look no one actually cares what name you have and selling them for USD is pretty sad but anyway let's get on with the guide
LESSON 1: HOW TO TELL IF YOUR NAME IS A "NAME SNIPE"
Think about the following: 1. is this a name a lot of users would want? 2. is this a name everyone will know the reference to (if there is one) 3. is this a name that cannot have many variations
(example of a name with a lot of "variations" would be "LightingCool", you could make accounts similar such as "IightningCool" "1ightingcool" "L1ghtningCool" etc)
If you answered yes to all 3 questions, there's a high possibility that your username is a namesnipe
Examples of "name snipes" that fit the above criteria: "Bob" "Lego" "Cool"
Now let's get on to lesson 2
LESSON 2: DIFFERENT TYPES OF "NAME SNIPES"
There are different types of name snipes and I have organized them into 3 categories:
1. Common word or name
Examples: bob, sam, joe, watermelon, egg, etc
2. Common figure
Examples: Justin_Bieber, BarackObama, etc
3. Highly wanted usernames
Examples: roblox, robloxian, coolkid, etc
LESSON 3: THE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF NAMESNIPES
There are 3 different levels of namesnipes that I have created.
1. Amazing, 2. Good, 3. Ok
Amazing: A name snipe almost every user would want to own, generally a short word or name.
Good: A name quite a few users would wish to have, can be a medium length word or name.
Ok: A word or phrase that is commonly known, but not frequently thought of.
LESSON 4: THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COOL USERNAMES AND 'NAME SNIPES'
So you want to know the difference huh. Well, let me explain it to ya. You may have a cool username, an example could be "Vortexted". Some people would argue this is a namesnipe, because it consists a real word (vortex) and could be commonly wanted. However, they would be wrong. This username is not a namesnipe, it is just a regular username. Yes it's a cool username, maybe upon seeing it you would wish you owned it, but it is not something a large majority of people would think of, therefore it is not a namesnipe, but rather a cool username.
(Most namesnipes are both cool usernames and namesnipes at the same time.)
So just know, there is a difference between a cool username, and an actual name snipe.
Another way to differenciate between a cool name and a name snipe is "would you want to pg this account just for it's name?" PGing accounts is bad sigh why do people do it... But this statement remains a good way to determine if a username you are uncertain of, is a namesnipe or not.
For some examples of cool usernames VS namesnipes
Vortexted VS Vortex
BlueBerryCake VS Blue
Coolified VS Cool
BobbyUser VS Bobby
LESSON 5: NUMBERS IN NAME SNIPES
Most of the time if your username has numbers, it wouldn't be considered a name snipe, however there are a few exceptions.
Here's an example of a namesnipe with a number in it:
B0b (because of how short and common it is)
LESSON 6: SPACES
There are some accounts with spaces in them, made from the first few years of ROBLOX. However, these are not namesnipes, regardless to popular belief. These would be classified under "cool usernames". It's not a namesnipe because most of them are words or names that no one would regularly care about.
LESSON 7: UNDERSCORES
A majority of usernames with underscores are not namesnipes, because there is most likely a non-underscore username already made of it.
Example of an underscore username: Barack_Obama
Example of a not underscore username: Al_ex
The difference is the fact that "alex" doesn't usually have a space between those letters, but a full####e####h as "Barack Obama" does.
Well this has been name snipe lessons with koolwater, hope you learned something just kidding this was a worthless thread
