Nickname change (read first post!)

So, could I grab gentlebadger5 instead? 🙂

Actually, maybe try it without the dot? Is Nesai even available...

Is Pivec available?
If that's taken, how about Pivec2208?

No. The reason is simple—it's the very first post in this thread.

What’s even the point of swapping out your username when you’ve barely even put together ten or twenty posts? Honestly, it’d be way less of a headache to just spin up a brand new account and call it a day. 🙄

I don't get the logic behind it either—but hey, I'm feeling uncharacteristically generous today, so let them have their little moment. 😬

Nah, can we just ditch the period then?

Get in touch with the admin...

Where did things go wrong on my end? I sent a private message to request the change on the 15th, and then again on the 21st after noticing nothing had happened yet.

😕

It was probably because of that ":)" smiley at the end of your username. It’s been updated now, but if you run into any glitches because of it, we might have to switch your handle back to the old one.

Can Michael Williams11 be changed to C.arrie?

You're going to have to hang tight for a bit. There's an agreement being worked out regarding name changes right now.

Actually, no, that change won't fly because the boss ruled that symbols like ".,?!" aren't allowed in usernames. It's part of the new rules that are going live pretty soon.

Hey, haven't touched this account in forever but felt like jumping back in. Any chance I could get a partial nickname change to motive? Checked and it's available. I know my post count is pretty low, but hopefully you guys can work with me.

Thanks in advance.

Not gonna happen. That's not a correction, it's a total rebrand. You'd be a completely different person. 😉

Why not just start over with a fresh account—call it "Motives" or something? It’s not like the posts you’ve put out here are some kind of historical masterpieces that need to be preserved for future generations. ☕

Thanks, but I’d still really appreciate it if you could change my handle.

Can you change my name to lonerider4?

Yeah, I can do that.

Respectful greetings, Moderators,
I've wanted to change my username, Megan Hughes71, for a long, long time.

Given how many years I've spent on this Forum, I’d appreciate the help with this.

The new handle will be: Wihailag

It's the name most people know me by outside of this Forum, so it's about time I made it official here too.

Thanks in advance. I hope this is fine with all the moderators. Honestly? I haven't liked the name Megan Hughes71 for ages.

Are the moderators even reading this thread?

They are. I'm not hanging out on the Forum 24/7; some of us actually have lives. Regardless, no, your username isn't changing. You could have thought about that when you registered. Wihailag isn't even close to Megan Hughes71. Any future posts making similar requests will be deleted without warning.

People, just read the first post in this thread. Thanks.

Mine hasn't been updated yet... I wonder what the hold-up is?

Could you tell me exactly WHERE you submitted the request to change your username? 🙄

Greetings!
Right from the get-go, the fact that I have two "r"s in my username has been a bit of a nuisance. I originally went with this spelling because there was already a user named Samuel Morgan4 on here—though they aren't active anymore—but I wasn't quite ready to let go of the name entirely.
Is there any way I could swap out that second "r" for the ® symbol?
Please 🙂

Noppe, the boss says no.

Well, would Silver work then?

Here’s the situation—the new rule regarding signatures doesn't allow for any special characters at all, which means even an asterisk is out. Anderlon made that quite clear, so I suppose I have to abide by it.

Hey, can I change my username from "mistysailor20" to just "mistysailor" without the numbers? 🙂 🙂

Yeah, you can, just reach out to the Moderator.

Would it be possible to change my handle to Christian Harris2? I assume the name Nick doesn't lose its identity or recognition, right?

Also, I was wondering if the username could perhaps be in brown? If that isn't an option, then maybe black would work instead.

I hope I'm not asking for too much here. Thank you.

🙂

I suppose I should check with the admin to see if this is even allowed. As for the colors, I think Jacob Foster11 already covered everything for you. 😉

Good grief, people. Please, try to educate yourselves. 🤦

Can we go with Dado (maybe adding some extra characters if Dado is taken)?
If that first option doesn't work, let's at least try the second one—Dado.

No. We aren't doing any more special characters like @, _, *, font>

I wasn't aware of that. So, would that be brown, I suppose?
