Name Changing

[W_conneely]

Does anyone know how you change your user name.. my one at the moment is BORING!!

i need a decent one...hmmmm

Think of what you'd like it to be, and PM Jordan. It's not an everyday option most likely because it could easily be used as a tool by jerky people to create havok in the forums.

Oh and if you don't mind a suggestion for a name, I'd choose:

1. Pikachu
2. Bred'n'Butta
3. Lefty

Once you pick it your stuck with it...

vBulletin does allow you to change your username... problem is, you have to due it on the vBulletin control panel, which only admins and the webmaster can access, so you're outta luck, unless you can bribe Jordan to become an admin. j/k

interesting....

You can do that? Wait, can't you just have jordan change ur name without making u an admin?

Sure, you could ask Jordan to change your name, but just realize how busy he is, and how many PM's he gets per day. He doesn't have much time each day to be online, let alone enough time to change people's names everytime they ask.

 

[Jordan]

If you would like to change your name for spelling or typographical errors, I will be more than happy to do it for you. But, I will no longer be changing names for novelty.

I got an idea Jordan. Say if someone wants their name changed you should charge like 100 posts to get there name changed.

 

[Zero]

Nah dude then i'd be down 100 posts, o wait i dont care about post count......good idea Tazz:thumbsup:

 

[Jon]

You should install maybe the store hack where you can have some many posts to buy a name change.

 

[Zero]

Or people could just sign up as a new name...........

 

[Jon]

True...

Yes, that's an idea, but I really don't want people constantly changing their names. Say, for example, if I changed my name from Jordan to...GT3 Racer, or something completely different like that. Now, all references to me made in posts (including quotes) are completely out of place, and won't make sense to anyone who wasn't aware of my name change. Imagine that going on with not just one, but almost every member, and you have a lot of confusion on your hands! :weird:

 

[mayorbill11_]

only do it for the cool members you feel like doing it for. and make it so the names have to be similar- ish.

like how ZeroCool went to just plain Zero.

 

[sn00pie]

Define a "cool member".

 

[Zero]

No i asked Jordan if he would change mine to Zero, he didnt pick the name I did.

What you talkin bout sn00pie?

 

[-Fred-]

i wanna be renamed JamalaramalaDingDongRock.

um... not really. like Ghostrider said, once you pick it, you're stuck with it... you need better imagination, that's all.

That would actually be a good name change. Clever.

Haha, that would be pretty cool, so yes, I'll do it.

This forum and the games that sparked the idea will still be here in 4 years.
