Mods: Phonetically, the second "R" in my username is silent. Please delete it (or make it invisible) so that we don't have any more embarassing mispronunciations.

I like to roll my r's when I say your name, like a Latin lover.

I'd like to change my name to "bigfreakinlion". I registered on these boards almost 5 years ago and have recently come back. Also, my maturity level has decreased.

Canis Firebrand 05-09-07 05:51 PM

Alright.. I think the joke has gotten to be enough. ;)

I'd like to request either my name be put back the way it was, or change it to my gamertag. Preferably the latter. ;)

Canis Firebrand 05-09-07 06:36 PM

-ohbfrank- some real comedians here.. ;)

Canis Firebrand 05-09-07 06:46 PM

Phew.. Thank you.. It's good to be my old self again.. ;)

I was being serious! I'd really like it changed please.

Hey, I'm not backwards anymore!

I still don't see why they can't change my name to "Enormous Genitals." :mad:

Doug Heffernan 05-10-07 01:59 PM

Is the sitcom you got your name from going off the air grounds for a name change? Guess not, huh - there's always syndication :(

No one cares about how big your vagina is. -ohbfrank-

I personally miss "Mrs Nesbit" - that little chuckle I got everytime someone posted "I thought you were a woman" whether they knew or not, is now gone forever :(

Nesbit, you should have thought about the way it made us feel :(

Sayeth "Mrs. Doug Heffernan"

Josh H 05-18-07 03:27 PM

Any chance my name could be shorted to Josh H. (since I know I couldn't make any major changes given how long I've been around here)?

Like others, I was used to signing up with my real name years ago as other sites required it, and it kind of sucks now since searching my name on google brings up thousands of posts here. :D

Groucho 05-18-07 03:37 PM

You might say that Josh's current username has been around so long that it's gathering dust. ;)

I remember when I was vaporware before randyc changed it to waporvare...

I'm with you on that. When I signed up years ago, I thought I had to use my real name. I wish I could get it changed to BrentL or Brent L. or something like that.

Because that would be a lie and we all know that dvdtalk is all about truth.

IT'S NOT A LIE!

At least according to George Costanza - "It's not a lie of YOU believe it's true."

Nick Danger 05-20-07 09:20 AM

You could go with joshblast and brentblast.

I think it's reasonable to let them remove their last names. I wouldn't want my username to link easily to the real-life me. I'm sure X agrees.

Any news on whether these changes are permissible?

Thanks!

I think you and Brett are in luck because there is precedence. JasonF was able to have his last name removed.

I'm sure a mod/admin would be willing to help but have not read this thread. Maybe if you email one of them you'd get an answer quicker.

I'm sure they would oblige for the safety of their members. Just email and ask.

Josh H 05-21-07 07:28 PM

Yeah, I had the same thought, I reported the post to send the e-mail last night, but I'll shoot X a direct e-mail to make sure he sees mine and Brent's request.
