How hard is it to change someone's user name?

Say for instance, I wanted to not be TGND any longer. How hard would it be for you all to change it - if at all possible.

I feel confident that the mods will let you change it. So what would you change it to? I wanna know!
 
Aps the point is that she changes it so that we cannot tell who she is anymore.

She's cloaking her ****

I have nothing to cloak.. :roll:

I was merely curious. Especially since I've blabbed over 3k posts in just a few months. If anything, I need to find a life. :?

But thanks for your speculation.. it's been noted. :)

Yes they could change it, but you would have to start from the beginning with your posts.

Post #0 :shock:
 
Your username could be changed with no loss of posts, thanks, or anything. We've done this for a few different users. It's usually a good idea if you do it to let folks know, so they know who you are. If this is something you want to do, you can PM me. Be aware, that we don't do this randomly; we don't want users changing their name every few months. It becomes confusing. There would need to be a reasonably good reason.
 
There have been a couple people who have changed their names here, so I know it can be done. No their post count did not get reset. PM the mods, probably CC, and ask how.

Damn you for beating me by 1 minute.
 
Damn, You can keep the posts huh....
 
Thanks, CC.

I will leave it for now to avoid speculation; as my inquiry had something to do with an incident that happened to me online in the distant past. It's just better to know these things before it's needed. Hopefully it won't be as I'm accustomed to this moniker.

I'm not sure if this relates, and you don't have to say, but the potential for cyberstalking has been a reason we have altered folks usernames in the past.

It wasn't a fair contest. Capt'n has a personal time machine with a built in temporal envelope to avoid paradoxes. He saw your post and then went back a couple minutes to post before you.

Careful, Capt'n, remember what happened last time you changed the phase converter without resetting the temporal envelop and everyone was seeing pages from the future?

I'm on the East Coast. To some, I'm in the future.

It's not that hard. You ain't special.

It was kinda cool, though. People were winning and losing at debates before they even posted.
 
Hugh did it and Lerxst did it.
 
Someone care to explain what is going on?

Are they swapping accounts?

Yea, it's kind of like musical chairs. I hear it's quite fun. Of course, there is always one more member than accounts to swap, so the last one gets banned.
