TL;DR SHORT VERSION AT BOTTOM IN BOLD

Because Section 1 of this operation is going to take a while I'd thought I'd have a blog break. But do feel free to check it all out, the operation is going well.

So I'm wondering whether to change my newgrounds name, my alias. Let me tell you how I chose BlueFlameSkulls. Now when I started on the internet I chose my first name and a series of numbers, I later learnt that numbers in your name is a faux pas. Keep in mind I hadn't made a newgrounds account yet as this is going back to dial up days.

I made a geocities website of Halloween gifs which I pretty much stole off some website. I saw a gif of a skull on fire, specifically blue fire. This is where I chose the name "BlueFlameSkulls". I was on newgrounds before then but not made an account. I wanted to make my own flash so I made some really poor immature flash which was made in windows movie maker and imported into flash (30 day trial).

I had to make an account so I decided now would be the best time to use my new name. It was "blueflameskulls", lower case. The flash was blammed, and this amuses me but someone then had criticized my name. This was the flash and although the reviews haven't saved for some reason there were some. Looking back I have changed a lot, I'm still crap with flash but the way I wrote was way different. I'm quite surprised I managed to find the obituary for that flash.

ONWARD. I kept the name and when I realised I could change my name freely I made the name with upper case for each word. Hence "BlueFlameSkulls". Later I changed my name to "ShitOnMyChest whilst keeping my BFS alias on an alt. It fit me well that name when I started writing shock stories.

It came to a point where we would have a username lockdown and had to choose a name we wanted to keep. So I changed it back to BFS after people telling me I should change it back and here we are now.

I look at this alias and I use it everywhere except certain places where I want to use a more mature alias. I go on gamefaqs rarely but I use a different name. Some of you may know my other aliases on the net anyway. I say 'some' a little strongly.

I use this name on PSN and 360 Live (ish, my alias was took by someone so I had to miss out the 's' on the end). Now imagine you have never heard me and see some guy called "BlueFlameSkulls" on CoD4. You would think it was a 12 year old kid with a D&D or other fantasy world fetish. Considering people who are adults and have names like "N00bUberPwner" and "Killah345" there isn't a lot of difference. At least 'ShitOnMyChest' has charm.

Now I was thinking I should ask to get this name changed and put BFS on an alt so I don't lose it. I was thinking of changing it to my first name as that seems to be a trend nowadays, plus it's easier to remember. The amount of times people have got my alias wrong is understandable but it's getting tedious. Or I could chose a completely new and unique name but I don't sound like a fag. I mean one of the reasons I chose BFS is that is was unique in the sense that nobody would choose it. I would also want it to be memorable.

But should I? When we could change our aliases as much as we want it would get annoying when you would wonder who that new guy was with 7000 posts. Plus it seems too much a bother to ask wade to change it. That man is hard to get to, PMing/emailing him is out the question, he has a rep to take time with those. I could go on paltalk and ask him there as that's how most people change their aliases now. But to be honest I hate using paltak, even if he's on he's usually AFK. But when he is on, people start spamming "OMG WAID".

So wut?

TL;DR SHORT VERSION: Should I change my alias? If so/not discuss.
