Sorted.
I just realized I actually messed up and requested a username starting with a lowercase letter. Is that going to be an issue? 🕺

Hey, can a bruise turn into a hematoma? I’m tired of screaming about 😁
LOL, sure it can. Shoutout to PP Nica 🙂

Hey, I don't really want my name and birth year showing up on my profile anymore... is there any way I can change my nickname to Michael Morales83? 🙂
Yeah, you can. Just send Nicole the link to this post.

Hey 😉
Longtime user here. Read the first post about nickname changes.
I’m pretty aware (maybe like 80% 😛) that if those rules are strictly enforced, this request probably won't fly.
But... it's the holiday season, it's my first time asking for a name change, I've been active here for years, and I've never broken any rules 🙂 ...
And honestly, there isn't some huge shift in who I am or what I'm doing.
Back when I signed up in 2006, my favorite handle from various old internet forums violator was already taken.
Didn't really think much of it then. Just wanted an account fast, so I went with boldhound17.
Looking at the logs, the user "violator" hasn't posted since Dec 18, 2012, and hasn't been active since Dec 28, 2012—so it's been over 9 years.
So, I'd like to kindly ask if I could grab the name violator (maybe just with a lowercase v) or, if that's not possible, maybe something like violatorUSA
Hopefully, I explained myself okay without being too much of a pest 😵. Hoping for a good outcome.
Even if it can't be approved, I hope it's at least considered.
Best wishes to everyone for 2022. 👍

I’m reading, I’m reading 🙂 ... but over the last 15 years or so, I’ve seen—and commented on—plenty of precedents bigger than this one.
Whether it's changing nicknames or much tougher stuff.
I won't get into the technical side of how changes work; maybe it really is a massive headache.
Or maybe it isn't...
Anyway, I'll be staying dave 😛 for now... or for the near future...

Lol, this looks silly now, but Casey Bennett deleted her own post in the meantime 😛

I went ahead and deleted my previous post because I realized I was jumping the gun by replying too quickly. Your second post hadn't even surfaced yet, otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered deleting mine in the first place.
I believe we can get something moving here, but I’m going to need you to bear with me for a few days. Things are just incredibly backed up on other projects right now 😉

It wasn't that I forgot you; it's just that your situation is a bit more complicated than most 😬
there might be more activity later tonight, though I haven't decided which handle you'll be using yet since I'm still in talks with Nick 😁
All the best to you as well!

Lots of people tell me that😛 😬
maybe more tonight, I just don't know what your new handle will be yet. I'm negotiating with Nick😁
Thanks 😉. As long as I'm not getting cut off mid-sentence like that first (deleted 😛) post.
If I have one thing, it's patience 🧐
all the best to you too!
Likewise👍

I am not particularly fond of nicknames—and honestly, my current handle feels far too long 😬
Would it be possible to go by just Gerald Jackson5? Pretty please! I checked, and there is an inactive account that hasn't been touched in nearly ten years 😉

Just like I am doing for boldhound17, Gerald Jackson5 is currently working on this. Nice is a bit tied up at the moment, so they won't be able to get to it in the next few days. Hopefully, it will be finished soon.

Sure thing. Just reach out to Nice.
