Twiz, so I changed it to TWIZ, because I thought all caps looked cool (maybe like a month after downloading Classic). Anyway, I was finished staring at my name, and didn't respond to her message. I was done, and I didn't change it because I liked it the way it was. Now I wonder had I changed it to something short and sweet, if I would have became "popular." I consider that my "Graal Destiny," as it was her who gave me the option to either choose the blue pill or the red pill. I chose the blue pill, and to this day I don't know who my morpheus is. Hell, it could be one of you guys.

I know twiz is short, but it's not really what that girl was talking about, as she also gave me a couple examples including admins.

That's a nice story. Only thing I remember about making my name Wolfie is I was banned, and tried to evade the ban via UDID Faker and went by the name Wolfie on that account. I was, for some reason, in a hurry to choose a name and Wolfie, for some reason came to mind lol. From that day, my friends started calling me Wolfie. This was back in early 2012 I believe  

mine just lets people know i have a fine taste in games  

Chrono Trigger is GOAT lol

mm yes, exquisite~  

tho that opinion might change when I get to Xenogear or FF9  

It's more about how you carry yourself.  

Put one letter in your name BUT YOU MUST INCLUDE THE PERIOD IN ORDER TO BE A KOOL KID

so pretty much your name should be something like "X. (Some Kinda Desperate 1k Guild)"

And now you have accomplished something.
