So who has kept the longest online screen name

[SZLiao214]

I made my aim name back when i was in 6th grade. This makes it about 10 years old.

How about you?

*small update*
So far we have sdifox at 27-28 years and Zim Hosien kinda in first place

 

[SparkyJJO]

about 7 or 8 years for mine.

 

[Brainonska511]

The current name has been around for about 3.5 years (late 2004).

I've had a SN of some alias for the past 10-12 years though.

 

[djheater]

1998 here as well.

 

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

8th grade. 2000. 8 years.

Unfortunately I don't use my 6th grade SN anymore =( My current SN that I use with newer friends is merely 4 years old.

[BrownTown]

8th grade, 1999 for this one. ITs actually kind of funny, be and a friend were gonna play counter strike together and I had a different name before, but the person I was gonna play with didn't know it so I changed my name to "BrownTown" since that was my nickname in school so he would recognize who I was. And here nearly 10 years later I am still using it. No good reason for having it, but can't really think of a good reason to get rid of it either.

 

[Juno]

7th grade, 1997.

edit: i don't remember my ICQ number.

 

[RbSX]

1998, ICQ 15399906.

I accidentally deactivated it a few years back so it's 21918321 now, but I haven't used that in years.

 

[alfa147x]

i get a new one every 6 months

 

[Loop2kil]

I have been loop2kil since i was on a 14.4 modem with AOhell which puts me early 90's and ~15-16 years.

 

[Mrvile]

I made my original AIM SN back in 5th grade...now that I'm going to be a sophomore in college, that makes it about 8.5 years old.

Every other user name is either the original AIM SN or just plainly "mrvile" without the numbers.

 

[Eli]

8235397 - ICQ

 

[Quiksilver]

MY AIM S/N is 13 years old.

 

[slayer202]

I can't remember when I made it, but i've used the same aim screen name forever and I am now a senior in college

 

[DaveJ]

I've been DaveJ since my BBS days, so that would be 1991 or so. Damn, this thread makes me feel old.

 

[jman19]

1996 for me.

 

[I Saw OJ]

1997-'98 ish I would say.

 

[SKORPI0]

ICQ # 506474 - late Nov/early Dec 1996.
AIM - mid 1997
MSN Messenger - late 1999.
Yahoo - Mid 1998.

 

[ChAoTiCpInOy]

[Glitchny]
