Who changed user names?

[j funk]

Have a few people had their names changed?

I may be imagining it but I'm sure I've seen avatars I recognised with new names, and people with thousands of posts whose names are new to me.

Or have some old people just come out of the woodwork?

I don't think you can change usernames.

 

[IDon'tOweYouAnything23]

I want to change mine because it's evidently shite.

You can change your user name, if you want to.

Register with a new name, stop using the one you're using.

That's no name change, that's a new account.

yes, you are correct
for a "new account" means your post count would go back to 0
where as if people simply could change their username, then their post count would remain the same
however, i think it is good that people cannot change their username and keep their post count
i have a feeling that certain people here(no, not me) would be bothering the mods with name changes all the time
and no i dont mean epBabe either...

Is New Zealand code for the Mar Glen area of Venice? Because I could swear I saw you walking a dog across the street yesterday.

So it was my imagination?

This is just a moan really cos my request was refused.

Like it aint quicker to click whatever button then change my name, rather than me signing up, entering my details then clicking the email confimation.

An also there's the inconvenience of having 0 posts again. Even if people don't like me, being disliked is better than being ignored. I'd probably get acused by Kewpie of being an alias / troll too unless I gave her prior notification and provided 2 forms of ID.

Our site administrator's time is limited.
He prefers to use his precious time for updating the mainpage and software maintenance rather than adjusting users' accounts.

Unfortunately vBulletin software does not have the function to fulfill your request.

I wasn't suggesting that. I just meant popularity is irellevant and that even if everyone hated eachother, that'd still be better than everyone not knowing who eachother was.

That's fair enough if it's one rule for everyone but I thought I'd seen some names change. I must've been mistaken

 

[Moonbeam]

Precious time

 

[Oh my god. it's Robby!]

well, i think its supposed to be the same rules for everyone
but maybe its not, maybe some people deserve to be given special treatment of a positive nature
and others deserve the opposite
who am i to judge all that?

I kinda like my forum username. Its an Ian Brown song "Sister Rose", maybe i shoulda picked a Morrissey song or somethin...i dunno. I'm annoyed with my chatroom name cos i made a mistake on it, i registered Scarlett o Hara but it shoulda been Scarlett O' Hara.....can that error be corrected?

I'm afraid if you registered a user name with typo, you can re-register.

Same rules apply to mainpage, chatroom and forums.
