That doesn't count as my definition of an alias... that's just a name change. :-) Aliasing is attempting to disguise your identity for whatever reason.

First of all, i definetly AM a cool kid, secondly, I dont really try to hide it, I mean, its really obvious that i cant possibly be what_console or some no name no one has ever heard of when i have 60 kills on defense. I do remember though, before I 'aliased' regulary, I joined impulse as ricky_smc and we played like 4 pugs without anyone catching on who i was, this includes you.
Of course me aliasing as someone nowadays is pointless since people like you are always on the lookout. Oh, and fyi, ive only ever aliased as what_console, ricky and random people from tempest, of course not including rs sith

Sorry for the delay in posting the below (100% scientifically accurate) point findings. I had a team of manatees crunching numbers all night. I also added a new choice for you people who felt that the list of options wasn't inclusive enough of your personal aliasing reasonings. Enjoy!

If your score is < 10...
Pat yourself on the back, you're safely in the douche-free zone.

If your score is 11-15...
Trouble may be brewing and you may be guilty of occasional douche-like behavior. Take heart though, it's not too late to turn it around!

If your score is 16-50...
You are most likely a douche, but you try to hide it.

If your score is > 50...
You are a douche and proud of it!
