Yeah, that was an option back when admins wanted to change someone's username for you... but honestly, I think it's better that they can't do it anymore.

FAQ:
How do I update my profile info?
Look, it’s on you to keep your profile details current. Most importantly, don't forget to update your email if it changes. You can edit pretty much everything in your profile, but your username is off-limits. Once you pick a handle, that's itβ€”it's yours forever. If things get really crazy, you can try asking the admin to swap it out, but don't expect much unless you've got a damn good reason.

underline that last sentence

That actually came straight from the forum admins. It wasn't us; it was the vBulletin crew. The forum moderator made it clear that NO ONE is allowed to change their username unless it’s just minor formatting stuff, like fixing capitalization, adding a hyphen or space, or adjusting an accent mark.

Seriously, what is wrong with the mod? They just let anyone change their username whenever they feel like it without any rules at all.

The problem is this forum is too crowded, and everyone posts so much that people are constantly changing their usernames.

How can you say there isn't πŸ˜•

A forum member who used the handle "John Smith" had their username changed to "Ignoramus"β€”though, mind you, all their post counts, personal data, and everything else stayed exactly the same.
This whole thing happened back around June of '06, I believe.

Technically, the option is still there. It’s just that nobody really does it anymore.

So, who is this supposed "head honcho" of the whole forum anyway? Has anyone actually laid eyes on him, or does he just stay tucked away in some ivory tower, never bothering to descend to our level?

I don't want to be anonymous; I see no reason to be.
Thanks!

Usernames can't be changed. πŸ˜‰

What does that have to do with the topic?
