God forbid they give into this request. Then maybe someone else will want a name change. And another. Then it would get to the point where the admins actually have to "admin"! That's practically work! -rolleyes-

Just you wait -- someday Berke Breathed will join the Nazi party and give that penguin different politics.

You'll be stuck with that fascist username and the tattoo.

What a coincidence, I want to change my name to abrg923. I hooked up with this chick who said it meant something to her once.

I feel for you, man, I went through something similar about 4 years ago and my ex's initials were in my passwords. Those were something I typed a lot so it took a lot to unlearn them :lol:

this seems like the easy solution. but actually they should just ban you for having multiple open accounts. after all, if they make exceptions for you just because it was years ago, next thing you know cats will be sleeping with dogs.

Re: Mod Request: Name Change
 
My recollection is that the reasons for limiting name changes have been explained elsewhere and that the rules tend to be applied fairly.

If mods/admins wanted to make things easier it'd be a cinch to just say that your screen name here is forerever i.e. can't ever be adjusted whatever the reason and no matter what your posting history.

Anyhoo, it remains the case that cases falling outside the general rules are considered individually and, as that is happening, I'll now close this thread before it morphs into something less than useful.

Re: Mod Request: Name Change
 
Just a reminder that such requests should normally be submitted via email/PM.

The OP realised this part way through the process hence dropping out of the thread until we'd all put our heads together.

As the more astute among you will see, all has now been resolved to our mutual satisfaction.
