Just replace some letters with numbers. What's the difference? yeah but, its like wat i sed wit the example 'corparel punishment' its alot better that than 'corparel punishment0098543456789876534567' well, maybe that was a BIT exagerated, but thats not the point of this post.

If you don't mind, could you please edit your title to not include all caps. It's really annoying.

I chose a non-generic name. Something that sounded cool that no one else would think of. So I got the name I wanted. You can't really expect to get something like "Master Chief," since there are going to be thousands of other members who want the same name. If you don't get the name you want, perhaps you should think of something innovative.

Actually, you got it right the first time. The question was if we got the name we wanted, not if our intended name was taken. We go by the question on the poll, not the one that is the subject...

I don't like getting numbers in my names, i just don't. So, for example one of my Screen names is Noninertial (Not a bungie name) just because it was original.

Yup, I got the name I wanted, the name I wanted back then anyway. there was a time where I wanted a different account. But as time went by I began to like my name again, and now I'm so used to it, I can't even imagine having another account name.

'bacon greese' wasn't valid. So add my favorite number "15" and a random number "21".

I wanted to see the universe, so I stole a Time Lord and I ran away.

Not getting the screen name you want is a common “thing” for Internet users. I’m amazed I got even got DragonEyes, but then there are not a lot of girls on b.net so..

Got the bungie.net name I wanted but someone has the gamer tag with the "X" capitalized. I wish there was a way to find out who maybe offer him a swap or something.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

Hmmm...I believe long ago, on some site/thingus, I wanted just Dark Wolf. However it was taken, so I added the suffix "00" and I've been using it ever since.

I'm not that active, but never dead.

I wanted Alexander.

Sighness

Indubidubly. Banana.

I got mine. Heheh, I don't think someone would ever think of mine =D Then I checked Google and got some rather...odd results O_o;

Mourne not your comrades who must dwell / too strong to strive -
Within each steel-bound coffin of a cell, / Buried alive;
But rather mourne the apathetic throng / The cowed, and the meek -
Who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong / And dare not speak.

When I first signed up, I wanted aku (or was it Aku?). I didn't get it so I used aku88(which is also my tag). But then my computer broke, and when I got a new one I used a different email address. Instead of trying to figure out how to get back into B.net with the new email, I just signed up again. that time, the name I wanted was available. I guess I got lucky.

So even though I answered yes to your poll, my actual answer is no, since I didn't get the name I wanted the first time
