I typically prefer GM-

I forget where I heard it, and correct me if I'm wrong.. but older bot programs couldn't detect GM-, and as such, that's why a few servers switched to that prefix, so as to make bot hunting easier. /wah

I don't like using GM subnames.
Guild Titles are enough for me.

Not when I only use 1 name, or I could have had the character names set to no names under 5 characters.
Then I could just go by Z or Zone

I prefer GM, GM- or [GM]. The first seems to be the most common one nowadays (to me atleast), while the second used to be pretty popular a few years ago, but scammer wise [GM] is probably the best as you can simply set up things so normal players can't put [] in their name. (To add it you'd actually have to go into your database).. so thats pretty much scammer proof aflteast.

I prefer having none, but simply "GM Username" is the only one that looks legitimate to me.
I hate being called a master of anything so I don't use any GM prefix.

I prefer GM-  =3  For the most part, servers with no GM tag usually end up becoming corrupted due to the fact that the GMs look like normal players.  Currently the server I am GMing has no GM tag, which will be fixed soon thankfully ^.^


Becoming a GM means you sacrifice a part of your soul forever, be prepared.

I don't like any prefixes myself. They seem to formal. If I was to choose one though it'd be GM *name*. I personally like using GM guilds to identify myself as one then anything else.

Those are the prefixes GMs use before their name to identify themselves. Nothing big or special.

I'd have to say that I generally prefer not seeing the prefixes / suffixes to the GM title. =P Mind, I do understand the idea that if you took away the ability to use a certain key [ such as [] ] that it'd be a hell of a lot harder to fake being one, but... Meh. xD I don't know, the prefixes / suffixes always make it feel less professional to me.
