Toons with names that look like they sat on the keyboard.

I recall seeing quite a lot of those over the years.

I think mostly they were the ones advertising those power leveling businesses.

I admired the ones that used just a series of lowercase Ls and uppercase I's (which in game just looked like ||||||||||) just because of how hard it must have been to log in and play as them.

"Can you invite ||||||||||?"
"He's already on the team."
"No, that's ||||||||||."
"How do I type that?"
"||||||||||, duh."
"Anyway, there's no room."
"Just kick ||||||||||, he's been an idle leach anyway"
"No I haven't!"
"Not you, ||||||||||. I meant ||||||||||"

God that must have taken forever to write ;) .  I remember seeing so many numbered variations of 'Legolas'  that it got to the point of seeing "L360la5" and beyond that i someimes forgot who they were trying to immitate.

I remember a few times trying to invite someone by name and kept saying they didn't exist because they had letters that looked like one thing, but were something else.

I always wanted to make a toon called "That Tank" and imagine the chats.

Invite That Tank
which tank?
That Tank,
What, him?
No, That Tank.

on so on.......

I remember recruiting for TF's and somebody would say, invite zzWolverine or something like that.
I would send the invite and get the no such name message.
It would turn out to be zz Wolverine or something like that.

There was this one time that I fell for trying to invite Mike Hunt.
Thought that I would never live that down.

Mine was H HeLiBeBC NOFNe, which was a thing.  Well, several things.

Parallel Illusion. Everyone was dressed as a Phantom Army decoy from Illusion Control. It was pretty awesome. I joined after their heydey so I only ever saw 3-4 at a time, but apparently at one point there were enough to overwhelm PVP zones...basically breaking the Siren's Call bounty system. lol



There was also a mirror group on redside but I never joined them. Illicit Illusions somethingorother.

I saw Prestige Holder 1 and Prestige Holder 2 and so on.

Of course that was my friend rolling up toons to join my SG.
It still counts.
