Re: I have lost what could not be lost...hope, is lost.
As far as the original poster goes, I know the "Sofa Kings" were all taken out two years ago, so you should be glad that you avoided detection for as long as you did.

Sofa Kin What was a funny name, but as others have said, it was only a matter of time before they busted you.
The new name is stupid, and it definitely is a rip against Wii owners.

Re: I have lost what could not be lost...hope, is lost.
I pretty surprised Wiitards Suck wasn't already taken, seems like a fairly straightforward name compared to most I see these days. They really need to recycle the names of the hundreds of thousands that have been taken but not used since the 360 launched. It's not quite as bad as on PSN where even the most ridiculous names you can think of have already been used but it's getting there.

I was pissed when I lost "The Surgeon" since I stalled on getting a 360.

Re: I have lost what could not be lost...hope, is lost.
In my defense, I was caught off-guard by being booted in the middle of my Tiger 10 game. I couldn't continue or do anything until I made a name, and that's tough being on the spot like that, lol. Everything I tried was already taken so I just started typing in random names and WiiTards Suck was the first thing that I put in that wasn't taken...Hell, even Rabid Beaver was taken??? Maybe I shoulda went with "XtremeSk8r420" or something? I'm not real happy with the name either, and once I think of one that I really like I'll probably change it. I just wanted to finish my game, which of course I couldn't because it restarted to the menu screen anyhow, sigh.

The Op probably got reported by someone who he nailed online.

Re: I have lost what could not be lost...hope, is lost.
That's why I'm bummin' so bad, most people didn't get it, which was cool by me. It was always funny to hear people wording it out while waiting in a lobby, then finally get it, lol. My buddy at work didn't get it for the last 2 years. I told him today about what happened and he was confused as to why they banned it. Funny shit, I'm gonna miss it.

Re: I have lost what could not be lost...hope, is lost.
While the stupid part of your statement is your opinion, you really have no reason to say it DEFINITELY was a rip on Wii owners, afterall you didn't choose the name so therefore you can't speak on the context and intent behind it. I swear people take this console shit WAY to seriously.

But what the hell do I know -- I own both a Wii and a 360 and I don't feel superior about either.
Except compared to those lame-o PS3 owners.

Re: I have lost what could not be lost...hope, is lost.
Can I suggest a new name?
"Hope is Lost"
"Hope is Lost"





I've seen the name pop up a bunch of times when you came online, but I never really thought about it.
