Just "we don't do name changes"? No explanation?

Tass - That is a bit of a lie though isn't it, I mean people have got their names changed. What about Tibs (who used to be -Tibs-) and Squeek of course, I think there have been one or two others but I'm only completely sure about the 2 I mentioned.

You need to be special to get a name change =[.

There's a difference between "We will occasionally do a favour for a long-time contributing veteran to the site, and if it so happens that what they'd like is a name change, maybe we can come to some arrangement" and "If you ask us, we'll change your name"

Also, just so we're clear: I know nothing about any name changes that have ever happened, or why they might have happened, I'm just pointing to a distinction, not referencing any sort of policy as I'm aware of it. So far as I've ever seen, no account names have ever been changed.

I'm just bitter because I was in talks with JasonKey about changing my name, then going through the proper motions of emailing Synth etc etc and nothing ever happened. Was told it doesn't get done, then later suddenly Tibs had his changed for him and it just seemed a little bias.

So ya, bitter.

Wish I could get my name changed to Destiny. It's my username for Rithum and Sprite's derailed gaming site.

**Gibson63** · 06-18-2008, 10:34 PM

yeah

i wish i could change name too ... oh well.....

**MystictheHedgehog** · 06-18-2008, 10:36 PM

Yeah, I got over that Hedgehog phase a LOOONG time ago...just a ~Mystic~ or something along those lines would be nice, but alas, oh well. Everyone is just SOL.

Haha, am I the only one in this thread who actually likes their username??!!

Tex **** the world!

It is not that I don't like my name, I wouldn't have chosen it otherwise.

It is that I wanted to portray a different image and would rather be called "Nauticus" than TheRapingDragon or Reaper. Even though most people call me the other two more haha.

For a few months now I've been interested in collapsing my name to just 'JS'. My FF7 kick ended several years ago, and it's a nice set of two letters. xD

Either way, most just call me JS to begin with, so it's not that big of a deal. ;D
