This is rumor control...

Just to give everyone a heads up. We've had quite a few people in the last few months looking to change their board ID.
Up to now we've done it, but it's really getting out of hand and creating more work for the admin/board management staff.

So, for the future, name changes will only be done in extreme cases. I understand if you're
registered on 10 different prop forums as Bob123, and if you registered here you registered
as Bob1243. That's fixable and understandable.

But going from Bob123 to SuperstudmuffinXXX... well... no.

Besides, Dom and Kevin are already fighting over that one.

If you registered with a 501st ID (as some have done) and decide you want to "fit in" with a
more themeatic ID, strongly consider the name you'll be changing to because you'll be stuck
with it for the foreseeable future. Also, please keep in mind the work you're creating if you
decide to change your ID. Once your ID is changed, that's it, no going back.

We are still willing to change your custom titles.

Thank you for your cooperation... Good night.

Russ

I'd believe it. And if not, I bet Adonis would throw in for the fight over it.

Russ, thanks for all that you admins do to keep us all in line and happy. I really do appreciate having this little corner of the internet to come to.

Hey, if you have a minute, could you tell me the set-by-step process involved with changing a name? I'm on another forum where I wish I had a different name. I'm just curious about what it takes to change a name. Until I read this thread I didn't even think it was possible!

-HUMVEE Driver

wait wait ... change mine to 'Taj_wants_cookies'
or 'give_taj_cookies'
or 'I_keel_you_4_cookies'

Sorry for the late, late reply.

@Max... it really boils down to getting the Admin/tech support guru to do it if the software supports it.

With the software we're running here it's possible to modify usernames. It's a pain,
but it can be done. I'm not sure about other boards. On the old EZboards you really couldn't do it. The newer phpBB boards are a bit more flexible. If you're talking about the WPE... I don't know why they can't do it. You need someone with Admin access though to do it. Moderators can't.

"Errr... Roger that's a 2-1-6..."

I'd like to switch mine up from Agustus G. to Breach as my Bypass kit is up and running and I've been hacking everything I could reach at Dragoncon 2014. Hopefully I can run a bypass at the next Colony Sweep Westin in 2015.
